When Bitterroots Collide: A Montana Romance Between Rival Ranching Families

Widowed rancher Wyatt Mercer has spent nine years raising his daughter, managing his family’s horses, and keeping his heart firmly guarded. The last complication he needs is Sloane Dawson, the compassionate, captivating woman from the neighboring family his own has feuded with for generations. But when Wyatt finds Sloane stranded beside a storm-darkened Montana road, leaving her behind is not an option.

One reluctant rescue brings them closer than either intended. Beneath their sharp banter and inherited suspicions lies an attraction that refuses to stay buried. Yet opening their hearts means confronting family expectations, unexplained trouble on the ranches, and the grief and fear that have shaped Wyatt’s life.

Set against the rugged beauty of the Bitterroot Mountains, When Bitterroots Collide is a contemporary Western romance about a devoted single father, an off-limits neighbor, and two people deciding whether love can flourish where rivalry has taken root.
