Eastern Ambitions - Paperback

by Jayne Rylon (Author), Mari Carr (Author)

Sam Compton never liked getting his hands dirty, at least not on Compass Ranch. Armed with a business degree, he's about to become the youngest VP at an illustrious Wall Street investment firm. Until his partner in an office romance turns into an ultra-refined snake in the grass. Staggering from the punch of betrayal, another blow threatens to level him. His father is dying. He races home to lend his brain to his brothers' backs at the ranch, and finds something he never expected. A sophisticated yet playful woman stimulates his mind...and parts below the belt. Compass Ranch gave Cindi Middleton's wounded soul everything it needs: a home, acceptance, and respect-not to mention unlimited sex-from the ranch's sexy cowboys. Despite their instant and intense sparks, Sam's defection to the bright city lights she left behind is a big red flag. She's been there, done that, burned the T-shirt. Yet the heat of their attraction brings them circling back to each other's arms...until a certain snake reappears, threatening to endanger the acquisition of the one thing Sam has realized is truly priceless.
