Rescued by the Alien Bull Rider

A grumpy alien cowboy, a pregnant human woman, and the power of finding family in the most unexpected of places . . .

When I lose my home and my horse all in the same afternoon, I'm forced to take painful stock of my situation. I'm twenty-three years old. Single. And pregnant. I've always been the glass-half-full sort of gal, but things are looking truly dire as I stare down my rapidly approaching due date.

That's when I hear about Zabria Prinar One. A ranching outpost planet where a bunch of lonely alien cowboys are waiting for brides. I grew up on a ranch—surely I have enough to offer that one of them will want me. Even if my own family doesn't.

So I book a shuttle and go.

But my pilot abandons me in a random field, leaving me to face down the intimidating elements alone. Including one very angry alien bull about to charge.

Just before I get gored, a powerful rider with white eyes comes thundering out of the darkness to save me. His name is Zohro. He's beautiful and pink—the color of all my favorite things. He is also possibly the grumpiest and most impatient male I have ever met.

But I don't care. There's a protective streak in him that makes me feel so safe, no matter how fierce his frowns are. Within moments of meeting him, I know that he's the one I want to marry. I just have to tell him that I’m pregnant with another man's child first . . .
