Grin and Bear It (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798234024237)

Ellie Taylor has always gone wherever the wind blew...as long as it didn't carry her back to her hometown of Chapel, Texas.

After a sudden break up and a family emergency, Ellie has no choice but to return to the town she fled ten years ago. Time hasn't softened the ache of lingering failure or the expectations placed upon her by her mother. She's determined to keep her stay short, hiding behind her passion for photography on the ranch that shaped her childhood.

The last thing she wants to deal with is the bane of her entire adolescence: Sonny Barrett.

Her best friend's older brother.

Now a retired rodeo champion running Chapelwood Ranch, Sonny has too many secrets and a past he keeps buried beneath inked skin and broody silence. He's tasked with teaching Ellie to ride again for her summer job, but she's not the pesky girl he used to avoid at all costs. She's grown into a woman with sharp edges and an even sharper tongue. Every lesson blurs the line between irritation and something far more dangerous.

Sonny knows better than to want his little sister's firecracker of a best friend.

Ellie knows better than to fall for the arrogant cowboy who drives her insane.

Now, their biggest fight won't be against each other. It'll be for each other.
