Protecting Sarah

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

When Cole Stevens travels from Montana to Texas to close a business deal with his old friend, Chandler West, he never expects to close in on a relationship, too. But with one brief flicker of eye contact in the airport with a pretty young woman carrying a guitar, his heart starts to unravel.

Sarah MacKay, fresh off the South Dakota ranch she grew up on, is touted as the up-and-coming country music singer of the year. Invited to sing at Chandler West's annual ranch barbecue, Sarah finds herself in opposition with her manager, and Cole steps up to protect her from the smarmy, poor excuse of a human being.

Emotions are high and sparks fly, and for the first time in his adult life, Cole feels something for a woman that both mystifies and terrifies him. But it's just a weekend, right? He will be back home on the Branded Filly Ranch in Montana come Monday, and Sarah has a career to get off the ground. Can a love-at-first-sight weekend turn into the happily-ever-after neither of them are looking for?

Then Sarah turns up missing and it's suspected she's been abducted by her manager. Suddenly Cole has more to worry about than a love-at-first-sight weekend. Will he lose Sarah before he has her?
