Wild Hearts by Jason Collins

LEVI:

After years of saving for my dream ranch, a rich, know-nothing city boy has bought it out from under me. I don’t have to like Kyle, but I’ll give him ninety days of my time to make sure the place doesn’t burn down. But each day that passes, something changes in me, and one dip in the creek sparks a desire I didn’t know I could feel for a man.

Afterward, we can’t take our eyes or our hands off each other, and I want to explore every inch of these new feelings. Just as things are getting good, a rich jerk from his family dives in like a vulture. That brings out a new, mysterious side of Kyle, which makes me want to pull back. I don’t know what I am to him: the chance of a lifetime, or a cowboy on the side.

KYLE:

My family does everything high-profile, including scandals. Which is why a low-profile ranch in the middle of nowhere is the perfect place to lie low. But Wild, Wyoming is a far cry from NYC’s glitz. I don’t know a thing about running my new property, and the head rancher Levi isn’t eager to teach me. He’s a powerhouse of a man with no patience for city boys—least of all the one buying his ranch.

An innocent hike to the creek shows us a side of each other we’ve never seen, and being straight all my life doesn’t stop these new feelings. Of course, that’s when my jerk of a stepbrother shows up to remind me that I’ll never escape my family. If I can’t keep the scandals away, the ranch might stay intact, but our future will go up in flames.

This is the second book in the Wyoming Wilds series. It can be read as a standalone with no cliffhanger.
