The hottest cowboy in Coldwater is about to steal her heart a second time…

Too fast, too young—that sums up Ryland Ross’s marriage to Nova Carson. Ten years after their divorce, Ryland has his own horse ranch and an uncomplicated life…until the past blows everything up. Risqué photos of Ryland and Nova taken years ago resurface. And while Ryland is willing to help his ex smooth over the situation, he’s blindsided by the desire that springs back to life.

If her boss’s weaselly son makes the photos public, Nova could lose the photography job she loves. But reconnecting with Ryland is a risk. The hot, charming cowboy has always known how to get under her skin…and into her bed. Maybe it’s the lure of ex sex. Or maybe it’s time to admit that when a cowboy lassos your heart, there’s no escape…

There's a podcast called God Awful Movies, where they break down terrible, usually Christian, movies. For one of the movies, starring Christian nationalist David A.R. White, one of the hosts makes the comment that "Christian morality ruins these people's lives."

I feel like that's the case here. The photos are not even that explicit. Even if they were, people should have been more outraged at the fact that a couple's privacy was violated, not ~scandalous sexy pictures~. They were also literally married! I hate Christian-coded romance novels😭

good story

Second chance trope after smarmy ex boyfriend got into computer and stole some pictures. Coldwater, Texas, is the place to be for hot cowboys.

This short story is filled with shenanigans, heat, humor, and smalltown meddling.
The fact that the hero and heroine have known each other all their lives and were previously married, makes the reunion and its heat and heart believable. It was a real quick read, a perfect for a quick distraction from reality.
