While You're Away

Peyton Atwood and Ford Callahan were Stillwater, Oklahoma's picture-perfect couple. High school sweethearts who married right after graduation, their love seemed unshakable-or at least, it was... until it wasn't.

Peyton had dreams of becoming a journalist, traveling the world, and making a name for herself. Staying home and waiting for her husband wasn't part of her plan. After a year of marriage, she packed her bags and left.

Ford's dream was to make a name for himself on the professional rodeo circuit, with the goal of someday settling down on his family ranch with Peyton by his side. But when she left him while he was out on the circuit, he never expected it.

Now, six years later, Peyton's career is finally taking off. She's met a nice man, and maybe even sees a future with him. When a chance to cover the pro rodeo circuit for a month arises, Peyton jumps at it, never imagining she'd be back in the arena-let alone that Ford Callahan would be her biggest interview. And he's refusing to talk to her.

Ford's rise in the rodeo world has been meteoric. After a serious injury and a year of recovery, he's determined to reclaim his spot at the top. He hasn't dated anyone since Peyton left, but when he learns she's the journalist covering his story, his world is shaken.

Ford never moved on, but Peyton's life has moved at lightning speed without him. Will his attempts to win her back succeed? And will she land the interview of a lifetime?
