Saddle bronc rider Clay Tanner is looking for a good time and the tempting little blonde at the rodeo looks like she could use one—except she turns him down. Feeling like he’s been bucked off before the eight second buzzer, Clay’s betting he can score if she’ll give him a re-ride. But qualifying may call for more than he’s prepared to give.

Dusty Morgan is determined to resist the sexy rough stock rider staking out her station. Even though Clay’s deep timbre sends tingles clear to her toes, she’s vowed never to get tangled up with someone who makes their living through rodeo and she’s not interested in a hit and run. Though he may be what she desires, Dusty knows from experience he isn’t what she needs—or is he?
