Ride the River (Riverrun Ranch #1)

She was his Wildflower before the world tore them apart. Now he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her.

After years trapped in a nightmare marriage, Grace finally escapes the man determined to break her.

Seeking refuge in the mountains of Montana, she’s ready to reclaim her life, heal her scars, and learn how to fight back.

The last person she expects to find there is Malachi. Her childhood best friend. Her first safe place. The boy she loved before war took him away.

Now a retired Delta Force operator carrying scars of his own, Malachi never expected to see Grace again, especially not bruised, broken, and running for her life.

The moment they’re reunited, old feelings ignite, stronger than ever. For the first time in years, Grace dares to believe she might have a future worth fighting for.

There’s just one problem. Malachi is the older brother of the man she’s fleeing.

As their rekindled connection deepens, chilling messages prove Grace’s past isn’t finished with her. Her ex knows she’s gone, and he’ll stop at nothing to get her back.

With danger closing in and nowhere left to run, Grace must trust the one man who’s always protected her.

But when the final confrontation comes, Malachi will have to choose between his own blood and the woman who’s always owned his heart.

A gripping romantic suspense featuring a protective ex-military hero, a survivor finding her strength, childhood friends reunited, forbidden family ties, and a love powerful enough to heal even the deepest wounds.
