About Just My Buckin’ Luck:

🌼 Daisy Lou Ramble seemingly has it all. A loving family, loyal friends and the ranch that has been in her family for generations. The only thing missing is a man. But she swore off cowboys for good after getting her heartbroken. That is until her dad hires a new ranch hand. An attractive, adorably charming cowboy who is exactly what she needs to p**s off her cheating ex that just rolled back in to town to try and win her back.

🤠 Chase “Junior” Coleman is leaving his hometown, and all of its drama, behind for a new start. He didn’t realize this new start would include fake dating a beautiful cowgirl to fend off her stubborn ex but he happily agrees. Tensions are high, attraction is deep and the lines of what is real and fake quickly blur. Can he finally find the home he has always wanted in Ramble Ranch or will his past catch up to him before he can settle in?

For those who love:
-Dual POV
-Forced proximity
-Fake dating
-Witty banter
-Found family
-Small town
-Cowboy/ranch romance
