Redeeming The Maverick by Christine Rimmer

The return of the prodigal rancher...

Hayes Parker swore he would never return to Tenacity, a town that had given him nothing but hard feelings and heartbreak. Now his father’s illness has beckoned him home to the family ranch, bringing him face to face with...her. Chrissy Hastings, the one who got away. Hayes has changed a lot since he was a hotheaded teen. But he can’t just pick up where they left off. First, he must prove he’s a man she can count on...for keeps.
