The Fugitive Cowboy’s Baby by Layla Valentine

He was supposed to be a fresh start.
Instead, he became the one man she could never let go.

HER:
I came back to my hometown for a funeral.
I never expected to stay for a cowboy.
Houston was supposed to be my future, but all it did was burn me out. Then my uncle died and left me his struggling ranch.
Now I’m trading deadlines for dirt roads, determined to turn the place into a petting zoo and guest retreat.
Then Cole Bartow walks into my life.
He’s arrogant, handsome, impossible to resist, and hiding something. He won’t talk about his past. He won’t let me take his picture. And when the police come looking for him, I realize the man I’m falling for may destroy everything.
Including my heart.

HIM:
I came to town looking for somewhere to disappear.
The last thing I needed was Kat Naylor.
She’s stubborn, beautiful, and determined to save a ranch everyone else gave up on. Working beside her makes it impossible to keep my distance, and one night in her cabin changes everything.
But Kat deserves the truth.
And the truth could ruin her.
So when my past catches up with me, I do the only thing I can… I leave.
Now I know she’s carrying my child.
And I’ll risk everything to win back the family I never thought I deserved.
