About this ebook

The award-winning author who "writes real cowboys with heart and soul" (Carolyn Brown, New York Times bestselling author) welcomes you to Unforgiven, New Mexico, a small western town filled with love and second chances!

This cowboy's got one last chance to prove himself.

Carly Beauchamp has loved cowboy Austin Davis since first grade. Ask anyone in their dusty, backwater New Mexico town of Unforgiven, and they'll say "Carly and Austin" the way some say "big trucks and country boys." But after years of waiting for a wedding ring, Carly's done with being a rodeo widow . . .

Austin never meant to put his career on the circuit before Carly. She's always been his future, his one and only. But now that she's moved on, he's beginning to see where he went wrong, and he'll do anything to win her back. The only thing is, Carly's suddenly acting differently, and she's definitely hiding a secret-one that will test the depth of their love and open up a whole new world of possibilities.

Ratings and reviews

I truly enjoyed this one. Not your typical second chance romance but an intriguing story nonetheless. It's full of lots of cowboy and small town goodness along with intriguing characters that keep you wanting more. For years in Forgiven NM it's been Carly and Austin together. Yet after all this time there still isn't a ring on her finger. Austin goes from one rodeo to the next secure in the knowledge that Carly will be there waiting for him. Well Carly's had enough! After calling it quits with Austin Carly decides she needs to get out and have a little fun for a change. That one night will change the course of Carly's life forever! I definitely recommend this one.

Loved this sweetly thrilling second chance romantic journey filled with love, laughter and growing pains that are very true to life..... could not get enough of this emotionally engaging and heartwarming small town adventure that has me loving Chestnut Creek and looking forward to revisiting this series and its awesome charters.
