A New Plan
Skyler Harrington is a planner. After the tumult of her childhood, she’s built a life for herself in Blue Falls, Texas, that’s comfortable, predictable, safe. The last thing she needs is to go gaga over a rodeo cowboy. It felt great to let her hair down with sexy Logan Bradshaw, but she’ll be happy if their paths never cross again.
A surprise pregnancy is something neither expected. Skyler has no intention of letting her baby grow up the way she did, with an unreliable father. She’s willing to raise their child alone, but Logan is determined to prove there’s more to him than being a devil-may-care risk taker. He’s daddy material!
Opposites attracted, didn’t they?
Skyler closed her eyes and leaned back against the headrest. Images of Logan played through her mind. She didn’t have to admit it to her matchmaking friends, but he was pretty dang hot. Tall, with strong, wide shoulders, a naughty smile and dark hair that was made for a woman’s hands to run through.
Logan Bradshaw was only here visiting and would be gone soon. But India had thought Liam was going to be gone in a matter of days, too. Instead, he’d moved his business from Fort Worth to Blue Falls and proposed marriage.
Skyler laughed under her breath before she caught herself.
“What?” Elissa asked as she put the SUV in Drive.
“Nothing.” But as she stared out the window at the coming twilight, Skyler almost laughed again at the idea of Logan asking anyone to marry him, especially someone as opposite to him as her.
Dear Reader,
It’s time to return to the lovely tourist town of Blue Falls, Texas, to find out which unsuspecting local resident is in the sights of matchmaker Verona Charles. Last time around, it was boutique owner India Pike in Her Perfect Cowboy, and she certainly didn’t mind finding her true love in Liam Parrish. And with so many yummy cowboys in town, it would be a shame not to find the perfect woman for at least one of them.
So when Verona meets bull rider Logan Bradshaw, she immediately knows he’d be perfect for one of India’s best friends, Skyler Harrington. Only one problem—Skyler, who owns the Wildflower Inn and likes things just so, can’t imagine a worse match for herself. There’s a little too much of the rootless wanderlust that she’d grown up seeing in her father. But even though she knows Logan isn’t the guy for her, she can’t deny the incredible physical attraction between them. And as she gets to know him, she begins to wonder if he can change and become someone she could love and be loved by.
At first, Logan actually agrees with Skyler that he’s not a settling-down sort of guy. But when a night of passion leads to Skyler getting pregnant, he begins to wonder if it’s time to stop his wandering ways and be a responsible father. As he gets to know Skyler better, he realizes the baby isn’t the only reason he’s thinking Blue Falls just might be his new home.
Happy reading,
Trish

To my mom. Even though she was never able to read my books, she did love a good cowboy story. We watched many a Western together when I was a kid, and she still watched Bonanza, The Big Valley and Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman every day until her passing. I miss you, Mom, and I hope you’re watching lots of Westerns in Heaven. Maybe you’re even riding a horse of your own.

Chapter One
Skyler Harrington smoothed her new cream-colored pencil skirt as she took her seat at the corner table at La Cantina. She pointed at the enormous platter of nachos that sat on the table between her and her two best friends, India Pike and Elissa Mason. Elissa was in the midst of grabbing a nacho laden with beef, sour cream and gooey cheese.
“Glad to see you all waited for me,” Skyler said.
India nodded toward Elissa, who was now stuffing said nacho into her mouth. “She threatened to start gnawing on her arm if we didn’t get something to eat pronto.”
“What?” Elissa said around her food. “I was starving. You try unloading a truckload of shrubbery and see if you’re not hungry.”
She had a point. While each
