Book excerpt: What happens when a cowboy gets a second chance with the only woman he's ever loved, ten years after he lost her the first time? Cohabitation between best friends gets tricky when a rugged cowboy decides to follow his heart… ★★★★★ "A wonderful book that has everything you’d want in a love story & I loved, loved, loved it." ~Elaine (Five-star Goodreads Review) Ten years ago, the shadows that haunt Ryder Stockton made him walk away from his best friend, the only woman he ever loved. When he sees her in a local café, all his romantic feelings come surging back…twice as strong. She needs a friend. He wants her heart. Can he give her both? When Zoey Wilson returns to her hometown of Rogue Valley to recover from a shattering divorce, the last thing she wants is romance, especially with the man who broke her heart so long ago. But when her apartment burns down and she moves in with Ryder for a few days as "friends only," suddenly she finds herself getting much closer with her former best friend than she wants…or does she? As determined as Zoey is to get out of town as fast she can, the dangerous, handsome cowboy she's always loved is equally determined to do it right this time…and win her heart forever. ★★★★★ "Ryder and Zoey are simply perfect!
