A Cowboy Named Fortune
In a small Western town with more horses than people, feisty city reporter Ariana Lamonte may have uncovered the scoop of a lifetime: not one, not two, but three secret Fortunes, hiding in plain sight. Exposing these heretofore unknown Fortune heirs could make her career. But it could also break her heart.
Falling in love with cowboy/military man Jayden Fortune was never part of the plan. When Jayden offered Ariana shelter from a storm, he didn’t know who she was—and she didn’t know what she was in for. Trapped in a dark, damp cellar with the sexy-as-sin rancher, Ariana unlassoed her inner cowgirl, and now she’s got a problem: her “secret Fortune” has become way more than just a story...
MEET THE FORTUNES
Fortune of the Month: Jayden Fortune
Age: 36
Vital Statistics: Tall, sexy cowboy. Former military with a penchant for adventure and pretty girls.
Claim to Fame: He is one of three equally gorgeous triplets. Oh, and he may be the son of a billionaire.
Romantic Prospects: Jayden has never had a problem attracting the female of the species. If anything, he’s had trouble fighting them off.
“I traveled all over the world with the army, and I used to think I’d never come back to quiet old Paseo. But I’m older now—hopefully a little wiser, too—and there’s something to be said for ‘home, sweet home.’
Not a lot happens in Paseo, usually. Who’d believe that a stunning city girl would get stuck here on the road to nowhere—and that we’d wind up trapped in a storm cellar together with no lights, no phone service and plenty of sparks? Ariana got under my skin right from the start. We’re different, all right, but I feel like she’s perfect for me. Or maybe a little too perfect? Just what is it that Ariana is hiding?”
The Fortunes of Texas: The Secret Fortunes— A new generation of heroes and heartbreakers!

“Girl, this is not good.”
Ariana Lamonte made a face as she looked out the windows of her car. She hadn’t seen another vehicle for more than an hour. Grassland whipped in the wind all the way to the horizon in every direction. The same wind rocked her little car where she was parked on the dirt shoulder, and sent the thick clouds overhead racing across the sky. “Not good at all,” she repeated to herself.
She fished her cell phone up from the passenger side floor by the charging cord tethering it to her dashboard. Using the GPS on the phone always drained the battery quickly, so she’d at least been prepared on that score when she’d set out from Austin that morning. But she sure wished she’d been better prepared with the address she was seeking. There was a dot blinking on her phone screen, right atop a barely discernible line that indicated the laughable excuse for a road on which she sat.
