Wrangled Up — Em Petrova

It'll take more than rope to tie down the man they love.When Christian comes out of the bar to find a bat-wielding country girl beating the hell out of his best friend Tucker's truck, he does the only thing he can-he flirts with her. Unfortunately, he knows her pain-he's in love with Tucker too.Claire plans to nurse her bruised heart alone, but inevitably Tucker draws her back in-along with Christian-and the three of them tumble headlong into delirious passion. Then she and Christian wake to find that Tucker has fled his horse ranch, leaving them to care for the animals and each other.Still grieving the death of his fiancée, pressured to sign over mining rights to a coal company, Tucker is boots-deep in emotional turmoil. Running only sharpens his longing for what he truly wants-Christian and Claire in his bed, in the barn, and under the stars. But roping themselves firmly inside the circle of love will take everything they have-bulldogged determination, flying fists and aching hearts.Warning: Wrangle one heartsick cowboy, and the man and woman who love him. Throw in weeks of working in close quarters, bales of pent-up lust, and feel the burn of prairie-fire-hot desire. Now just try to walk away with your heart unbranded.
