Cowboy Love and Mystery

Since Evelyn’s mother died, she’s been the glue holding her family together—more like the only person willing to stand her father’s crappy behavior until Will Denver, an old friend from before, shows up, hotter and richer. The first time she reconnects with the stunning cowboy, he’s protecting her from her abusive father. Their attraction to each other can only grow. But to what extent? Evelyn has an annoying commitment to preserving her family, even though it’s been torn apart.

Despite her dreams, things don’t get easier for Evelyn, even though she decides to abandon whatever feelings of responsibility she has toward her family, to love herself, and also allow the man she loves to love her. However, that love life is rocked when she learns that her father still owes the Hornet’s gang some money and that they’re after her now. As if that’s not enough, her father hints that her mother’s death might not have been an accident as they’d always thought.

Evelyn and Will are in love with each other but a stream of problems like a drug kingpin, Big Tom, her unruly father, Bill, and Evelyn's lack of confidence in Will's feelings for her, keep them apart. Evelyn has been thrown into a world of uncertainty after Will, her lover, is shot by the drug kingpin, Big Tom, who has his eyes on her. He wants her for his son and would do anything to achieve that. The story revolves around characters who are ready to give up everything they own to save the one person that matters the most to them.

Evelyn keeps finding out new truths about her family. There is a web of deceit and lies around her, and only she can unravel it. Emotions play a major role in everyone’s decisions but the type of emotions, as well as how far people are willing to go for those emotions is the difference. Oliver tries to appear like the nice, caring gentleman who isn’t like his father, but he wants to frame Will to have Evelyn. Will will do anything to see Big Tom and Jack rot in prison?

Evelyn, Lisa, her sister, and her boyfriend, Will are led to believe that Oliver, Big Tom’s son, is on their side in the battle against the Hornets, even though Bill warns them against believing that. Lisa is the first to realize what a fraud Oliver is and his plan to frame Will and disturb his already strained relationship with Evelyn. She and Will lead a plan to put Big Tom behind bars. Their plan fails, however, Oliver is arrested for forgery. They celebrate the small win but not for long, as the Hornets strike not long after.

Will is missing and a minor beef has developed between Oliver, Lisa, and Evelyn. Lisa strongly believes Oliver is to blame still, even though she’d lost any evidence to make him plead guilty. Evelyn, on the other hand, after Oliver reveals Lisa’s former cases of mental illness, is unsure of who to trust. She feels alone and vulnerable. Oliver tries to make her feel better, and they end up kissing at the foot of a mountain. Lisa realizes that her sister has been brainwashed by Oliver, and goes on a one-man stalking mission, which eventually leads her to where Will is being kept captive.

Oliver finds out that his father has betrayed his trust. Evelyn is injured by the Hornets and has to be taken to the hospital. Will is forced into working for the Hornets to pay off his father’s debt. Evelyn is outraged by the news, and she decides to fight this time around.

Bill finds himself working for the Hornets to pay off his recent debts, and save his daughters from harm. When they find out that he had attempted to kill Will, his family is against him, and he is alone.

Timeon has been arrested but Big Tom and Adrian are nowhere to be found. Will is nostalgic and wishes to return to the ranch. He proposes that he and Evelyn’s family should return to the ranch and stick together. Bill does not think he is worthy of their love and acceptance. So, he leaves the group when they get to the ranch. Evelyn and Will then go to live on the ranch with Lisa and little Jamie. The sheriff has sent some men to guard them should the Hornets try to attack them.

Big Tom and his sons have struck again, as anticipated, but this time around, they want their freedom in exchange for paying off Will’s debt. Bill, on the other hand, receives an offer from the Hornets as well. He is to complete his task of killing Will and getting his freedom. Both parties have to make a choice. While they are battling with this, Evelyn’s notorious half-sister, Courtney, returns to town.

Courtney’s presence stirs confusion that Evelyn and her sister detest. Bill is eager to bring his daughters together, but the bad blood from years ago is stronger. Will and Mike, on the other hand, plan to indict Big Tom and his family, using the recording they have of the night he made them grant him liberty. Courtney recklessly stumbles upon the recording and casually mentions it to Timeon after a feisty romance. While Will and Mike prepare to give Big Tom a shocker after two weeks of false security, Big Tom and his sons plan a counterattack.

Courtney has left town after leaving nothing but pandemonium brewing at home. Lisa is determined to find her while Mike is determined to find dirt on Big Tom and bring him in, as he deserves. Will feels like he is doing nothing, and Evelyn has to convince him to trust Lisa. Timeon, in a bid to make a connection with Courtney, suggests using her as bait for revenge—an idea his father is excited about. Courtney’s bid to start over is interrupted by Timeon’s sudden appearance. Lisa "kidnaps" her and brings her home for interrogation.

The family is united. Courtney is willing to help her family since she feels used by Timeon, but Will and Evelyn choose to watch her and make sure she’s loyal to them. Courtney manages to convince Timeon to leave his family, and Big Tom is enraged. Adrian and Oliver help uncover Will and Mike’s plans to implicate Big Tom and his sons. Their plan is made, and Will is, once again, in danger. Evelyn’s POV: I have to let Courtney be a part of us. I am surprised to find that Will himself doubts her loyalty and when he wants to spy on her, I want to go with him.

Evelyn and Courtney get along fine. Will is kidnapped and the girls have to reach out to Lisa, who is dealing with her own demons. Bill begs to be killed and Big Tom and his Hornets gang try hard to get leverage. Evelyn’s POV: Courtney and I are catching up when Will is captured by Timeon. We run to Lisa for safety. I still think I should be wary of Courtney, but I am more willing now to give her the benefit of the doubt. Lisa does not look hopeful about her plans to raise money for Jamie and I don’t want to poke my nose into her business.
