He told himself he was over her.

She told herself she could handle seeing him again.

They were both wrong, and neither one of them wants to be right.

When Lyric shows up at my event asking questions about irregularities on the circuit, I know exactly what she’s talking about—because I’ve been noticing the same things. Someone’s rigging scores, drugging stock, and now they’ve made it clear they’ll do whatever it takes to keep her quiet. I’m not letting her chase this alone. Sangre Vista Ranch is safe, and we can work together to figure out who’s behind this before anyone else gets hurt. The problem is, having her close means remembering why I could never keep my hands off her.

LYRIC

I’ve covered rodeos long enough to know when something’s wrong, and what I’m finding goes deeper than bad luck or coincidence. Approaching Kingston West means facing the man I walked away from, but when my investigation puts a target on my back, he’s the only person I trust. Working together at his family’s ranch should be simple: pool our information, find the truth, and expose whoever’s destroying the sport we both love. Except nothing about being near this cowboy has ever been simple, and every day I spend in his world makes leaving again feel impossible.

While each book in the Roaring Fork Ranch series features one couple and a guaranteed HEA, the series may be more enjoyable read in order.
