A Rodeo Man's Promise — Marin Thomas

Hot, Young Cowboy...
Winning dominated Riley Fitzgerald's mind ... until the day he met Maria Alvarez. Now, all the rodeo champ can think about is winning Maria's heart - a task that may be tougher than busting broncs.

Beautiful, Older Teacher
As a struggling teacher of at-risk teens in an impoverished, gang-infested neighborhood, Maria doesn't trust the affections of a rich, hot-shot cowboy, especially one who's ten years her junior. But she can't deny the attraction between them - and luckily, Riley's never been one to back down from a challenge.

Is She Out of Her Mind?
There's only one thing that's more important to Riley than earning another world title, and that's earning Maria's trust. He's got one chance to prove to Maria that he's all the man she'll ever need, and she's the only woman he'll ever want.
