Riley Benton Cowboys break hearts. It's a known fact. But my career as a romance planner has me moving back to my hometown of Kissing Ridge—a town so full of cowboys you can't enter a room without bumping into a Stetson. And I don't date cowboys. Not that it matters. I build romance for others… not myself. There's no way I'm falling for a steer wrestler with a sinful smile and awkward rambles. I've already had one cowboy break my heart. I don't intend to make it two. Jackson Sutherland Riley Benton is all my daydreams brought to life. And despite that fact, he doesn't make me self-conscious when my mouth runs away with me and I blurt out random things. I'm pretty sure he thinks I'm cute, too. We have a connection, and if he'd just let himself accept it and move past the friend zone, we could be beautiful together. But he's more stubborn than a steer who hates the wash rack. I'm used to working hard for what I want, but how do I convince him to risk his heart and kiss another cowboy? Cowboys Can't Kiss is book one in the Kissing Ridge Cowboys series. It features a hopelessly romantic yet awkward cowboy and a guarded former escort-turned-romance planner who thinks the friend zone will keep his heart safe. A friends-to-lovers story with a unique first "date" and all the found family you wish you had can be found in Kissing Ridge. Pass the hummus and remember to look up when the stars are out.
