River from the City — Leanne Davis

Hunter Rydell caught his cheating wife red-handed, with her own stepbrother! Fleeing to a remote ranch owned by his cousin, Asher, Hunter emphatically rejects the life he once so proudly established in the big city. Eventually, his marriage, identity and lifelong dreams crumble in the blink of an eye, leaving him not only heartbroken, but burned out and jaded. Self-medicating with alcohol, Hunter has no clue about his next move so he chooses to wallow in his wretched situation. The only good thing he can still appreciate is Kyomi Wade, a girl whom he likes to hang out with. She dates his cousin and often visits the ranch where he insists on hibernating. Soon, however, she and Hunter spend more time together than either of them do with Asher. Their strong friendship gradually helps Hunter's broken heart to heal. Kyomi, however, refrains from exposing very much about herself. Hunter can only wonder why she settles for a few crumbs from Asher while he longs to give her the entire world, which she deserves. Eventually, a compelling secret from Hunter's past invades his present. Hunter fears losing the new life he now embraces because of the grave influences of his former life. How can he handle such an explosive secret without losing all that he managed to gain since he snubbed the city and his recent past? Binge read this contemporary, western romance series, full of hot cowboys and family entanglements that is based around the Rydell River Ranch brought to you by small-town romance author Leanne Davis… Recommended Reading Order for River's End Series:River's EndRiver's EscapeRiver's ReturnRiver RoadRiver on FireRiver's LostRiver of ChangeRiver's DestinyRiver's RescueRiver's Winter Dive into the next generation of River's End:River in DarknessRiver in LightRiver in the MountainsRiver at the RanchRiver to the OceanRiver from the CityRiver Through the ValleyRiver of RegretsEach book is a standalone with a happily-ever after but the journey getting there?
