About the book: year / It’s banned, but he never followed the rules. For the first time in her life, Clementine "Emmy" Ryder doesn't know what to do. She completed everything on her to-do list. She left her hometown of Meadowlark, Wyoming, went to college and built a career doing what she loved: horseback riding. But after an accident leaves her unable to get back into the saddle, she has no choice but to return to the hometown she always wanted to escape. Luke Brooks is an incorrigible scoundrel, bar owner and Meadowlark bachelor. He is also the unofficial fifth member of the Ryder family. As Emmy's older brother's best friend, Luke spent much of his childhood feuding with her. It's been years since he's seen her, but when she comes back into his life by walking into his bar, he can't take his eyes off her. Despite his better judgment, he wants to do much more than just look at her. Emmy has too much on her plate to think about romance. And Luke knows he should stay away from his best friend's little sister. But what if Luke is exactly what Emmy needs to get her spark back? Or they'll both burn?
