A Pine Creek Homecoming: A Sweet Cowboy Romance

An eight-second ride only feels like forever. True forever? That feels like home.

Alyssa Morgan could have buckled when Hunter left for the rodeo, taking her heart with him. And she could have withered when her grandfather died and left her alone. Instead, she has made a beautiful life for herself in Pine Creek. Right next door to Hunter's family. Which was fine, since he was never coming back.

Hunter Carlson isn't ready to say goodbye to the professional rodeo circuit. But when the doctor warns him that another concussion could leave him permanently injured-or worse-he is left with no choice but to head back to Pine Creek. Working on the family ranch isn't as exciting as a bucking bull, but it should pay the bills.

Alyssa is speechless when Hunter comes back to town. Pine Creek isn't exactly bustling, and any of Alyssa's attempts to avoid Hunter are hopeless. She's on the ranch as much as he is and there's a big problem:

She expected to hate him...Not for the feelings to come rushing back after all these years.
