Emma's Rodeo Cowboy - Burlap and Barbed Wire Shirley Penick

He's never even kissed the woman, but her son is clearly, without a doubt, his.

Zach McCoy has been on the rodeo circuit for six years and is making a damn fine living at it. When he comes home, for the first time, to be in his best friend's wedding he's got one helluva surprise waiting for him in the shape of a five-year old boy who is his spitting image.

Emma Kipling took matters into her own hands six years ago, before the man she was crazy about took off to join the rodeo. She didn't care one bit that he was two years older and she was still in high school, she wanted one night with him before he left to compete in a dangerous sport. When he didn't come back after she found herself pregnant she knew he had abandoned her and her son.

Now he's back for her brother's wedding, and by the look on his face, sparks are going to fly. She's ready and willing to go toe to toe with him and give him a piece of her mind.
