Tattered and Torn

Gabrielle Hunter has always dreamed of running her own restaurant. But as a sous-chef in a five-star Italian restaurant in Chicago, she's way down on the seniority list. She'll never get her big chance. When friends out west in the Rocky Mountains offer her a chance of a lifetime--move out there and run the restaurant at their McIntyre Wilderness Excursions Lodge, Gabrielle takes a big chance and says YES. She's more than ready to run her own restaurant, but what she's not ready for is the surly, grumpy cowboy who manages the stables and oversees the horseback adventures. John Burke is a retired military vet who suffered burns on the left side of his face and left hand. His injuries ended his military career, and now he's trying to find his way in the civilian world. Tattered and Torn is a beauty and the beast story with a western twist, featuring a grumpy, anti-social cowboy as the beast and a beautiful red-head as the sunshine beauty. Tattered and Torn is book 3 in the McIntyre Search and Rescue series. It can be read standalone, but it will be enjoyed so much more as part of the series. Swoonworthy hero action, a strong and feisty heroine, action, adventure, and lots of feels in this small-town setting. No cheating, of course, and an HEA is guaranteed!
