About this audiobook

Former bull rider turned rodeo clown, Hal Jenkins has found peace in Riverbend, away from his murky past. He’s also found Lucy Malory, a fiery, green-eyed woman full of laughter who might just like him back.

But Hal’s peace is ripped away when someone from his old life returns, threatening Hal and putting Lucy firmly in danger.

Lucy likewise came to Riverbend to heal from humiliation and a broken heart. Her interest in life renews, thanks to her new job and also the handsome Hal, who always seems to be there when she needs him.

As Hal’s life grows ever more complicated, he wants Lucy anywhere but near him. Lucy fears she faces another heartbreak when Hal is ready to run again. How can Lucy convince him that Riverbend is the best place to make his stand? And that she will stand with him?

Ratings and reviews

Gotta love a strong, silent type, and Hal is that, and a perfect gentlemen! Hal is perfect in his own way, and a total sweetheart, though no pushover. Nope, this gentlemen cowboy stands his ground, and is just as overprotective as his OTT counterparts. He needs that because Lucy is his perfect balance, and needs that soft touch after life knocked her down. These two match perfectly, and when the timing was finally right, nothing could keep them apart <3
