Roped is a contemporary cowboy romance that went for the trope "secret billionaire" plot.
Josephine and her friends decided to play 'scavenger hunt' with a sexy twist, and Josephine was up first... She had to go seduce a sexy cowboy... or exile herself for two weeks on a remote island (which would kill her career). Josephine always worked hard, and really had no idea how to play, or how to have mind-blowing sex, for that matter. It was just her luck that she came across Levi, and he's everything she dreamed a cowboy would be... and willing to take her places she had never been. But when she realized she may be falling for this perfect cowboy lover for real, she ran in the morning. What she didn't realize is this cowboy has a secret too, and he will find his "Josie" and explain to her there is nothing wrong with falling for a cowboy...
What kind of friends would exile their friend to a remote island for two weeks just for losing a stupid game of dare? The inciting incident barely makes sense. The rest of it is okay, but it's pretty much standard insta-lust. The rest of book is okay, which is why this didn't get rated any lower.
