Second Chance Rancher — Brenda Minton

Her Texas Homecoming

At eighteen, Lucy Palermo couldn't wait to join the army and leave Bluebonnet Springs behind. Ten years later, she's come home to fix her family's falling-down ranch and repair the bond with her troubled siblings. Neighboring rancher Dane Scott is even more handsome -- and distracting -- than she remembers. The single dad's priority is making a stable life for his daughter. He needs someone who'll stay -- and straight-talking Lucy doesn't seem to need anyone. But beneath that tough exterior is a loving, softhearted woman. A woman Dane can't help wanting, if he can show her that the town she once fled is the perfect place to start over -- together.
