meet a sexy, sweet talking cowboy. That's not what she came for but fate had
other things in mind.
Wesley Tyler owns two national titles and is riding his way to the
next. The day he meets Hope, he knows there's no going back. He soon learns
Hope carries ghosts with her she can't quite shake. She holds things she wishes
she could let go of. Wesley just may hold the key to helping her overcome it
all. Can he win her over and help mend her broken walls or will her past hold
her down?

Excerpt:
“Excuse
me ladies.” The voice comes from nowhere and I look around spotting Amber first
with her jaw on the ground. She’s speechless, this never happens with her. My
eyes roam to find what’s got her in a comatose state and standing right in
front of us is a guy in Wranglers so tight it should be a crime and a baby blue
dress shirt with those snap buttons. This guy is playing this cowboy part a
little too seriously. His boots are even worn like they are the only pair of
shoes he owns. Oh brother, is he kidding me? I roll my eyes while Ambers jaw is
still on the floor.
She
slowly closes her mouth and manages a weak smile. “Hi.”
My
eyes feel like they are constantly rolling, this is a damn joke. We’re next at
the concession stand and I lean forward asking for a Bud Light. The girl hands
me a big plastic cup filled to the brim. Thank you God. I take a big sip
letting the cool liquid slide down my throat. I look back to see he’s still
standing there and he’s looking at me. Practically staring. His green eyes are
sparkling like emeralds and it takes a second before I’m able to tear mine
away.
“I’m
Wesley.” That drawl in his voice is almost making me swoon but I stop it. He
extends his hand out to me. I can practically hear Amber scoff and I’m agreeing
with her. Why isn’t this guy talking to her? I am no where near ready to speak
to another guy.
Baffled,
I just stand there trying to decipher what’s going on. “I’m Amber, this is
Hope.” Amber interjects and I shoot daggers at her begging her to shut up.
She’s smiling, and I know exactly what she’s doing.
“Nice
to meet you Hope. I won’t bite, I swear. I may nibble and that’s it.” Oh man
Wesley sure has some nerve! I’m rolling my eyes again and I’m really praying he
doesn’t notice because I’m not trying to be rude.
“Nice
to meet you too,” I mumble.
“I
hope you like the rodeo tonight.” He says never taking his emerald green eyes
away from mine. The intensity of his stare takes my breath away.
