Austin

Liz After one bad date after another, I've decided to put it all on hold and focus on the one thing that matters most to me: opening a bakery. But my meddling sister has another plan. We're at the rodeo when she confesses she entered my name into a raffle to win a date with rodeo pickup man Austin Wilder. And I win. Can't exactly turn down a local celebrity in front of a crowd, can I? There's a strong connection between us I can't deny, and I'm scared being with Austin means I'll lose focus. Austin When I get word that the rodeo in my hometown is struggling to fill seats, I can't just stand by and do nothing. I offer to raffle myself as a prize hoping it'll help draw in a crowd. Any dread I had about the end result dissipates when Liz is announced the winner. From the moment I first spotted her in the stands, I've been drawn to her. The connection between us is powerful and undeniable, but she's holding back. I don't want Liz for just one date—I want her forever. It's all or nothing.
