      Back in the saddle again...

      Tyler Ellis catches Kit Hayes completely off guard when he swaggers back home and into the bar she manages. Since high school, he’s been a champion rodeo star...a notorious playboy...and now, apparently, a bar owner. She accepts his offer of a hefty bonus and helps him transform the place because she’s desperate to escape their tiny town in the Sierras. She doesn’t expect him to work this hard beside her. Where’s the cocky cowboy he’s supposed to be? Instead she discovers he’s still the sweet, genuine young man she once knew. And so much more...including a threat to the adventurous life she craves.

      “I’ll help you—teach you how to run this place.”

      Tyler wanted to hug her, his relief was so deep. He put a hand to his heart instead. “Thank you. Seriously. Thank you.”

      Kit nodded. Then glanced at the sky. “It’s getting late. You’d better go get that booze. And this week we’ll fill out the order form for the bar together. Maybe we can come up with a form that’s less confusing, too.”

      It was all he could do not to fist-pump the air. She was going to help him. But he kept his voice steady. “That would be great. And we’ll get a contract drawn up, with the terms of our partnership, so you can be sure you’ll get everything we talked about.” He turned toward his truck, then looked back. “See you soon.”

      He liked saying it. He liked knowing it was true.

      Backing his truck down the driveway, he paused for a moment. He felt funny. Lighter. And he realized it was Kit. With her on his side he knew he could do anything. With her help they could make The Dusty Saddle a success. He’d just have to remember not to fall for her, because he was pretty sure he was already partway there.

      Dear Reader,

      The Sierra Legacy series has been about many things, but overall it’s about the legacy left by Nora, Wade and Arch Hoffman’s father, his crimes and his abuse. In the first three books of the series, Nora, Wade and Arch all had their chance to come to terms with their past, to discover their purposes in life and to find the loves of their lives.

      But there’s one person still reeling from everything that’s happened: Kit Hayes, the woman who loved Arch, and who has never been able to move on from that love.

      His Last Rodeo is Kit’s story, her chance to realize her dreams and break free of the past. And it’s the story of Tyler Ellis, a man trying to come to terms with his own past as a rodeo champion, as a son and as someone who struggles to overcome a hidden disability.

      It was such fun to write their chemistry, humor, friendship and love. I hope you enjoy their journey. And thank you for reading the Sierra Legacy series!
