Description
The scorching Texas sun might not be the only thing that burns them this summer. . .
Saddle up for the sizzling, small-town, single-dad cowgirl romance, perfect for fans of Elsie Silver, Paisley Hope and Hannah Grace.
'An amazing small town cowgirl romance' ? ? ? ? ?
'A delicious slow burn and once that spice hit, I was giggling and kicking my feet' ? ? ? ? ?
She's Texas's toughest bull rider, and he's determined to win her heart. ?? ?? ??
Dakota and Wyatt. Storm and sunshine. Growing up, they were as inseparable as a pair of cowboy boots. The best of friends - or so Dakota thought.
Every summer, Wyatt would come home to his family's flower farm in Granite Falls, Texas, and they'd stargaze in the fields together, pinkies brushing, laughter rumbling with the cicadas . . . until one summer, he never returned.
Dakota hasn't heard a peep from Wyatt in over three years, and during that time, a lot has changed. He's the hockey world's golden boy, and she's developed a reputation as "The Cowboy Killer," breaking both rodeo records and men's hearts. The last thing Dakota needs is a distraction from her bull-riding goals, but everything changes when her old friend waltzes back into town with an adorable baby on his hip.
Wyatt's back to get the girl he's been obsessing over for years, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to get her back - two-stepping at the rodeo, jumping into Cibolo Creek, even rendezvousing in outdoor showers.
All Dakota wants is to keep her distance and focus on training, but when she learns the truth behind why Wyatt left, she finds it hard to stay away. . .
Tropes:
Second Chance
Black Cat x Golden Retriever
He Falls First
Forced Proximity
