He's the sunniest man in Three Rivers—and the last person she expected to see again. She's the brilliant, guarded surgeon who once walked out of his life without a word. When Smiles Glover and Dr. Beverly Russell are forced to work side by side at Shiloh Ridge Ranch, can two former best friends find their way back to each other'''and forward into something neither of them planned?
Stetson "Smiles" Glover has always been the golden heart of the Glover family. With his DVM finished and a future at Shiloh Ridge Ranch secured, life looks exactly the way he’s always pictured it. What he didn't envision was Bev Russell walking back into his life four years after she cut off all contact without explanation and broke something in him he never quite named.
Bev is brilliant, precise, and wrapped in armor so thick most people can’t find the woman underneath. She came to Three Rivers for a fresh start: a good job, a chance to dig out from under crushing debt, and a plan to one day build the equine surgical and therapy center she's always dreamed of. She did not come here for Smiles Glover and his blazing blue eyes or his infuriating, relentless, impossible-to-resist sunshine.
But Three Rivers doesn't give anyone room to hide. As the new large-animal surgeon at the local clinic, Bev quickly discovers that Shiloh Ridge Ranch—and Smiles—are impossible to avoid. Ranch calls, emergency surgeries, and meddlesome small town residents conspire to keep them shoulder to shoulder, and the friendship they once shared sparks back to life beneath all the hurt and history.
He wants to know why she left. She's not sure she can tell him the truth—that her ex-husband demanded it, that her marriage was a slow-building nightmare, and that Christmas, of all things, is the season that still makes her chest cave in.
Smiles, who loves the holidays more than almost anything, takes Bevvy's aversion to tinsel and carols as a personal challenge. He doesn't know what's underneath it yet. He only knows that she's the most fascinating, infuriating, quietly tender person he's ever met—and that he's been half in love with her since a late-night college study session years ago.
But when a stunning act of secret generosity brings her carefully constructed independence crashing down, Bev must face the question she's been running from since she arrived: Is Smiles Glover trying to take care of her—or trying to own her?
Can Smiles convince Bev that sunshine isn't a trap—and can Harper learn to let herself be loved before she walks away from the best thing she's never let herself have?
Fall in love in small town Texas with this cowboy billionaire and his best friend! With forced proximity, workplace romance, equine massage, small town rumors and meddling bosses, this final book in the Cowboys of Three Rivers series is sure to delight any reader who loves a contemporary western romance, a faith-filled journey, and a swoony romance without spice!
