Montana Inspired — Kim Law

Jewel Jackson has one goal for the remainder of the rodeo season: finish with the best bucking bull in the business. The owners of Double B Pro Rodeo have decided to sell, and if Jewel can ensure their star bull continues to perform as expected, she'll earn the Brandons a huge payday. Of course, by doing so, she'll also be maneuvering herself right out of a job.Bobby Brandon, youngest sibling of the Brandon clan and long-time friend of Jewel's, has returned home to help at the Double B while another employee is away. Spending the summer in Birch Bay is no big deal. He doesn't start his Pharmacy degree until the Fall, and he always loves coming home to visit. Plus, he and his ex are finally over, and he could use the break. He'll help with the bulls while also enjoying quality time regrouping in his studio, then he'll get back to his real life at summer's end. That is, unless hanging out with Jewel upends his lifelong plans the same way one smile from her suddenly reverses his intentions for a low-key summer.Passion ignites when two long-time friends find themselves in the right place at the right time, and as Jewel struggles with the idea of walking away from the animals that have always meant so much, Bobby finds himself reevaluating his entire livelihood.
