A fresh start on the family ranch

Ray Griffith returns to his family’s cattle ranch after a bull-riding accident leaves him using a wheelchair and rebuilding his life. His new home aide arrives with her own precarious footing, and an agreement meant to keep their working relationship uncomplicated becomes difficult to maintain as attraction grows. The setup brings contemporary romance together with questions of independence, care, and starting over after a life-changing injury. As the second book in the Griffith Brothers series, it also places Ray’s personal story within the broader family-ranch setting.

Book overview

A paraplegic bull rider and his new home aide fall in love as they pick up the pieces of their lives in the second book in the popular Griffith Brothers series.

Rule #1 of almost dying: Make sure someone knows your passwords. It's hard to cancel your phone plan if you're dead.

Rule #2 of almost dying: Make sure your house is clean before you walk up the steps to the pearly gates. It makes selling off your life easier.

All it took was eight seconds for Ray Griffith to win the biggest competition of his life, and one second to lose everything except that championship buckle. He'd left his family's cattle ranch at eighteen with no intention of ever coming back for good. Now he's back, learning to navigate life in a wheelchair with a beautiful disaster attempting to burn the house down.

Rule #1 of trying to not get fired: Don't piss off the grumpy bull rider.

Rule #2 of trying to not get fired: When you do get fired, keep your chin up. The grumpy bull rider was hot.

It was just a little fire. Tiny, even. But that didn't change the fact that Ray Griffith didn't want her anywhere near him. But they reached an agreement: if she ignores him, he doesn't fire her. Easy, right? Turns out not so much if they can't keep their hands off each other.
