THE BULL RIDER HEADS HOME
Sergeant Amber Chapman didn’t come all the way to Oklahoma City for Luke Beaumont’s autograph. His family ranch, a major tourist attraction, is on the auction block. She’d drag the star bull rider back in handcuffs if it meant saving her hometown! But the biggest attraction is Luke himself...even if he’s always been out of reach for the girl from the wrong side of town.
Luke can’t help himself—he’s drawn to the quick-witted and sassy sheriff, even as they track down the cattle rustlers targeting his ranch. Unless he can make Amber see they’re perfect for each other, Luke might lose her. If he has his way, they’ll be together forever—this cowboy’s betting the ranch on it!
“What’s wrong, Amber? Did I say something to hurt you?”
“Of course not.” She shook her head. “Let’s go.”
Luke held on to her upper arms and searched her face as if her reason for her meltdown was inked on her face.
It would be so easy to step into his arms, just to lay her head on his chest for a while or get a warm hug.
Instead, Luke gently held her face in his hands and kissed her forehead. It was so tender, she almost cried again.
“I hate it when women cry, especially you, Amber. You’re such a strong woman—something must be really bothering you.”
“I can’t tell you. Not right now, Luke. I will someday if the occasion presents itself.”
He bent his head and kissed her lips—softly, lightly. “I’ll wait until you’re ready.”
When he stopped, she wanted to scream. Then his lips closed over hers again, and it was just like her dreams, only much, much better. With each kiss, she knew that she’d never be the same again.
Welcome to Beaumont, Oklahoma, the home of the three bull-riding Beaumont brothers: Luke, Reed and Jesse. They are all Gold Buckle Cowboys.
Luke Beaumont’s story begins my “bull-riding Beaumont brothers” trilogy, which I hope you’ll enjoy.
Of course, Luke is a sexy bull rider (is there any other kind?) who ignored Sergeant Amber Chapman throughout high school. But then she arrives at a public autograph session and gives him a piece of her mind. A big piece. Luke is a prize-winning cowboy who has some personal items to deal with, including Amber Chapman. Lots of luck, Luke!
Life is also good in Central New York, where I live, but I’m writing this in sunny Florida in our new motor home. We plan on driving to some PBR events as well as visiting some rodeos.
See you there!
