It Took A Rumor Carter Ashby

Thanks to a flamboyant, small-town gossip blogger, Ivy Turner's lily-white reputation has just been unceremoniously muddied. Rumor has it Ivy has succumbed to temptation and slept with one of the Deathridge brothers. Sources can't confirm which of the four, sexy cowboys she's taken up with, but everyone in town is weighing in. Ivy would gladly step forward and defend her good name, except that the rumor happens to be true. Perplexed that her little indiscretion has somehow made it into the public eye, Ivy sets out to find the rumor's source. In the process, she becomes the unwitting keeper of all the Deathridge brothers' rather formidable secrets. Now, not only does she have to keep taking hits to her reputation to protect the brothers, but all these secrets and lies are keeping her from exploring her burgeoning feelings for one of them. But if Jake, Cody, Dallas, and Boone think that Ivy's patience is limitless, they're in for a shock. Because when Ivy breaks, she's taking everyone down with her.
