Lassoing the single mom’s heart…
A Rocky Mountain Heroes story
Socialite Lily Davis agrees to take her children riding…despite her fear of horses.
But now widowed cowboy Noah Stephens is determined to help her get comfortable in the saddle. And, at her children’s insistence, Lily finds herself promoting his rodeo school.
As Noah and Lily work together, will Noah continue to shield his heart…or can they discover a love that conquers both their fears?
EXCERPT:
The rescue horse jerked her head
in Lily’s direction.
“Oh, my!” Lily’s hands shot into
the air. She dropped everything and pressed her back against the wall, her
heart beating like a bass drum against her ribs. “What just happened?”
Noah reached for the horse’s
halter, shaking his head. “That was my fault.”
“Your fault?”
“Sorry about that. I should have
held on to her so she couldn’t jerk like that.”
“Why did she jerk?” Lily
cautiously bent to pick up the gauze and ointment.
“Your kids ever fuss when you’re
doctoring a scrape or cut?”
“Yes.” She rose slowly, her hands
shaky.
“Same thing. Honey here was
simply reacting.”
Lily shook her head, trying to
understand. “So, you knew she was going to do that?”
“Suspected, yes.” His
matter-of-fact response grated her already frazzled nerves.
“You suspected she might do
something yet you not only didn’t hold her, you failed to warn me?” Her
breathing intensified.
He scratched his head then,
looking rather sheepish. “When you put it like that…”
“How could you do that to me?”
She took two steps in his direction, her gaze narrowed. “You know better than
anyone how terrified I am of horses.”
“I said I was sorry.”
“Well, sorry doesn’t cut it,
buster.” She poked a finger into his chest. “I trusted you and you—”
He took hold of her wrist and
stared down at her, an annoying grin tugging at his lips.
“Let me go.” Her nostrils flared
as she glared up at him.
“You trust me?” He smiled in
earnest now.
“Trusted. Past tense.” She yanked
her hand free, tossed the items at him and continued out the stall door before
looking back. “I won’t make that mistake again.”

I'm curious to read a book about cowboys in Colorado. I've never been to Colorado but I hear it's the perfect landscape for a ranch setting.
