About this series
A devil's bargain. That's what Vincent Push, owner of the Lucky Strike Oil Company made. Coerced into a marriage (in name only) to a woman he loathes. Done to save the son he loves. And hell on earth is where he'll reside for the rest of his miserable life until he stumbles into a dive bar on the outskirts of untapped Burton, Oklahoma. Where he finds an earthbound angel tending bar. The sparks of desire arcing between them hot enough to scorch the ground. You know, burn the house down hot.
He, with no future. Wanting nothing more than one night in this angel's arms. Knowing it isn't possible because he's married to the heartless, soulless Maneater of Vermin County. And she's holding the trump card. His son. The child he won't give up for anything. Or for anyone. But the seductive allure of Rita Santos Murphy is too much to resist. And one night leads to more than ever thought possible. Or come with so heavy a price.
Rita Santos Murphy, a champion barrel racing, buckle bunny from Burton, Oklahoma faces censure and judgment every day of her life. There is no sympathy for the young widow. No compassion. No respectable jobs offered. Which leaves her with no choice but to take the only job available: bartending. Fending off the unwanted advances from the upstanding men of town. All she wants is the freedom to save her ranch. To make her own choices. But it's 1974. Women don't have the same freedom and opportunities. Not like a man.
Rita is desperate. Trying to hold onto her ranch. Afraid she'll lost it, until a handsome drifter with seductive blue eyes and a devil-may-care attitude roars into her life, empowering her and encouraging her to be her true self, to live the life she wants, free of the rules of tradition. And when she thought she'd sworn off men, here is one she can't resist... until Vince's past and her future collide into a fiery web of lies, deceit, broken trust and hopeless despair. Can Vince and Rita overcome impossible odds to get their second chance at love their way? Or will the devil's bargain Vince made destroy them both?
Wylde Note: Be warned, Vince is a colorful cusser. One who Sam Jackson and Bruce Willis would envy. But Vince has a big heart. And when he falls in love, it's with one woman and and it's forever.

Virgil Push, the golden boy of Vermin County was handed a silver spoon worth 16 million dollars. He used it to sample all the decadence of life. Without care or thought for others, he took that spoon and rode it. Fast and far away from Vermin County as he could get. But the ride skidded to a stop. All of it slipping away in bankrupcy, poor choices and debauchery. Now Virgil is back in the town he swore never to return to. Divorced, destitute, serving as mayor in a job he's been told is easy as pie. He's done a lot of shitty things in his life. The worst he's yet to do. Serving a citation to cease and desist business operations on Miz Ruby Mae Shove. The town's most beloved widow and her home-based business. Easy as pie? Hell! They have a past. One that ended ugly before it ever caught fire. But the flames of desire have never simmered. For fifteen freakin' years! Flames of passion and want that distance and sacred vows to others could never damper. Or diminish. He's got secrets. She does, too. He wants a second chance. A future with her. She wants to keep her business. A roof over her head. The battle of wills is about to being. May the best man -- and woman -- win. REVISED EDITION. New Original Content!
