The Chances We Take (The Road and The Rodeo Book 2)

A slow burn, friends to lovers romance filled with romantic tension and yearning, swoony banter, and small town charm. One thing has always been clear to Isabelle Bennett: she wants to find true love. She’s always been a hopeless romantic, losing herself in the pages of books when men in the real world inevitably disappoint. But she still dreams of finding her soulmate, and after meeting Reid Lawson, she wonders if she finally has. Neither of them can deny the chemistry they feel. However, after a conversation gone wrong, they hide their feelings for each other, claiming there’s no way they could ever be more than friends. But when they work together as the best man and maid of honor in their best friends’ wedding, the sparks they’ve convinced themselves aren’t there continue to fly, their budding connection becoming evident to everyone except each other. Reid built his walls to be impenetrable, never concerning himself with finding love. He always focused on taking care of others, whether that was raising his siblings or prioritizing the happiness of his friends. But when Isa, the girl he never thought he could have, breaks her way through the fortress around his heart, he questions whether the one thing he’s never believed in could be possible with her. When the chance for true love is right in front of them, will they take it? Or will they continue to ignore their feelings, forcing the flame that burns between them to go out?
