Can an upstanding sheriff… Fall for a bad boy? Eric Novak has a reputation as a troublemaker in Jade Valley, Wyoming, but Sheriff Angie Lee intends to judge him by his actions, not his past. That he’s returned to care for his father is admirable, though the handsome rancher has set her heart fluttering for entirely different reasons. But when Eric is implicated in a local theft, Angie must search for the truth…even if that means losing the man she’s falling for. From Harlequin Heartwarming: Wholesome stories of love, compassion and belonging.

A Kirkus Best Fiction of 2019 Pick! A cross between Daniel Woodrell and Annie Proulx, Wyoming is about the stubborn grip of inertia and whether or not it is possible to live without accepting oneself. It’s 1988 and Shelley Cooper is in trouble. He’s broke, he’s been fired from his construction job, and his ex-wife has left him for their next door neighbor and a new life in Kansas City. The only opportunity on his horizon is fifty pounds of his brother’s high-grade marijuana, which needs to be driven from Colorado to Houston and exchanged for a lockbox full of cash. The delivery goes off without a hitch, but getting home with the money proves to be a different challenge altogether. Fueled by a grab bag of resentments and self punishment, Shelley becomes a case study in the question of whether it’s possible to live without accepting yourself, and the dope money is the key to a lock he might never find. JP Gritton’s portrait of a hapless aspirant at odds with himself and everyone around him is both tender and ruthless, and Wyoming considers the possibility of redemption in a world that grants forgiveness grudgingly, if at all.
