BACK IN THE RING
Clover Van Camp meets her match when her plans to turn a struggling Arizona town into a Wild West resort are blocked by the hunky mayor, retired bull rider Danny Leigh. To make things more complicated, this isn’t the first time the two of them have tangled…
Danny knows Clover usually gets her way, but this time he won’t back down. He’s got a few things to answer for and a town to save. Besides, reconnecting with his former fling has benefits, as long as he doesn’t get distracted by their mutual attraction. Will Danny and Clover let their ambition keep their hearts divided?
“Clover Van Camp doesn’t have a boyfriend!” Danny teased.
Clover shook her head. “Nope, I’ve been focusing on work. What about you?”
“Nah. Between my business and being mayor, I just don’t have the time.”
“Didn’t you say you could always make time for the ladies?”
“I said that in an interview when I was twenty-one and just won a buckle!” Danny laughed. “So…you kept up with me?”
She may have followed his career…a little. She blushed. “I followed everyone I knew from bull riding.”
“Good recovery.” He laughed again, his blue eyes bright with humor. “Well, I’d better get going.”
“It was good to visit.” She smiled.
“Same here.” He didn’t move, his gaze on her face.
Her breath quickened just a little. Danny grinned as he put out his hand for a shake. As she grasped his strong hand she felt that old flush of heat and desire working its way through her. How could that be, more than ten years after that summer?
She tugged him toward her…and Danny didn’t hesitate.
Danny Leigh was nearly shouting at me to tell his story. The trouble was that where his story started is not where it ended up. He and his first love, a Texas cowgirl with New York blue-blood roots, taught me that changing horses midstream isn’t easy, but it makes the destination that much sweeter. Of course, I got Danny back, torturing him just a little in this Angel Crossing, Arizona, book. Bwa-ha-ha.
At the heart of this reunion romance are two people just trying to do the best they can: Mayor Danny working to improve his town by remaining true to its roots and Clover Van Camp planning to transform the community into a Wild West resort with jobs and prosperity for one and all. Of course, the residents of Angel Crossing aren’t going to let this battle play out without putting in their two cents every chance they get.
I have so many more stories to tell about Angel Crossing and I can’t wait to do that. When I look back on how this all started with The Surgeon and the Cowgirl, I do wonder what the inspiration fairies were drinking.
