Downpour by Maggie Gates

He's lost all hope. She's determined to show him how to live again . . .

RAY Back-up plans are for people who plan on losing. Which is exactly why I didn't have one.

It took eight seconds for me to win the biggest bull-riding competition of my life, and then one second to lose everything except that championship buckle. I left my family's cattle ranch at eighteen with no intention of ever returning. But now I was back, stuck in a wheelchair . . . and with a beautiful disaster attempting to burn my house down.

BROOKE It was just a little fire. Tiny, even. But that didn't change the fact that Ray Griffith didn't want me anywhere near him.

I came here to be his care-giver, and I'm determined to do my job anyway. So we came to an agreement: I ignore him, and he doesn't fire me. Easy, right? Not so much when we can't keep our hands off each other . . . TROPES . . . 🌶? Grumpy x sunshine🌶? Age gap (12 years!)🌶? Disability rep🌶? Small town ranch🌶? Former bull-rider and care-giver🌶?
