A Bride For Thomas: A Friends to Lovers Small Town Tattoo Artist/Sheriff Romance (Crescent Ridge: Mountain Men in Uniform)

She was always meant to be his.

Gwen Truett grew up in Crescent Ridge, but she moved away the first chance she got. Now her mother is sick and she’s back in town for the foreseeable future. She’s a local but ever since she opened her tattoo studio downtown, she’s been receiving the cold shoulder. Despite her quiet and professional setting, other local business owners are constantly calling the local sheriff’s office with noise complaints. It wouldn’t be more than an annoyance if the sheriff wasn’t a childhood friend. One who looks like a tall drink of water despite the hideous uniform he wears.

He was never going to send off for a bride like the other single men in his hometown. Not when she’s the only woman he’s ever loved.

Thomas Larson has loved Gwen since they were in high school. He didn’t tell her then because he wanted more for her than to be shackled to their hometown. She’s talented and he wanted her to leave her mark on the world. But now she’s back and he’s done watching from the sidelines. He’s always worn the star with pride and honor but now that the woman he loves is being harassed by the very people he swore to protect and serve he might just have to decide which is a higher calling.

Can he honor his vow and protect the woman he loves, or will he have to watch as she walks away again?

The others center around a mail order bride dynamic while this one features a sworn officer of the law and the feisty tattoo artist he has loved for years. HEA guaranteed with no cheating and can be read in a couple of hours.
