Rock Springs Texas

No cowboy ever expects to find a woman hiding in their barn. Much less one that is a beautiful as Riley, even with the bruises. I vow to protect her, from whatever she is running from. I will protect her from everything...everything but me.

I met him when I was six. When he saved my life at age 10, we were instant best friends. At age 14, I returned the favor. We knew then we had a bond. But who meets their soul mate age six? So, I ran. Years later and I'm in the hospital again, and he hasn't left my side. Can we put the past behind us? And what about his playboy reputation... Come meet the small town of Rock Springs Texas with a family that has your back, a town that knows your business, and men who love with everything they have. There is plenty of horses, nights under the stars, sweet tea, and a few road trips!

We met in high school when my best friend ditched me for a guy and his date ditched him. We had been best friends ever since. Then one weekend I'm on the ranch alone when one of the cows goes into labor and its having twins. When I see him in action helping me, everything changes. But I can't be falling for my best friend and he can't possibly feel the same way....

I shouldn't want him. He's older than me, he's a rough bar owning cowboy, dangerous. But every time I'm near him I've never felt safer. I've always been a good girl, following my parent's rules, church every Sunday, and good grades in school. But when Jason walks into my life I'm willing to break every rule for him, only he won't let me. This bad boy cowboy is conforming to my parent's rules proving he's worthy of me. Until one of the guys at church start getting a little too pushy, trying to lay claim on me, stalking me, and spreading lies around the church.

I have a secret. I’ve been in love with the cowboy whose family has a lake house here in town since I was 16. His family and he come up to the lake house twice a year for a few weeks. When I started college, we started texting. Last year, the weekly phone calls started, and since I graduated, they have become every night. There is no way he wants a waitress with a college degree who can’t find a job. So why is he extending his stay after his family leaves? Why did he invite me to spend a week at his cabin with him? Why did my heart stop when he kissed me?
