He came to save the ranch. She needs to save it from him.

When Sam Chance’s father buys a struggling Montana dude ranch and volunteers him to fix it, Sam makes a plan: get in, turn it around, and get back to his sailboat. An attorney, competitive sailor, and lifelong resort kid, he knows hospitality. Horses, alpacas, cowboy boots, and why anyone would choose Montana over the ocean? Not so much.

Large-animal veterinarian Victoria Mercer has watched six owners make promises and leave the mess behind. She’s sacrificed more than anyone knows to protect the ranch, her parents, and the only home she’s ever known. Owner Number Seven is charming, tempting, temporary, and trouble.

Unfortunately, Sam doesn’t just fix things—he follows through.

Even worse, between horse flashcards, a clingy alpaca, and Sam’s annoying knack for solving problems, Vic starts enjoying having him around. And Sam discovers Montana has one very distracting advantage over the ocean.

But proving he’ll stay isn’t the same as building a future with her. And after a lifetime of broken promises, Vic won’t risk a broken heart.

A Chance to Stay is a small-town, closed-door romantic comedy featuring a fish-out-of-water hero, meddling family, witty banter, and plenty of sass, sparks, and swoon. It’s the final book in the Chance Brothers series, where three brothers discover the love they never thought they needed—or deserved.

Come on in and stay awhile.
