Three-time world champion bull rider Rhett Allen has never been afraid to get his hands dirty. Hard work, sweat, and determination have gotten him where he is today?and that?s holed up in a hospital room, wondering how he let that damn bull buck him off. He?s also wondering why he thought it was a good idea to let his twin brother talk him into returning home to heal. Rhett has a million reasons to come home to Heaven, Texas, and only one reason to stay away. That reason comes in the form of a sweet and feisty girl who stole his heart long before he ever thought to give it away. The only problem?that girl has turned into a stunning woman. Monroe Gallagher is downright sexy with more curves than he has notches in his bed post. It's been six years since he?s seen her, six years since he?s felt any form of peace, and six years since she gripped his heart in her delicate little hands and squeezed the life out of it. The longer he's in Heaven, the more he starts to realize that the heart she took from him?the one she crushed into a million pieces?she also never gave back.
