Slade: The Billionaire Rancher and The Waitress (Secret Tycoons of Wyoming Book 1)
Marian Tee - 2019
In the small Wyoming town he calls his second home, billionaire Slade Wyndham trades his thousand-dollar suits for aprons and jeans, and instead of wheeling and dealing in the boardroom, he's manning the counter at Redwood Cafe and whipping up the best latte art in town. It's a (seasonal) role Slade's come to enjoy, but when quiet little mouse Kady applies as a part-time waitress, the tycoon finds himself adding a new job title to his résumé: fake boyfriend, with Slade feeling strangely protective (and possessive) when he chances upon Kady's ex trying to make trouble. As the secret tycoon and Kady gradually grow closer in more ways than one, all signs should've pointed to a happy-ever-after ending...until the billionaire realizes the lines between fact and fiction have started to blur a little too much. Kady's looking at him like he's Prince Charming...even when Slade never pretended to be anything but a villain who only wants her for her body. Author's Note: Reading has always been a form of escape for me, and so this has always been #1 on my mind when writing as well. And with the Secret Tycoons of Wyoming series, I honestly went all out with my fantasies: a charming small town filled with secret billionaires who fell in love with ordinary girls like you and me. So, yes, just to be really clear: this is 100% over-the-top insta-love with just the right mix of steamy, funny, and sweet, and most important of all, a touch of tear-jerking heartbreak to make happy-ever-afters (read: no cliffhangers) all the more meaningful.
