Lucky River Ranch · #2
Wyatt
Roping horses leads to riding cowboys in this sexy friends-to-lovers, fake-dating, lessons-in-seduction romance by Jessica Peterson.
One fake dating plan.
One cowboy Casanova.
One very real case of falling way too hard.
Wyatt Rivers is the perfect no-strings hookup―a cowboy Casanova who rocks a Stetson, looks smokin' hot in his Wranglers, and never rests his head on the same pillow twice.
He's exactly what she's looking for. If only he wasn't also her best friend…
Sally Powell is back in her hometown of Harstville, Texas, waiting for her dream job to start thousands of miles away. While she's here, she hopes to end an epic dry spell in the bedroom, preferably with a local cowboy. If the rumors are true, they really do ride harder and stay on longer.
Wyatt has been her best friend since second grade, and she's been in love with him for almost as long. But he's as wild and untamed as a colt that can't be broken―not to mention, totally out of her league with his good looks and heartbreaker reputation.
Then Sally gets to thinking: since Wyatt is such an expert, why doesn't he teach her the ropes of how to find a hookup? He begrudgingly agrees, and a little fake flirting leads to fake dating, which leads to real kissing, which leads to real…well, everything else.
And let her just say, the rumors are absolutely true.
Sally wants so badly to be Wyatt's last rodeo. But she's leaving town soon, and even if she wasn't, she's not sure Wyatt would ever change his playboy ways.
Cowboys can't be tamed. And apparently, neither can hearts.
Wyatt is an interconnected standalone novel in the Lucky River Ranch series, perfect for fans of Elsie Silver and Lyla Sage.
The series
Tucked away in the wide-open hills of small-town Texas, the Lucky River Ranch series brings together slow-burning desire, second chances, and the kind of emotional intimacy that sneaks up on you like dusk on a summer day. These are stories about love that’s hard-earned—messy, tender, and deeply rooted in a place where family ties run deep and the land remembers everything.
Read full series description
The series orbits around the people who live and work on or around the sprawling Lucky River Ranch—cowboys with complicated pasts, fiercely independent women who aren’t afraid to want more, and the kind of close-knit community where nothing stays secret for long. Each book follows a new couple, but the emotional threads between them weave a shared tapestry of love, healing, and homecoming.
At its core, the series explores the tension between what we’re born into and what we choose—whether that’s a place, a person, or a future we never thought we’d want. There’s a quiet strength to the characters and the land they call home, and the writing leans into that rhythm: steady, heartfelt, and a little bit wild around the edges.
With its blend of Western charm, rich emotional arcs, and deeply satisfying romance, Lucky River Ranch offers readers a front-row seat to stories that feel as lived-in as a favorite flannel shirt and just as comforting. For anyone who loves small-town romance with a rugged soul and a tender heart, this is a series that stays with you.
