The path to true love lies deep in the heart of Texas!
As a child, the Rocking C was Blake Darnell’s home away from home. Now it’s a place for former rodeo cowboys to hang up their spurs...and the LA attorney is back in Texas to stop his uncle from making the biggest mistake of his life! Until he locks horns with Shannon Cramer, the sexy RN in charge of the place.
Blake thinks his uncle is falling for a gold-digger, but Shannon believes it’s love even if the gorgeous, jaded lawyer doesn’t. Agreeing to disagree gets complicated as their attraction heats up. But the born-and-bred cowgirl’s digging in her boot heels—she’ll settle for nothing less than this city slicker’s heart!
Rocking Chair Rodeo: Cowboys—and true love—never go out of style!
He could see the wheels turning in her mind, no doubt going over those blasted questions he’d been asking himself ever since that last kiss.
And he sensed the yearning in her eyes, the desire.
“What are we going to do about this?” he asked finally.
“I know what I’d like to do,” Shannon said. “But you’ll be leaving soon. Right?”
She bit down on her bottom lip, a pensive reaction that sent Blake’s blood racing. He suspected she was about to agree to the suggestion he hadn’t actually spelled out.
That was, until she looked up, caught his eye and said, “Believe it or not, I’m an old-fashioned girl.”
Which meant what? That before making love she wanted a ring, a white lace gown, a walk down the aisle to the altar and a vow that would last forever?
He supposed he couldn’t blame her for that. But that wasn’t something he could offer her.
They sat quietly for a while, but her words still hung in the air. And so did his desire for her.
He reached for her hand. “I’m afraid that, under the circumstances, I can’t give you any kind of commitment. But I can give you tonight.”

He’d been...fired? Seriously?
Blake Darnell bent forward in his tufted-leather desk chair and studied the legal document he’d just received in the afternoon mail. He was so caught up in reading СКАЧАТЬ
