Best friend’s little sister. Ex-military cowboy. One small town—and one second chance.
Former Marine and veterinarian Lyle Watkins came back to Bear Valley with scars he doesn’t talk about and a six-year-old goddaughter who needs a home. He’s not looking for love—until Heather Prescott, his best friend’s younger sister, shows up with a rescued puppy and turns his world upside down.
Heather swore she’d never return to Texas, but starting over in her hometown—with her search-and-rescue dog-training business, and the boy she once secretly loved—might be exactly what she needs.
When danger from Heather’s past comes calling, Lyle will risk everything to protect her. But opening their hearts might be the hardest rescue mission of all.
