Love at Second Chance: A Small-Town Cowboy / Curvy Girl Romance (Rough & Ready Country) by Engrid Eaves

She was my first love and greatest heartbreak, but can I trust again when fate gives us a second chance? My feelings run hot and deep when it comes to Rebecca "Birdie" Jenkins. The only thing I hate more than admitting to these tempestuous emotions is the woman inspiring them. I remember a time when we couldn't keep our hands off each other. Now, I can barely stand to look at her… Let alone see Rebecca every day at Rough & Ready Ranch, working as my dad's home healthcare nurse. My brothers think I'm stubborn—that I should give her a break. But the break she gave my heart is something I'm still not over and not about to repeat.
