Small Town Rancher

Small Town BWWM Romance Books

By: Serena Jasper

Narrated by: Lacy Laurel

A spicy small-town enemies-to-lovers romance between a strong Black woman and a blue-eyed rancher with way too many secrets.

Imani arrives in this dusty little town as part of her government-contracted job:

Discover this small town’s scientific secrets—and keep it quiet.

Then she meets him.

Ajax.

Six-foot-three of pure trouble with blue eyes, a busted-up heart, and enough family drama to fill a country song. He’s the oldest brother in his family of local celebrities—the one everyone warns her about.

He glares instead of smiles.

He’s tall, blond, and more of an alphahole than the friendly country boy she expected.

They clash from day one.

Imani is too much of a bold city girl for him.

Ajax is too bitter and harsh for her.

But when tempers flare and secrets spill, chemistry ignites like a wildfire on the prairie.

Imani thought she would never end up with a white guy.

Ajax swore he’d never fall in love again.

He sure as hell didn’t plan on falling for her.

Tropes you’ll find inside:

Enemies to lovers
Grumpy / sunshine dynamic
Blue-eyed alpha cowboy
Black woman heroine
Small-town family drama
Off-the-charts heat

This is a spicy interracial romance standalone with a happily-ever-after ending and heat intended for grown folks only.

Love Serena Jasper!

This book is so good with well developed characters. Lacy Laurel is one of the best narrators. I wish the epilogue was over a longer period of time so the reader could bask in their new love and finally the FMC self love.

Great feel-good story

I would recommend this story to others. It was a fantastic second chance at Love
