The Better Man (Silver Buckle Brides Romances Book 2)

Description

After tragedy broke her family, Laramee fled her family’s once beloved Colorado ranch. But the news that her ailing parents are considering selling the place lures her home after five bitter years.

Jamie Cannon spent a decade redeeming himself from the mistakes of his youth. As a successful partner in his family’s real estate business, he’s back on solid ground. If only his family believed it.

When Jamie needs an escape from the Denver social scene, the Stone’s request for an appraisal of their remote ranch gives him the perfect excuse to get away. But Laramee Stone is as determined to drive this paper pusher off her family’s property as Jamie is dedicated to fulfilling his assignment. The two eventually agree to a truce for the sake of the Stone’s financial future, but as Laramee and Jamie work together, they reveal glimpses into the tragedies that destroyed their pasts. In one another’s company, old hurts heal, and they feel whole.

But ex-fiancé Sutton is back. This man who saved Laramee and her parents after tragedy struck wants Jamie gone and Laramee back. Laramee feels inclined to accept his proposal, leaving Jamie struggling with the questions that prevent him from declaring his own feelings.

Are Laramee’s feelings for Sutton more about indebtedness than love? Could Jamie’s personal baggage also threaten Laramee’s happiness? And which, if either of them, is The Better Man for Laramee Stone?
