Cowboy Up (Love Stories from Dear Allie)

He’s a retired rodeo star hiding as a bouncer. She’s an
ex-barrel racer who sells mechanical bulls. Missed opportunities and
what-ifs abound when they meet two years after their last date that left
both of them wanting more. Will he convince her to give him another
chance?

Troy: I did a damn good job of falling
into obscurity two years ago, so I can’t believe, of all the women to
walk into the Last Stand Saloon, that it’s her. I don’t believe in
coincidences, but I do believe in fate. And what could be more fated
than the woman of my dreams walking into the one place outside of the
rodeo circuit that has ever felt like home to me?
AnnaRose:
He disappeared two years ago—not just from my life, but from everything
and everyone. So when I showed up at a client’s location, I had no idea
he’d be here—and my professional bull rider wants to pick up where we
left off, starting with a date. He already broke my heart once. Can I
trust him not to do it again?
