Taming the Lone Wolf

By Joan Johnston

It takes beauty, grit, and grace to tame a rambling rancher in the New York Times–bestselling author’s contemporary Western romance.

A lone wolf like Stony Carlton isn’t easy to tame. Commitment may be fine for other men, but Stony is a born rambler and refuses to be tied down, even to the right woman. Because how could such a person really exist?

But then he meets the spirited Tess Lowell, a small-town Wyoming waitress with emotional scars of her own, thanks to an ugly divorce. And, somehow, as the straight-talking redhead slowly earns a place in his heart, he can’t help but think about what it might be like to give up his roaming ways . . .
