Avery by Lexie Ray

Avery:

This beautiful heiress just might be the only way to save my ranch…but at what cost? Good God, Paisley Summers could not have picked a worse time to hit on me. The gorgeous annoyance decides to come on to me while I’m drowning my sorrows at the only bar in town, mourning the impending foreclosure of my family’s ranch. I actually don’t care about the ranch itself – but I do care about my brothers, and it’s their whole world. To be fair to her, there’s no way she could have known my problems when she approached me. But to be fair to me, this definitely isn’t the first time I’ve had to resist her charms. I’ve been dodging her advances for twelve years at least, but the woman cannot take a hint! Most of the men in this godawful little prison of a town probably think I’m insane – Paisley is drop dead gorgeous, with a killer body, a refined manner, and enough of her daddy’s money to buy the whole place up. But maybe that’s the problem. Maybe she’s just too perfect for the likes of me.

Paisley:

He’s so much more than a rugged rancher – I just have to help him be the man I see inside. Avery Corbin is simply the most frustrating man. He’s sexy as hell, toned and tanned from ranch work, but he just won’t take yes for an answer. I’ve practically had to throw myself at him since high school! Sure, I could probably have any guy in town…but I want him. I want the man who always chooses the hard road, who does the right thing, who dreams of a better life. The only problem with dreamers is, they tend to miss what’s right in front of them. Well, not anymore. Avery is going to see me now – and he won’t be able to resist me this time.
