When the going gets tough, the tough get busy. Real busy.
In Millbrook, Texas, there are cowboys. Then there are the Kiels, every girl's idea of perfection in tight-fittin' jeans. Peyton James is no different. Only she doesn't want to admit it -- because three years ago Brent Kiel ripped out her heart and handed it back in teeny little pieces.
In a twist of fate Peyton wound up engaged to Brent's best friend. The engagement might be off now, but no one needs to know, right? It keeps the questions at bay...and the temptation called Brent Kiel out of reach. Until the night he shows up at her family's bar.
The only reason Brent agrees to meet his brothers at Big Jack's is that Peyton never darkens the door on a Friday night. Except tonight. Seeing her is a painful reminder of his mistake and what it cost him -- and that no other woman's lips or body will ever satisfy him like hers.
Nothing -- not the past, not her legendary temper, not even the rock on her finger -- will keep this cowboy from getting what he wants...
