关于此电子书

When Erick von Hellerman sails from Prussia to Texas, he leaves behind an estate, a title, a fortune, and the rigid expectations of society in the hope of finally taking control of his life. But Texas has rules of its own, and he'll have to learn to play by them if he wants the life–and the love–of his dreams. Raised by the Comanche and still struggling to adapt to life in the white man's world, ranch hand Cade Webster has learned the hard way not to expect good things in his life. Then, on an errand to Galveston, he's intrigued to see Erick calm a panicked horse on the docks. Since Cade's foreman is looking for a new bronc buster, he offers to let Erick accompany him back to Wellspring Ranch, a haven for misfits and outcasts, despite his doubts that the European dandy knows what he's getting himself into. Watching Erick adapt to hunting for food, sleeping under the stars, extreme weather, and unfamiliar predators convinces Cade that he just might make a cowboy after all. But a corrupt sheriff and a potential range war put their growing attraction—and their very lives—at risk. "Wellspring delivers a big thumping historical cowboy romance with all the tropes and a brawling, sprawling vibe. With every saddle creak, hot breeze, and hard glance the book brings to life an entire living, working ranch outfit in 19th century Texas. It's a slow-burn, worlds-collide western, serving up plenty of frontier feels with queer swagger. These aren't stick figures, but complicated adults wrangling with love, vulnerability, and identity in a world that doesn't make space for them." Damon Suede, author of Hot Head

作者简介

Growing up in Chicago, Nicki Bennett spent every Saturday at the central library, losing herself in the world of books. A voracious reader, she eventually found it difficult to find enough of the kind of stories she liked to read and decided to start writing them herself. Email: [email protected] acebook: www.facebook.com/100011754789784 Ariel Tachna is a polyglot linguaphile with a passion for travel, yarn, orchids, and romance. She has explored 45 states and 15 countries. The rich history and culture of France, the flavors and scents of India, and the sunrise over Machu Picchu in particular have left indelible impressions and show up regularly in her writing. Her passion for yarn has resulted in an overflowing stash and more projects than she'll probably finish in a lifetime, but that has yet to stop her from buying more. Her orchid collection has outgrown her office and spilled over into the rest of her house (much to her family's dismay), but that hasn't stopped her from adding to her collection or from resuscitating any unhappy ones she finds. When she isn't writing, knitting, or poking at her orchids, she spends her time marveling at her two kids, who never cease to amaze her with their capacity for love and acceptance and sports—they certainly didn't get that from her!—and their refusal to accept injustice of any kind—she hopes they got that from her.
