TOO CLOSE TO HOME
Cassidy Beckett has a secret she’s kept for six years: the identity of her son’s father. She can’t hide the truth much longer. The Easy Money Arena’s new bull manager, Shane Westcott, also happens to be the boy’s handsome uncle. But Cassidy will do anything to protect her young son, even if it means steeling her heart against Shane’s nearly irresistible charm.
It doesn’t take Shane long to figure out two things—Cassidy’s son is his nephew, and his feelings for the boy’s beautiful mother go way beyond friendship. As a single dad, Shane knows how important a father is to a child. He also knows the men in Cassidy’s life have let her down before. Can Shane convince Cassidy to face the truth without losing her trust...or his heart?
“Are you okay?”
“Never better.” Shane grinned. “The bull barely nicked me.”
She studied him critically. “You’re limping.”
He laughed, he couldn’t help it, and lowered his voice. “I appreciate the concern, Cassidy. It means a lot to me.”
“Of course I’m concerned. That was a close call.”
“Is that the only reason?” He leaned in. A mere fraction at first, then more.
She drew abruptly back. “I don’t know what you’re implying.”
“That you’re worried about me because you might like me a little.”
“Well, I don’t.”
His grin widened. “Could have fooled me.”
“You always did have a big ego.”
“Matched only by my...” He let the sentence drop.
“Shane!”
“Confidence,” he finished with a chuckle.
“Clearly you’re just fine. I don’t know why I worried.” Cassidy spun on her heel and stalked away.
Try as he might, Shane couldn’t stop staring as she walked.
Then again, he wasn’t trying very hard.
I often write about blended families. I find the skill of balancing delicate relationships makes for challenging writing and compelling reading. And adding a secret that someone doesn’t want revealed ups the stakes and results in an even more interesting story. I have all those things and more in this third installment of my Reckless, Arizona series, The Bull Rider’s Son.
While I hate to see a series end, I have to say I like this last book the best. Nothing scares a mother more than the fear of losing her child, even temporarily. Cassidy Beckett has good reason to live in dread. She never got over the heartache of her brother’s abandonment when he left her to live with their father. When Shane Westcott, her son’s uncle, shows up at the Easy Money Rodeo Arena, it’s all Cassidy can do to prevent history from repeating itself. She must keep the identity of her son’s father a secret at all costs, something that would be infinitely easier if she weren’t wildly attracted to Shane.
Yes, delicate relationships. Definitely challenging and fun, and why we read romance! As always, I hope you enjoy this book. And if you’re inclined to drop me a line, I always enjoy hearing from readers.
Warmest wishes,
