Copper by Patricia Green

Rodeo Roughies - Book 4

Miranda Gables is a rodeo photographer, traveling around to many events to take stunning pictures which are then published in promotions, programs, magazines, and used on TV. She's quite successful, but her family keeps her humble. Unfortunately, she's made an enemy. After taking one damning picture of a rodeo cowboy's animal abuse and getting him suspended for two years, it looks like his sister is out to get her. At first, it's petty vandalism, but it appears to be escalating.

Ty "Copper" Turner is a former Marine MP turned rodeo star. When he sees Miranda's problem developing, and false accusations being made against her, he takes measures to help. Copper steps in several times to protect her but knowing who the criminal is and proving it are two different things. Their relationship begins to grow and change and he discovers keeping her safe is the most important thing to him, as he intends to never let her go.

This is book four in the Rodeo Roughies series and can be enjoyed independently.
