It's the annual 4th of July parade, the first for the Chance brothers since the death of their father. Gabe finds some relief from the grief of the moment when he encounters Morgan O'Connelli. Morgan has returned to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to open a real estate business, and Gabe is intrigued by the woman on the feisty horse in the too-small shirt. Between enticing glances of her considerable assets and calming the horse, Gabe decides Morgan is someone he wants to get to know better. A lot better. And Morgan is more than a little eager to explore her high-school crush on the sexy rodeo rider. Unfortunately, the Chance clan has had their fill of real estate vultures and lump Morgan in with that lot, discouraging her from pursuing the sexy cowboy.

Gabe didn't get where he is on the rodeo circuit without a lot of determination, and he pursues Morgan with the same single-minded determination. Before long, they're burning up the sheets in their "friends with benefits" relationship. Both are sure they don't want anything more than a brief fling, despite the fact that those around them believe they're in it for the long haul. All too soon, they're going to have to confront their pasts and decide where their futures are going.

Vicki Lewis Thompson's second book in the Last Chance Ranch trilogy is a funny, sexy story of two people meant for one another but unable to recognize the truth until it's almost too late. Gabe is caught up with what he wants for his future, and Morgan's life is shaped by much of what happened in her past. When Gabe's family decides to interfere in their relationship, the two come to realize the most important thing is how they feel about one another. Ms. Thompson has written a steamy, thoughtful story of the power of family and love that will leave readers wanting more.

SUMMARY

Morgan O'Connelli hated the restless lifestyle she'd had as a child. All she wants now is to create a real home in small-town Wyoming. So first she hangs up her real-estate agent shingle…then she promptly borrows the horse of the hottest cowboy in town!

Cutting-horse champion Gabe Chance is blown away by the feisty redhead who unexpectedly lands right in his bed…and, soon enough, his heart! Morgan's perfect for him in every way. Until he realizes that while she's turned out to be everything he never knew he wanted, he's got everything someone in her profession has ever wanted…his family's ranch.

And that's a legacy he's just not willing to give up—not even for the sexiest woman he's ever fallen for….
