Under Oklahoma Stars contains three novellas set in Swells, Oklahoma in the same storyverse as the Only an Okie Will Do series.

Cowboy Kind of Forever
Brody Longtree’s first love was bull riding, but he loved beauty queen Libby Dempsey equally as hard. When she turned down his marriage proposal, everything from his rodeo career to his love life went to hell. His love ran too deep for blame, so he made the best of what life threw at him. Things finally get back on track…and then she almost runs over his dog.


When her pageant dreams died in an embarrassing display of nerves, Libby made a new, cowboy-free life for herself. One where she could train other girls who want to be pageant princesses. One that doesn’t give her any reason to dwell on what might have been with Brody until his dog bounds into her heart. And she bounds into Brody’s bed.

Despite the differences in their lives, they mesh together, the way Brody always knew they would. No matter what, he’s waiting until he’s certain Libby is ready to get married before he asks again, but their relationship comes under fire when one of her friends reveals a secret about a little girl Libby is awfully attached to—a girl who’s the right age to be Brody’s daughter.

Cowboy Kind of Chance
Sommer Allen’s life is a disaster. Her ex-boyfriend got her arrested for possession. She lost her job, her home, and her sanity is hanging by a thread. Forced to return to Oklahoma and rely on her family’s mercy, she starts the long journey back. Only to have her car, and everything in it, stolen. With no money, no ID, and no hope, she’s amazed when a good-looking cowboy steps in to save the day.


Champion bull rider Perry Glidewell can’t leave a lady in distress alone on a sidewalk. No matter how wary and prickly she is, his mama raised him better. Surprised to find that Sommer’s heading his direction, he offers her a ride. There’s just one little thing he asks in return for the lift: he needs a date for his friend’s fancy birthday shindig. As they travel across the country together, Sommer’s shell crumbles and the road trip from hell leads to a magical evening under the stars.

For one night, Sommer’s living a Cinderella story with a handsome cowboy at her side. But when day breaks, can the fairy tale continue or will Perry ride into the sunset by himself?

Cowboy Kind of Compromise
Greer Daily is happy running the ranch she inherited from her father until a resort opens up next door and unruly guests terrorize her livestock and destroy her fences. After she confronts two of them and the situation gets sticky, she finds herself venting her fury on sexy resort owner Guy Carter. But the smooth-talking cowboy isn’t getting out of this mess easily. She wants reparations for her trouble.


Guy’s initial meeting with Greer could’ve gone better, but he hopes to placate her fiery temper by making amends for the fences. When a judge calls them out for being irresponsible and self-absorbed, then orders them to marry, Guy’s whole world is upended.

Their choices: Six months of marriage or a month of jail time. How bad can a few months with the queen of the cattle range be? Heaven if he can get her to bend, hell if she maintains her starchier than pressed jeans attitude. Greer and Guy have to work together to get out of this predicament, but maybe a marriage of inconvenience is really the lesson in love they need.
