The Cowboy Next Door

He moved in next door like trouble always does—quietly, confidently, and impossible to ignore. Lucas came to Willow Creek for the space. The quiet. The safety of a life he finally understands. What he didn't expect was Cole—the magnetic cowboy with a crooked smile, restless energy, and a reputation for never staying long... with anyone. Cole is everything Lucas knows to avoid. Straight. Charming. Unapologetically desired. A man who moves through women like seasons and never looks back. But from the moment their paths cross, something electric sparks between them—unspoken, undeniable, dangerous. What starts as friendship blurs into late nights, loaded glances, and a tension neither of them can outrun. Cole doesn't do attachment. Lucas doesn't do half-truths. And wanting each other might cost them more than either is ready to risk. Because some desires don't fade quietly. Some truths refuse to stay buried. And some connections demand to be faced—no matter the timing. The Cowboy Next Door is a scorching small-town MM romance about temptation, identity, and the moment wanting someone becomes impossible to ignore.
