Wild Highway

Gemma Lane built a fortune from nothing. As a teenager she lived in a makeshift tent in a California junkyard, and she spent the years since turning pennies into millions. Now she has power, money and standing, and she is walking away from all of it.

She sets out across the country in her best friend's Cadillac. A detour through Montana brings her back among old acquaintances, and among them is Easton Greer, a man who has not changed since she knew him before.

Easton does not believe she has really given up her wealth. He questions what she says, pushes at her limits and mutters his disapproval, and Gemma mostly ignores him. That holds until the day she is ready to get back on the road and he taunts her into staying.

Staying means proving a point: that she is not simply heading back to her old life, and that she is worth more than her bank balance. It also means opening a heart she has kept guarded, with Easton as the one who might finally value it.

This is a contemporary romance with a small-town Montana setting, built on friction and a second chance between two people with history.
