The rival / by Yates, Maisey,author.;
"Cowboy Levi Granger is his own man. He's proud of his ranch, and he's proud of the siblings he brought up after the devastating loss of their parents. The only thing he's not proud of is the way the Sullivan family took advantage of him when he was struggling the most. So when pretty Quinn Sullivan comes looking to access his land for a business venture, the kick of attraction is as shocking as it is unwelcome! Book-smart Quinn can more than hold her own when it comes to arrogant cowboys. But there's something about Levi that gets under her skin. Maybe it's his ease around the ranch or his smoldering good looks--or maybe it's the way he stares at her like he hates her but maybe also wants to kiss her. Quinn isn't one to back down easily, but not falling for the frustratingly handsome cowboy is proving to be the biggest challenge she's ever faced ... "--Back cover.
