Ryder

One hard fall in the rodeo ring.
One maddeningly gorgeous cowboy.
One chance at love she swore shed never take.

Billie Wallace has spent her whole life trying to prove shes more than the Wallace Ranchs "wild" only daughter. All she wants is a shot at barrel racing but when her very first run ends in disaster, Billie lands flat on her back with Ryder Rivers - her childhood crush, her brothers best friend, and the towns notorious heartbreaker - hovering over her.

Ryder has never entertained Billies shameless flirting. But after her fall, hes suddenly everywhere - showing up to help her when shes hurt, staring at her across the honky-tonk when shes trying to move on with a bronc rider, and encouraging her to explore her dream career.

Before either can register whats happening, their partnership sparks into much more than just dust and arguments.

Late nights turn into stolen kisses. Stolen kisses turn into something that feels dangerously like forever.

Ryder swears hes not the staying kind, but the way he looks at Billie like shes the only woman in the world makes her wonder if hes ready to stop running . . .

Ryder is the fifth standalone cowboy romance in the steamy and wildly sexy Lucky River Ranch series by the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jessica Peterson, perfect for fans of Elsie Silver and Lyla Sage.
