A broken rodeo king. A plus-size chef who ran from her big city problems straight into his arms. And a family who doesn’t believe in their happy ever after.
After catching my fiancé’s secret on what was supposed to be my wedding day, I needed to get as far from New York as humanly possible.
Summerville, Texas was supposed to be my fresh start. I moved to the sun-baked small town near Dallas to perfect my culinary skills. Falling for a broken cowboy was never on the menu.
When Rhett Sullivan stepped out of his pickup truck on a sunny Friday morning, looking fifty shades of hotter than hell, every plan I had went sideways.
Twice orphaned. Rodeo king. All-American hero who once put his life on the line to save a friend. Those are the things I learned after those devastating green eyes locked onto mine.
By then it was already too late. I was a goner. Rhett is everything my ex never was. And everything I’m terrified to want.
When I bring him home to meet my loud, fiercely protective Irish Italian family—including my six brothers—my mother makes one thing brutally clear.
A broken rodeo king isn’t good enough for her baby girl.
Now I have to choose between the family who raised me and the broken hero I’m falling helplessly in love with. ___________________________________________
