About LEGEND

When the legend becomes the temptation

A small-town, age-gap interracial romance featuring a silver-fox football legend and a fearless fashion designer

Everyone in Bliss, Texas loves Colton Gardner.

A former football hero who led the town to a state championship, dominated in college and the pros, and returned home a billionaire after betting on his best friend’s tech startup, Colton is still the town’s reigning legend.

Now his focus is on one thing—making sure his daughter's wedding is the event of the year. But when her wedding dress disappears just two weeks before the big day, the frantic scramble to save the celebration throws Colton straight into the orbit of Rue Benson, a sexy, ambitious New York designer.

Rue isn't interested in small-town life—or falling for a much older local hero. She's only back in Bliss to help her injured mother. But between an emergency couture gown, undeniable chemistry, and Colton’s silver-fox charm, temptation proves impossible to ignore.

As the wedding countdown begins, emotions run high and plans unravel. Colton and Rue must decide if their fling is just a temporary temptation...or a lasting love worth rewriting everything they thought they wanted.

Legend continues the Billionaires of Bliss series with a guaranteed happily-ever-after and an attraction that defies professional boundaries. It features intense wedding drama, small-town secrets, and family conflict that resolves within the book, ensuring zero romance cliffhangers.
