An Angel for the Cowboy

Dusty Walker is a soft-spoken cowboy who never stopped dreaming about the first girl he ever loved. He never felt worthy of her and she hardly notices him, but could he be the one cowboy she can learn to trust? Jess Thompkins is a former rodeo queen who returned to her hometown to take care of her widowed father. Once, she had it all—she was popular and beautiful, and a brilliant career was hers for the taking. Now she's settled with her dog, her home, and her humble job as a mechanic, but she longs for something that's always been out of reach. All she wants is a quiet life and real love, but the only men who notice her see her looks and not her heart. Dusty Walker has a secret. A poet at heart, there are things he hasn't told his family. Bashful and more comfortable with his dogs than the limelight, women usually notice his older brothers instead of him. But when Austen Conrad, the rich new rancher in town discovers Dusty’s hidden talents, he asks for his help to woo beautiful Jess Thompkins. The trouble is, Dusty has been in love with Jess for years, and she barely knows he exists. Dusty agrees, because he'd do anything to see her happy—even if it means she'll fall in love with someone else. Jess begins to fall for the heartfelt words that keep finding their way to her, but she's torn between her hopes that she's finally found The One, and the nagging feeling that there's more to her mysterious poet than meets the eye. As Dusty struggles with his loyalty to Austen and his own feelings for Jess, he becomes determined to prove to her that he's the one cowboy who will always be there for her. But will Jess give him a chance, or will she always see him as the quiet cowboy she's always overlooked?
