She's rodeo royalty. He's nothing but a drifter chasing a dream. So how much trouble can a fake date create in a town overrun with cowboys?
Daughter of a wealthy cattle station owner, Mandy is the wallflower who prefers to take care of her family, her herd, and horses. But when her father hires someone else to manage the station she was born to run, Mandy makes a plan to retaliate...
Rigsy only came into town to find a date for a friend—not get roped into fake dating one of the famous Muster Sisters! Pretending to be in a relationship with the sweet-smiling stockwoman to help achieve his goals, seems simple enough. Yet with Mandy's father gunning for Rigsy to leave town, her scheme may be the only thing that can keep his hopes alive.
But when the couple's unexpected passions collide with their ambitions, they become rivals in the race for their individual dreams that could cost them everything—including each other!
Settle into the saddle for this charming, heartfelt story of love, family, and friendship, found in the most remote corner of the outback in this edition of the international bestselling small-town series of Elsie Creek.
