About this ebook

I was perfectly content on my own… 

Photographer Ruby Werner wasn't thinking about love or commitment when she met Jack. She wasn't thinking about forever when they got stranded in a rainstorm or when they said goodbye a day later. With that day came long term consequences and, as usual, Ruby planned to do it on her own. 

Jack had other plans. 

I wasn't going to let her shut me out 

Bad boy billionaire Jackson Silver was used to getting his way. In business and pleasure he called the shots. Until he met a brown skinned beauty who refused to play by his rules. Ruby turned his world upside down, making him think of things he'd vowed would stay in the past. 

He would take care of her but he would not love her. Ruby made that an impossible vow to keep. 

Together they were both determined to keep their distance. Life however, had other plans.

Older Wiser Billionaire - D.M. Bryce

Prologue

Ruby gazed up at clear blue skies, well what she could see through the giant sequoias. It was a beautiful day and her last day in the Sierra Nevada. It was the sixth national park she’d visited between her day jobs. She’d starting working as a professional photographer at twenty-one and now four years later she finally felt ready to branch out, to try something new. She was sick of making food look beautiful enough to get the masses to buy it, and she was bone tired of erotic photo shoots of girls fresh off the bus from Middle America. But those jobs paid the bills and helped her grow as a photographer.

This book would change things for her. She’d crisscrossed the country visiting national parks and photographing the hidden beauty in the different climates and elevations in the United States. Ruby planned to visit three more parks and then she would put her book together and find an agent. For now, she would soak up the beauty and capture it through her lens.

For the first nine years of her life, Ruby was a city girl through and through. She and her mom lived in a funky one bedroom apartment in Hollywood, surrounded by freaks, geeks, and weirdos. She’d loved it. Between her mother’s tumultuous relationships, they would walk everywhere, taking advantage of what the city had to offer. After a bad breakup, they would pig out at Mel’s Diner, and when she thought she’d found The One they indulged at Cold Stone Creamery. Then her life had gone to hell when her mother’s lover killed her, and Ruby had been forced into the foster care system. Five homes later she was sent to live on a ranch where she learned the importance of a strong work ethic and hard work at the hands of a tough and loving couple. And a love of the outdoors. Sliding her sunglasses onto her face, Ruby forged ahead thinking about things she hadn’t thought about in years. It was probably here, being close to the only other home she’d known that brought those memories to mind.

Excuse me, Miss?

Pulled from the past, she turned toward the deep velvety voice and gasped. The man was a vision. His long, lean body encased in cargo shorts; golden hair dusted bronzed calves; a t-shirt stretched across broad shoulders, and bronze-toned arms made her mouth water. Never mind the floppy blonde hair and sparkling brown eyes. Damn. Yes?

He smiled as though he knew exactly what she was thinking. Do you know which way the Sherman Trail is?

She smiled. Yep. I’m starting there too, walk with me. She turned and continued on, smiling at the gorgeous man running to catch up with her.

Hey, thanks. I’m Jack, he held out his hand, and she took it with a smile.

Ruby.

What brings you here on a Wednesday, Ruby?

Shrugging she looked at him, glad her gaze was hidden behind oversized sunglasses. I’m working on a photography book, visiting the national parks. You?

Jack sighed and turned his face toward the sky; a magnificent smile stretched across his handsome, chiseled face. I’ve just finished a week of camping and figured I’d visit the park before heading home.

You went camping alone? Are you heartbroken?

He smiled at her softened expression and gentle voice. "Not heartbroken, but I needed some me time and out here where no one can reach me was the best place. Plus it’s amazing."

On that we agree, she said, enjoying the companionable silence as they hiked. The Sherman Trail was easy, and they quickly moved on to a lesser worn trail that was slightly more difficult. It was nice to have someone beside her and knowing they didn’t need to talk, but just knowing they were there.

Jack was mesmerized by the long smooth brown legs walking in front of him on the narrow strip of the trail. They were shapely; they looked silky smooth, and he could only think about doing dirty things with them wrapped around his body. So where do you call home, Ruby?

She smiled over her shoulder. Southern California.

Smart girl. Giving a vague answer made him smile. Me too.

Cool. She stopped and looked at him. You want to stop for a bit, have some water and maybe a snack?

He gave her an assessing glance and then smiled. I’m fine, but we should turn around. Rain will be here soon.

She laughed. That will give me great pictures, so I think I’ll stay. It was nice to meet you, Jack. Ruby waved and continued on the path.

Damn stubborn woman.
