About this item

From New York Times bestselling author Jill Gregory-a heart-warming, romantic novel of a rodeo champion who returns to his hometown and unexpectedly falls in love-with a beautiful young woman and her tiny daughter. When rodeo champ Jake Tanner returns to Lonesome Way, Carly McKinnon may be the only one not happy about it. The last thing she wants is Jake finding out about her daughter-or rather, their daughter. Since their one-night fling years ago, Carly has been a great parent on her own. And the footloose Jake isn't the sort of father she wants for little Emma. But once Jake learns the truth, he wants to be a part of Emma's life even if he's not going to be a part of Carly's. Even though the pair agrees to try to be friends, they soon find that being "just friends" isn't so easy.
