About This Story
As a successful lawyer in Miami, going home to the tiny town of Broken Branch for her older sister's wedding was the last thing Alexis Beauchamp really wanted to do. After the devilishly handsome rodeo cowboy Kip Caldwell catches her attention at the rehearsal dinner, she decides the trip may have been worthwhile after all.
Kip has two reasons to be in town: the Professional Rodeo Riders Association finals and a wedding he doesn't really want to attend. Will Alexis, the stunning and sassy redhead he encounters, be enough for him to consider leaving the saddle bronc circuit and settle down?

Going Home
"Can I get everyone's attention for a minute? Brian and I have something to say."
Alexis Beauchamp took a sip of merlot to keep from rolling her eyes at her older sister's syrupy-sweet voice. Going home to Broken Branch for Jennifer's wedding had been bad enough, but being required to serve as a member of the bridal party was far worse.

Alexis pondered her sister's upcoming nuptials, gritting her teeth to keep from saying something incredibly sarcastic and loud in response to the bride's cheerful little speech.
Of course, they were as different as night and day to begin with. While Jen decided to marry Brian for oil money, spirited redhead Alexis forged her own path.
As the youngest managing partner at one of the largest law firms in Miami, she was able to live the way she dreamed of since she was a little girl. She had a fabulous condo overlooking the beach and a slew of pretty boyfriends—each of whom was completely interchangeable within her vibrant and carefully orchestrated world.
Now, Jennifer was getting married and would likely provide the Beauchamp's with their first grandchild. Even though Alexis hated kids and couldn't see herself as a mother, she
