Book Description

Josh

The last person I ever expected to see on my ranch? Zoe Wilson.

Smart. Gorgeous. Stubborn as ever. And the girl who crushed my teenage heart under her boot.
So imagine my surprise when she shows up—suitcase in hand—ready to “help.”
Turns out, my little sister—Zoe’s best friend—invited her to redesign the ranch’s sorry excuse for a website.

Did anyone ask me? Of course not. It’s only my ranch.
But fine. I’ll be civil. Keep things professional. Focus on keeping the place afloat.
Except she’s everywhere—in my space, in my head, under my damn skin.

I keep telling myself I’ll stay distant. Be the grumpy cowboy she remembers, not the fool who fell for her once.
Then she flashes that smile. The one that wrecked me then… and still does now.
We’re stuck working side by side, and the tension crackles hotter than a wildfire in July.
She’s terrified of horses, planning to leave in two months, and dead set against long-distance.

Resisting her? Not a chance.

I might lose the ranch. I might lose my heart. But I’ll be damned if I let her walk away without a fight.

Zoe

I had one rule when I agreed to come back to Cafferty keep it business.
I should’ve known that would go out the window the second I saw Josh Cafferty again.
Broad shoulders. Grumpy scowl. That jawline. And those worn-out jeans don’t help.
He’s impossible. Bossy. Brooding. And exactly my type—unfortunately.

Every day working with him is a war of words and stolen glances. Every brush of his hand, every low growl of my name under his breath leaves me melting faster than Montana snow in spring.

But I don’t do cowboys. I don’t do small-town life. I definitely don’t do long-distance.
I came to fix a website—not fall back into a past I worked hard to leave behind.

So why does the thought of leaving him break me more than any goodbye ever has?
Why does staying suddenly feel like the only thing that makes sense?

When Mary Sue's not out on the grasslands dreaming up her next story, she's most often spending time with her own personal hunky rancher, her husband. One of Mary Sue's favorite activities is to ride the ranch with her husband in the evening and hold his hand as they watch the sun go down over the prairie.

My Thoughts

"Undone" by Mary Sue Jackson is a delightful contemporary romance that perfectly blends the grumpy cowboy trope with a second-chance love story, all set against the picturesque backdrop of a struggling Montana ranch. If you're a fan of witty banter, undeniable chemistry, and a hero who's secretly a softie, you're in for a treat.

The story kicks off when Zoe Wilson, a smart and gorgeous woman with a knack for web design, unexpectedly arrives at Josh Cafferty's ranch. Josh, our brooding cowboy, is less than thrilled to see the woman who, years ago, unknowingly "crushed his teenage heart." His sister, Zoe's best friend, orchestrated her visit to help redesign the ranch's outdated website—without consulting Josh, of course. This forced proximity sets the stage for a simmering tension that's absolutely delicious.

Josh's internal monologue is gold. He's determined to keep things professional, maintain his "grumpy cowboy" persona, and resist Zoe's undeniable charm. But Zoe's presence, her infectious smile, and their constant professional clashes quickly chip away at his resolve. Their interactions are a masterclass in enemies-to-lovers dynamics; the war of words and stolen glances slowly gives way to an undeniable attraction.

Zoe, on the other hand, has her own set of rules. She doesn't "do cowboys," small-town life, or long-distance relationships. She came to fix a website, not to revisit a past—and a heart—she worked hard to leave behind. However, Josh's broad shoulders, grumpy scowl, and those worn-out jeans prove to be quite the distraction. Every shared moment, every brush of hands, and every low growl of her name leaves her melting, challenging all her carefully constructed boundaries.

The core conflict, beyond their shared history, revolves around Zoe's fear of horses, her two-month departure plan, and their mutual aversion to long-distance relationships. This adds layers of emotional depth, making their journey to potential reconciliation even more compelling. Will Josh fight for the ranch and his heart? Can Zoe overcome her fears and reconsider her future?

"Undone" is a charming, engaging read that will have you rooting for Josh and Zoe from their very first heated exchange. It’s a perfect escape for anyone craving a heartwarming romance with plenty of sizzle and a healthy dose of cowboy charm.
