Rainbow
Valley, Texas, has always been a refuge for animals, and
Shannon North, director of the local shelter, intends to
keep it that way. But with donations drying up and more pets
in need of a loving home than ever before, Shannon's
beginning to fear she's not the savior the shelter needs.
When a tall, dark, and handsome cowboy from her past comes
to the rescue, she knows that accepting his help may come
with a high price: her heart.
THE SECOND TIME
AROUND
Bad boy Luke Dawson shook the dust from
this little town off his boots years ago. He walked away
from everything . . . except the memory of the one night of
passion he shared with Shannon. Now, a few wins away from
becoming the world bull-riding champion, Luke's headed for
fame and fortune. But then a crisis calls him back to
Rainbow Valley, and Luke is reunited with the good girl who
stole-and broke-his heart. As their rekindled relationship
deepens into desire, old secrets resurface, and Luke must
choose between the future he's always dreamed of and the
only woman he's ever loved.
