After one injury too many, Cade Callahan gave up the rodeo for a simpler life working at his cousin’s horse rescue ranch. But his life turns upside down when his estranged daughter is placed in his custody after a tragic car accident.

Newly single and living out of her mother’s basement, physical therapist Nora Fisher doesn’t think twice about taking a job as a traveling therapist for Cade’s daughter. The trouble is, she doesn’t know anything about horses, or hunky cowboys. Now both in way over their heads, can Cade and Nora find a way to help Allie, and trust in the attraction building between them?

He tightened his arm around her waist, pulling her closer. Her hair brushed his cheek as he lowered his mouth to her ear. “Have I told you how beautiful you look tonight?”
Her shoulders raised as a slight shiver ran through her, and he could hear the smile in her voice. “Yes, but tell me again.”
He pulled back, just far enough to look into her eyes. “Sometimes I look at you and I think you’re so damn beautiful that it makes my chest hurt, and I can’t quite catch my breath.”
“Oh,” she whispered on a gasp, and he had a hard time not leaning down to kiss that perfect circle of her lips. Peering up at him from under her lashes, her gaze was sincere as she whispered, “You sure are making it hard for me not to fall in love with you, Cade Callahan.”
His throat tightened at her words, and he leaned in to kiss her. He didn’t care who saw them. Let the gossips of Creedence go crazy. He had to kiss her.
The song ended just as his lips brushed hers. She pressed her lips to his, a quick press of contact before she stepped away and joined in the round of applause for the band. It was a soft kiss but full of promise of something more to come.
Scarred and battered loner Zane Taylor has a gift with animals, particularly horses, but he's at a total loss when it comes to knowing how to handle women. Even though he's sworn off love, he can't seem to stay away from Bryn Callahan. He's known for being a horse whisperer, but can't seem to find his voice at all where Bryn is concerned.
Bryn Callahan has a heart for strays, but she is through trying to save damaged men. She vows to only date nice guys, which is a category that does not include Zane Taylor. Too bad he's the only one who sets her pulse racing every time she's around him.
Starting a horse rescue ranch wasn't in Bryn's plan, but try telling that to the assembly of abandoned animals that have found their way to her doorstep. And when a chance encounter with a horse headed for slaughter brings Zane and Bryn together, they find themselves given a chance to save not just the horse, but maybe each other...

When a kitchen fire forces young widow Elle Brooks to move in with her friend Bryn and her motley collection of rescue animals, she doesn’t foresee ending up in the muscled arms of handsome cowboy and veterinarian Brody Tate. But she can’t deny the feelings that being close to Brody are stirring in her. Spending time with the hunky cowboy and his adorable young daughter as they rehabilitate rescued horses reminds Elle of all she lost in a car crash years ago.
As a widower himself, Brody is devoted to being a good dad for his spirited daughter. He hasn’t let romance even enter his head. But now he’s met Elle. Spending time with her is shaking up the calm he’s worked so hard to achieve, and he can’t seem to get this woman off his mind.
Elle and Brody have both lost people they loved, but their mutual attraction and growing feelings are too strong to ignore. The hope of a future together is a beautiful possibility, but can these two wounded souls take a chance on each other and find the courage to love again?
