The Long Road to Loving Jackson ^Featured

Two guarded hearts. One suspicious death. A love worth fighting for.

Abbey Miller never planned to come home broken. Burdened with a shattered trick riding career, a mending spine, and the ache of her uncle’s death, her return to the farm feels more like another test than a homecoming. Then a brooding stranger steps out of the scrub. Jackson, a man with smoke-dark eyes and callused hands, has a past he keeps buttoned tight. Forced into a fragile truce, the two share long days working the cattle station under the Queensland sun, and quiet nights where his low guitar turns Abbey’s grief into something almost bearable. In the hush between songs and saddles, trust takes root where loss once lived, and desire simmers like heat on the horizon.

But the land Abbey loves has a target on its back. Her new neighbour is hungry to fold her station into his illicit empire, and intimidation turns to sabotage as he inches closer to what isn’t his. When threats become deadly and Jackson is dragged into the crosshairs, Abbey must saddle the courage she thought she’d buried and ride the edge of danger the only way she knows how: fast, fearless, and with everything on the line. She’ll risk her health, her heart, and her hard-won home to save the man she loves.

If you crave slow-burn heat, rugged redemption, and the soul-deep pull of small-town stakes set against sweeping country, The Long Road to Loving Jackson will sweep you into a world where love is carved from grit, music, and the thunder of hooves, and where choosing each other might be the bravest ride of all.

Perfect for readers of Nora Roberts, Katherine Center, and Robyn Carr.
