The Hometown Legend

About the book

Can this battle-scarred cowboy find redemption in her arms?

Rory Sullivan has always lived in the shadow of her sisters. However, this summer, she is determined to make some changes. Rekindling her friendship with Gideon Payne, the prodigal son of Pyrite Falls, seems like a good start. She can see that he is in pain, but she is tired of being scared of life and refuses to be intimidated by him. Is she brave enough to act on her attraction to Gideon's rugged charm?

Gideon, a decorated army hero, returns to the community which is bustling with parade plans in his honor. However, Gideon is not the same golden boy who left. His life fell apart in an explosion that led to his discharge from the army, costing him his career, his marriage, and nearly himself. Gideon believes Rory is too innocent for someone as damaged as him. Yet, the intense attraction between them is undeniable. All he can offer is something temporary, unless Rory can show Gideon that he is capable of giving her everything she desires.
