True To Your Boots - Paperback

She's desperate for a home. He won't be tied down.

Ava Garcia is unshakable. Nothing, not single-moming, corporate competitors, nor lying boyfriends will stop her from buying the ranch of her dead husband's dreams! Until a strip mall confrontation turns explosive. Now she's stranded, feeling more stray dog than damsel in distress as she puts her faith in a charmingly persistent stranger. Lucky for her, he's a decent human, albeit a shameless flirt. And when he flashes her one too many lopsided smiles, her mind starts wandering to 'what ifs.' No! He's a self-proclaimed nomad, and she hasn't busted her butt for years only to give up everything now.

Eli Anderson is not running. He just likes helping people. That's why he became a traveling mechanic, so no one gets stranded. Ironic, because he's stuck at his dad's hobby ranch for the summer, trying to hire a ranch manager. An impossible task until fate dumps him in a strip mall with a woman who's having a worse day than he is. Turns out, she's smart, sexy, and good with horses-everything he's ever wanted. For the ranch. Too bad she's already got plans.
