She has spent the last seventeen years of her life guarding her heart, but when she meets Ciara O'brian, her walls begin to crumble. For the first time ever, August feels like she belongs. The only problem is Ciara's older brother, Ciann, an arrogant rugby star who seems determined to push her away. Ciann O'brian has his future mapped out- graduate, go pro, and leave the small town of Kilkenny, Ireland, behind. He can't afford distractions, especially not from his sister's sharp-tongued American friend. Determined to stay focused, Ciann makes August hate him, or at least he tries too. But no matter how hard he pushes, she keeps showing up, refusing to back down.

But after their last summer, everything falls apart and they stop speaking altogether.

After that, I vowed to friends and family that I'd never fall in love again and would only focus on raising my autistic son and working on my farm and horse ranch. That was until a beautiful blonde-haired, green-eyed beauty moved to my town--changing my life forever. Being stubborn, I did everything I could not to let my ticker control me and my thinking process--avoiding eye contact with Josie, conversations, and what my ticker, mind, and soul was telling me... But then I saw Josie daily at the diner she worked at and became jealous whenever Jack, the town's annoying wanna-be cowboy, tried striking a relationship up with her. I always felt my wife, Hailey, would return to Maverick and me, and we'd be a family again. But the more time I focused on the new girl in town, the more I wanted Hailey out of my life, and the more I wanted Josie in mine. Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I'd never give--my ticker. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/AKcoverdesignComplete
