Escape to Cowboy Crossing extends the fictional Texas town Verde built in the original Cowboy Crossing Romances series, adding new storylines alongside what appear to be companion or collected editions of the original books. The series has seventeen entries, mixing “Show Me” titles from the original series with new “No” prefix stories.
The “No” books — No Fake Dating for a Cowboy, No Mistaken Identity for a Cowboy, No Second Chance for a Cowboy — flip the trope framing of the originals. Where the “Show Me” titles announce a romantic setup, the “No” titles suggest a character initially refusing that very situation before love changes the equation.
Readers already familiar with Cowboy Crossing will find this series a natural extension. New readers can pick up either series, though starting with the original Show Me a Single Dad Cowboy gives the cleanest introduction to the community.
