Stuck with the Grumpy Bull Rider

A Second Chance, Best Friend's Brother Romance

By: Leah Banks

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Maverick Barnes is a broody, chiseled cowboy built for breaking hearts and riding rough.

He’s my best friend’s brother—and the man who shattered me years ago with a single kiss.

Now I’m jobless, homeless, and living in his kitchen with nothing but a duffel bag and a pile of old feelings.

His reputation is ten feet wide and twice as hard as those biceps flexing beneath his t-shirt.

Our accidental reunion is a slow-burning wildfire, fueled by forced proximity and sizzling nights in a too-small house.

He grumps. I tease. The tension crackles hotter than a Wyoming sunset.

I swore I’d never fall for the cowboy who left me in the dust.

But six weeks of closed doors and shared glances is tempting me to risk everything I’ve built.

He’s chasing redemption. I’m chasing freedom.

If we collide again, someone’s going to get burned.

The rodeo isn’t the only place he’s about to ride for his life—and this time, it’s my heart in the arena.
