Get it for just 99¢ through the end of launch week!*** A year in godforsaken Storafalt, Wyoming? No big deal…or so traveling tutor Veronica Silver tells herself. She needs hands-on experience with a special group of students to qualify for a grant, and her assigned passel of ranch kids are special cases, all right. Ronnie loves a challenge, but pitted against a small town’s far-too-active grapevine and a woeful lack of amenities, she worries she won’t be able to hack it. With the education system in Storafalt sorely lacking, rancher John Lundstrom thought hiring a private tutor would ease some of his considerable stress. What he didn’t expect was a powerful mutual attraction with Ronnie or her steadfast refusal to let him properly court her. She’s on a one-year assignment and wants no entanglements when it’s time to go home to North Carolina. An unplanned pregnancy and Ronnie’s ensuing deception spins the Lundstrom ranch into a major upheaval. John refuses to let Ronnie run away with his daughter, but he may be forced to compromise when her homesickness threatens to drive a wedge between the two lonely hearts once and for all. ___ Note: Teaching the Cowboy is a "fish out of water" story in which cultures clash in a middle-of-nowhere cowboy community. It contains scenes of erotic sensuality, references to same-sex relationships, and tongue-in-cheek dialogue about things Southerners don't discuss in polite company. less

No one expected a womanizer like Joachim “Mojo” Koch to experience love at first sight, much less Mojo himself, but he’s become the newest victim of the “Storafalt Switch.” Now that he’s met new schoolteacher Derrin Copeland, he sees the light. In a place where men outnumber women two to one, cowboys have to straighten up and fly right if they want to win a lady, and Derrin’s got the quiet fortitude that makes Mojo want to settle down. Unfortunately, his own family doubts he can hack it... moreNo one expected a womanizer like Joachim “Mojo” Koch to experience love at first sight, much less Mojo himself, but he’s become the newest victim of the “Storafalt Switch.” Now that he’s met new schoolteacher Derrin Copeland, he sees the light. In a place where men outnumber women two to one, cowboys have to straighten up and fly right if they want to win a lady, and Derrin’s got the quiet fortitude that makes Mojo want to settle down. Unfortunately, his own family doubts he can hack it. He worries that they’re right. Derrin didn’t move to Wyoming on Christmas Eve to find a man, but now she can’t imagine being without one in particular. Mojo’s the perfect balance to her timid reclusiveness—he makes her want to connect instead of hide. In fact, he could be the bridge joining her to her new community. But just when she thinks she’s gotten the charmingly assertive ranch hand figured out, he flips the script. Something’s holding Mojo back. Holiday magic might have brought them together, but maybe now it’s up to the wallflower to keep them from drifting apart.
