Mending Hearts (Willow Creek, #3)

Melissa Myers came to the small town of Willow Creek with one goal in mind: train hard enough to win the Maxis Cycle Climb and start a charity in honor of her best friend, who died in a riding accident. She doesn't have time for distractions, much less romance, but she gets both in the form of Ethan Clarke, a man with some serious biking skills, disarming sweetness, and unexpected compassion. It doesn't hurt that he's easy on the eyes, either.

The last thing Evan expected when he met Melissa was to fall for her, but she intrigues him like no woman ever has. She has determination, passion, and a drive to succeed that thrills him. She also has a terrible sadness eating away at her, one that he may not be able to soothe. Should he tell her that he's falling for her when he knows she's only here for the race? Does her heart have room for anything other than sorrow?

Can he convince her of his love before it's too late?
