The Quarterback and the Dressage Queen by Mary Winter

Erin Salcietto focused on one thing–dressage. In high school her horses were her refuge, as an adult they allowed her the work she loved training and raising horses, as well as operating Two Hearts Rescue South in Missouri, the counterpoint to the main Two Hearts Rescue ranch in Wyoming. She hadn’t thought about her best friend’s brother, high school quarterback turned assistant football coach at the local college, Bryan Dent, but when he shows up at one of her shows, the sparks fly.

Bryan had always wanted Erin, but had thought she was too smart, too focused for him. In high school he’d been the jock, coasting by on his good looks and football skills. Now that he was an assistant coach with a winning football team, he’d achieved all his goals–or so he thought. A chance encounter with Erin reignites old flames, and soon, this jock is wondering how he fits into the Dressage Queen’s world, because he really wants to. And it’s important that he proves to her that he’s more than just a former high school jock.
