This is the story of a big-city woman who relocates to a small Louisiana town, where she crosses paths with Beau. At first, she doesn’t realize that Beau carries demons similar to Chris’s. Yet, while their struggles may echo one another, their paths diverge, unraveling in different directions. 

Duke, meanwhile, embraces polyamory, already involved with three women and searching for his “final piece” in Harmony to complete his circle. Both brothers have children—Duke with twin girls, Beau with a daughter from a complicated relationship. Despite their rough edges, they are devoted fathers who model respect and care, teaching their daughters how they deserve to be treated. One memorable moment shows Beau insisting his daughter wait until he opens the door for her, reinforcing the values of love and respect passed down from their parents, whose decades-long marriage embodies commitment and resilience. 

At its core, this novel explores two country men who have endured hardship yet remain determined to find real love in whatever form it arrives—especially through their connections with the Hart sisters. They are unafraid to confront issues directly, refusing to go to bed angry or run from mistakes. Instead, they stand tall, hold the fort down, and engage in the difficult conversations that others might avoid. 

*Deeply in Love with a Country Thug* is a layered tale of family, love, and resilience, showing how even those scarred by the past can seek healing and connection in unexpected places.  It is a raw, romantic tale of two Louisiana brothers, Beau and Duke, and the Hart sisters who change their lives. It’s about love after heartbreak, fatherhood, resilience, and the courage to face demons instead of running from them. A story of country men searching for real love, proving that even through struggle, respect and devotion can thrive.
