Second Chance Cowboy (Road to Romance #2)

SECOND CHANCE COWBOY                        JOANNE ROCK

Dancer Larissa Martine is ready to start over and Las Vegas seems like the perfect city for a shiny new beginning. But first, to honor her pact with her girlfriends, she wants to make a quick stop in Cheyenne, WY to make amends with her first love, the guy she left to chase her dreams of Broadway fame. Except rancher Matt Briggs isn’t nearly as interested in her regrets as he is in keeping her in town for his sister's wedding. It’s a request she can’t deny when his family takes up the cause to make her stay for just one more week, but it’s difficult to maintain her friends-only boundaries with a man who attracts her as much as ever.

After losing his father and inheriting the family ranch in addition to the one he’d bought on his own, Matt’s life is all about obligations. But Larissa’s unexpected arrival during the wedding mayhem is a bright spot he won’t ignore, even if that means tempting her into far more than just a dance. He figures one night with her will bring them both some peace with their past, which is all she said she wanted. But one night leaves Matt wanting a whole lot more and this time, he’s willing to gamble everything to make her stay. 

PAT'S REVIEW

Dancer Larissa Martine is back in her home town Cheyenne Wyoming on her way to Las Vegas for a tryout. Her career is over in New York after eight years. She now wants to make things right with the only man she has ever loved and she broke up with him through a text message. Matt Briggs is working to ranchers is own and his families after his father died in an accident. He is now also dealing with helping his sister getting ready for her wedding. He is stressed but it is okay that is until he sees Larissa walk into a bar he thought for sure he would never see her in again. Now all of the old feelings are coming back along with the hurt. On top of everything else his sister has seen her and has made her agree to stay for her wedding. He wants to be mad at her but he can’t he still loves her but he must get out of his own way and figure out how he can tell her he wants her to stay and not go to Vegas. She is going through her own emotions towards him and why she even left to begin with. Now actually not knowing what she wants to do is confusing her when she thought she had it all figured out? Then he surprises her by saying that he will follow her to Vegas because she did not give him that chance the last. What will happen to them? Read this good story about love and family.
