He’s all swagger, spotlight, and secrets. She’s fire, fury, and fiercely off-limits.
In the high-stakes world of professional rodeo, Wyatt Darrington has everything—fame, talent, looks—and a secret that could wreck it all. Underneath the flawless image is a man who’s never belonged, especially in the eyes of the sharp-tongued, Texas-born Melanie Brookman. Her distrust is as famous as her bloodline, and her temper has never spared him. But he’s been in love with her for years.
But when Melanie’s career—and confidence—take a devastating hit, the last person she expects to lean on is Wyatt. And the last thing Wyatt can afford is to lose control. Years of sharp words and unspoken feelings combust into a chemistry too hot to hide. But pride and past wounds run deep in Texas… and trusting each other may be the hardest battle they’ve ever faced.
Perfect for readers who crave western romance with emotional grit, deep character arcs, and steam that simmers, Kari Lynn Dell’s Texas Rodeo series blends passion with authenticity like no other."
"He’s the last man she should trust. She’s the one woman he can’t walk away from. In the ruthless world of Texas rodeo, love is the riskiest ride of all.
Violet Jacobs runs her rodeo through sheer will and grit. As a single mother fighting to save her family’s legacy, she’s used to holding the line alone. But she never expected her best chance at survival would come in the form of Joe Cassidy—a cocky, charismatic bullfighter as unpredictable as the bulls he faces, and the last man she should trust with her heart.
Joe didn’t come to Texas looking for roots. Haunted by secrets and running from a troubled past, he planned to keep moving. But the moment he steps into Violet’s world—her messy, loyal family, her relentless devotion, her fierce courage—he discovers a challenge he can’t walk away from. The more he’s drawn in, the more he glimpses the kind of belonging he never thought he could have.
With the rodeo season on the line and the family business hanging by a thread, Violet and Joe must navigate dangerous competition, stubborn hearts, and the high-stakes thrills of life behind the chutes. As they battle for a future neither dared to imagine, they’ll discover that some risks are worth everything—and that in Texas, love can be the bravest gamble of all.

It took 32 seconds to end his career, but it only took 1 to change his life.
Thirty-two seconds. That's how long it took for Delon Sanchez's life to end. One minute he was the best bronc rider in the Panhandle and the next he was nothing. Knee shattered, future in question, all he can do is pull together the pieces…and wonder what cruel trick of fate has thrown him into the path of his ex, the oh-so-perfect Tori Patterson.
Tori's finally come home, intent on escaping the public eye. It's just her luck that Delon limps into her physical therapy office, desperate for help. All hard-packed muscle and dark-eyed temptation, he's never been anything but a bad idea. And yet, seeing him again, Tori can't remember what made her choose foolish pride over love…or why, with this second, final chance to right old wrongs, the smartest choice would be to run from this gorgeous rodeo boy as fast as her boots can take her.

"There's a reason they call this cowboy relentless
Gil Sanchez was once rodeo's biggest and baddest hotshot. Now he's thirteen years sober and finally free of the pain that ended his skyrocketing career. Given one last, near-miraculous shot to claw his way back to rodeo glory, he can't let fantasies of happily-ever-after dull his razor edge . . . but Carmelita White Fox is every dream he's never let himself have.
And from the moment he saw the spark of challenge in her eyes, he hasn't been able to look away.
Carma may come from a Blackfeet family noted for its healing abilities, but even she knows better than to try to fix this scarred, cynical, and incredibly sexy cowboy. Yet she's the only one who can reach past Gil's jaded armor, and the fiercely loyal heart buried beneath the biting cynicism is impossible to resist. Gil needs Carma just as much as she needs him, but as the pressure builds and the spotlight intensifies, they'll have to fight like hell to save the one thing neither can live without."
"He's always been the black sheep of the family―the troublemaker. But this Christmas, the prodigal cowboy returns for a Texas-sized last chance at redemption.
Rodeo bullfighter Hank Brookman was headed straight for the top. But after a single misstep resulted in devastating injury, he disappeared under a mountain of regrets. Now he's back, ready to face the loved ones he left behind―starting with the one girl his heart could never forget.
When Hank stormed out of their small Texas town, he left Grace McKenna picking up the pieces . . . and struggling with a secret that changed everything. He may be back looking for redemption, but after everything they've been through, how can she admit what he really walked away from all those years ago?
Hank always knew persuading Grace to trust him again would be a tall order. Convincing her they deserve a happily ever after? That may take a Texas-sized Christmas miracle."
"Rodeo bullfighter Wyatt Darrington's got it all figured out. The perfect car, the perfect job, the perfect looks—the perfect lie. He may be on the fast track to the Hall of Fame, but he knows he'll always be an outsider to people like Melanie Brookman. Texas-born and bred, with the arena in her blood, Melanie's come to see Wyatt as her personal enemy, and that suits him just fine—this way, she'll never realize the truth.
He's been crazy in love with her for years.
Melanie's always been a fighter. Fiercely independent and tough as nails, she's stood up to everything that got in her way—including Wyatt. But now her infamous temper's got her on the ropes, and there's nowhere left to run but toward the man she swore she'd never trust . . . and this time, there's no denying just how hot he makes her burn."
