Something to Talk about

Widowed single mom Amanda Emory wants a fresh start--far away from Los Angeles and her troubling past. All she wants out of her new job is a secure income and a safe haven for her kids. But her matchmaking nine-year-old has other ideas....

Horse trainer Robbie Preston has never shied away from risks. And the sparks between Robbie and Amanda are definitely dangerous. Yet her past--and his reputation--stand between them. It will take some serious courting to change Amanda's mind, but Robbie is up for the challenge...even if it does give everyone something to talk about!
