A steamy small town enemies to lovers romance. Welcome to Wild Heartlands. Perfect for fans of the Chestnut Springs series by Elsie Silver and Paisley Hope

Maddie Hart has been under my skin for as long as I can remember—sharp-tongued, stubborn, and born on the wrong side of a feud that’s split our families for generations. The line between the Wilde ranch and the Hart land isn’t just fence posts — it’s history, pride, and a whole lot of bad blood. Now the ranch between us is up for sale, and I’ll be damned if I let a Hart get their hands on it. I’ve worked too hard, fought too long... to lose to her. But Maddie doesn’t play fair. Not in business—and definitely not when it comes to me.

Because somewhere between the arguments and the years of tension, something finally snaps. One mistake, and suddenly I know exactly what it feels like to have her in my arms. It should’ve ended there. It didn’t.

Now we’re sneaking around, crossing lines we swore we never would, risking everything for something we can’t seem to quit. And in a town where secrets don’t stay buried, it’s only a matter of time before the truth comes out—and when it does, it won’t just be us who pays the price.
