Big Gruff Cowboy E-Book

I told the hot cowboy that I'm bald and this is what he did...

The big, gruff cowboy that I've been crushing on goes to ruffle my hair, and I duck.

Fury crosses his features. “Who hurt you?”

I realize what he’s thinking and shake my head. “My scalp is sensitive.” Before I can second guess myself, I blurt out, “I have alopecia.”

He studies me for a long moment before he finally says, “I don’t know what that is.”

I feel sick to my stomach, the same way I did in fourth grade when the other girls made fun of me after the teacher insisted I couldn’t wear a hat indoors.

“It’s an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss. Basically, I started losing my hair as a kid and now I barely have any at all. I’m bald.” 

I gesture to my head as if he doesn’t know where my wig is located.

I fight the urge to crawl under a rock as I explain, “I was always the odd one out. Never quite fit in as the balding kid at school then as the foster kid that could never find a home.”

I shrug, trying to tuck away a lifetime of cruel taunts and insults. “It’s hard to be the only one that’s different.”

Finally, I risk a glance at his face. His eyes are filled with compassion, not horror or disgust like I expected. 

He cups my cheeks in his big hands and tips my face up. “This doesn’t change anything for me. I like you, Lizzy. I couldn’t give a damn about your hair or lack of it.”

His words warm me, but it's not until the next day when he shows up for our date, that Noah really shocks me with the drastic change in his appearance...

If you want to find out what happens next and you love an over the top cowboy who falls hard and fast for his curvy woman, it’s time to meet Noah in Big Gruff Cowboy. One click for a story so hot you’ll need an ice cube!
