The Brothers of Duncan Ranch

Bryce Duncan thinks hiring a party planner for his dad’s 60th birthday is downright silly. But when his mother leaves him no choice, he has to toss his idea—a family BBQ and a bucket of beers—in the trash. His mother, ever the meddler, hires party planner Lindsey Mackey, a vibrant young woman with a gift and dedication for memorable events. From the moment he meets her, Bryce finds himself annoyed by her constantly upbeat attitude. It’s going to be a long month of planning.

Maddie Burns is back in town. Happy to be teaching in the high school she’d attended, settling back into small-town life feels familiar and safe. The fact that her high school sweetheart ex is still there isn’t even on her radar. She moved past him years ago and eventually got over her broken heart...sort of. Well, actually, she still has flashes of anger when she thinks about how things went down.

Sam Duncan expects to win the ranch challenge that would put a cool 50 grand in his pocket. Not lacking confidence, Sam works his parcel of land in the competition and is certain his win will be a slam dunk. What he doesn’t expect is that Whitney—the only woman ranch hand at Duncan Ranch—will give him a run for his money. He’s not happy about it, and his disdain for her overflows.

Lilliana’s ties to the Duncan family are strong. Losing her mother at a young age affected her deeply, and she’s compensated for that loss by clinging to her women friends. The Duncan wives love her dearly and protect her when necessary.

Felicity Duncan has had a crush on Jack Taylor since she was a teenager. She follows the rodeo because of him. When she finds out he’s in her cousin’s wedding, she’s beside herself with nerves and excitement.
