It’s nothing I haven’t heard before, but the sting is still the same, which is why I take my Harley out to clear my head.I didn’t realize I was heading onto someone else’s land.I also didn’t realize the rumble of my engine would frighten the grazing cattle.And I definitely didn’t realize how much bulls hate motorcycles.Lucky for me, Austin Cassidy realized all those things and came to my rescue.With his big strong arms, and a smile I’d sell my Harley to see more of, my cowboy hero is the first man I’ve ever met who makes me feel small—he’s also the only person in this town who doesn’t treat me like an outsider.It’s not long before I’m wondering if my dad had it all wrong.
