A WOMAN NEVER FORGETS HER FIRST COWBOY . . . As a single mother, Naomi Sullivan is used to doing things on her own. She's finally saved enough from working at the Cortez Ranch to buy a lovely home for her and her little girl. Life is going as planned. But when her high school sweetheart comes riding back to town, this self-sufficient woman feels something she hasn't felt in years: red-hot, unbridled need for the handsome cowboy who left her behind.
Lucas Cortez doesn't plan on being in town long. Yet when he sees Naomi again-the gorgeous girl he never stopped loving-he's tempted to hang up his hat and stay awhile. He's already charmed his way into her daughter's heart, but he'll need more than sweet talk and roses to convince Naomi to give them a second chance-especially when she's hiding a secret that could change their lives forever . . .

A yellow Volkswagen Beetle blitzed toward Lucas, picking up speed.
Yep, he’d know that car anywhere. Naomi.
He watched her draw closer and closer, and just like it always did
when Naomi got near, his heart picked up. Would she stop and give him a lift to
the ranch? They hadn’t exactly been alone since he’d come back to Topaz Falls.
She’d made sure of that.
As the yellow car sped around the curve, he lifted a hand to flag
her down, but the car didn’t slow. Maybe she hadn’t seen him. Waving his arms,
he stepped onto the shoulder…
Shit! The car was coming right for him! Adrenaline
fired through him and sent him rolling into the ditch just as the car’s brakes
screeched. The thing skidded and fish tailed, likely taking out half of the
tires’ tread.
Breathing in the scent of burnt rubber, Lucas stared up at the sky.
Well, that’d been one hell of a close shave.
The car door opened and out Naomi flew, stumbling down the
embankment in her polished red heels, to where he lay on the ground.
“God, Lucas. I was so distracted I didn’t even see you.” Her
delicate hands covered her face. “My god, I almost hit you.”
She staggered a few steps.
That got him off the ground. “Hey.” He hurried over to her,
brushing the gravel off his ass. “I’m fine.” He’d been through a hell of a lot
worse than a tumble down into a ditch. “See. No blood. I’m good.”
She nodded, but seemed to be on the verge of hyperventilating.
Which meant she was in no condition to get behind the wheel of that car.
“Why don’t I drive you back to the ranch?” He slipped an arm around
her waist to support her, and he couldn’t resist drawing her close to him,
closer than she’d been in ten long years. She still smelled like carefree
summer afternoons—a subtle hint of lemon along with the coconut oil she used to
use to soften her hands. That scent, the feel of her leaning into his body,
roused a sudden overpowering greed. He’d never hungered as desperately for
something as he hungered for her. To turn her fully to him. To feel those
breasts he used to kiss so intimately against his own chest again. He knew that
body, remembered every curve and bend, every fine detail…
“I’m okay,” Naomi whispered, shaking him off. “I can walk.”
Of course she could. But she did hand him the keys before hurrying
to climb into the passenger’s seat without his assistance.
Lucas folded himself into the driver’s seat. “All right, then.
We’re off.” He started the engine and backed up, then turned carefully out onto
the highway.
He stole a glance at Naomi. Her soft lips twitched as he studied
her. It wasn’t her full, bright, beautiful smile.
But it was a start.
