Going for Eight by Melissa Schroeder
 

John Rich said it best- ‘Save a horse, ride a cowboy’. Gerry Dillon had been a pro bull rider until an ornery bull named Stampede put him out of commission. During the six months of his recovery-the last month of it on the Freemont ranch, the only thing on Gerry’s mind was Charlie Freemont. But Charlie was avoiding him like the plague. Catching up with her at the VFW was his only chance to get her to listen to him. But Charlie is used to men coming on to her, wanting her-or rather her daddy’s ranch and she wants no part of him. Eight seconds is about all the time he’ll have to convince her that what he wants is her.
