He’s a bad boy with a reputation, but it’s time to settle down. She’s a strong, sassy woman who doesn’t need a man. Ajax Jackson may have been a player in the past, but the horse trainer has grown up. He’s not looking for love, but when it kicks him in the gut, he can’t deny he’s ready for it—with the right woman. Scarlet Duke doesn’t need a man and she most definitely doesn’t need a playboy who just wants one thing. But when she gets a chance to see beyond Ajax’s bad reputation, she realizes maybe he’s more than what he seems. This is book number 4 in the Grove Valley Romance series.
