Her Rodeo Bear by Meg Ripley

Now that Sierra’s back in town, the rodeo jackpot isn’t the only prize I’m competing for.

Wade:
I live for the roaring crowds, epic jackpots, and wild nights of rodeo season.
I’m kicking it off with a hometown competition, so I expect that win will be mine.
But what I didn’t expect?
To run into my old flame down at the Full Moon Saloon.
The way things ended, I didn’t think I’d see her around these parts again.
But here she is, eager to compete against me—
And now sopping wet after I clumsily spilled a tray of beers all over her.
My inner grizzly remembers the white-hot nights Sierra and I used to share.
But Sierra won’t let me forget that we’ll never work as mates.
Now, the only jackpot I want is her.

Sierra:
I left Wyoming after high school and never looked back.
I’ve been touring the country ever since, collecting trophy after trophy.
When the rodeo circuit lands me back in Sheridan, I figure the past won’t haunt me.
But sure enough, I bump into the infamous Wade Morgan.
We weren’t right for each other back then, so we definitely wouldn’t be now—
Or at least that’s what I try to tell my stubborn bear.
But seeing those dark eyes and that gorgeous body of his isn’t helping.
Too bad his ass looks so good in those jeans, ‘cause I’m about to whoop it.
I’m not gonna let my bear distract me now.
That prize is mine.
