Goodreads Synopsis
When a cowboy falls, he falls hard. Even for the woman who's already halfway out the door.
Zane Wyatt has sworn off women and the heartbreak they bring. But one unexpected afternoon with a curvy influencer shatters his resolve. Now she’s in his small town, lighting up his ranch, and testing every wall he’s built around his guarded heart.
Capri Sutton lives her life in front of a camera—smiles polished, posts perfect. But behind the filters, she’s just a single mom searching for stability and a place to call her home. The last thing she expects to find in the Texas Hill Country is him—a brooding, maddeningly handsome cowboy with eyes that see right past her perfect filters.
She’s sunshine and sass. He’s grump and grit. She’s got the world watching. He’s got walls that only she can tear down.
The clock is ticking. Their chemistry is explosive. And if they’re not careful, one magical afternoon might be the only one they ever get.

Review
I received an Advance Reader Copy from the publisher, via BookSirens. This in no way impacted on my view.
When influencer Capri Sutton is challenged by a handsome cowboy for taking photos near his land, she never expected that interaction would change her life. Zane Wyatt is very secretive and protective of his land and his family, and thinks the worst when he sees the beautiful Capri next to his fence. Realising he made a mistake, he invites her back to take as many photos as she wants, and soon he knows he never wants her, or her daughter Maddie.
This was such a fun and cute novella, that I wish was longer. Capri and Zane had chemistry which was off the charts, and though it was quick how they got together, it was fate - they were just meant to be together. I adored the way that Zane made sure to include Maddie in the different activities they did, fully respecting Capri as her mother, and making sure it was clear he was in it for the long haul. There's hints to the other books in the series, and I'm really intrigued by the extended cast of characters.
