Sleigh Bells and Second Chances (Love in Mission City #3)

Ryan

The moment I landed in that war zone, I knew Id made a big mistake. I wasnt a soldier, and my good intentions almost got me killed. Being wounded and shipped back home to Canada was both a blessing and a curse. I’m safe now, but I can’t stop thinking of the men I left behind. My therapist claims Healing Horses Ranch will help heal my wounds— physical and mental—but Im not sure how much tranquility and wholesome fresh air I can take. Until I meet a beautiful, shy man who makes moving forward seem almost possible. Can I let go of the past and reach for a future with Simeon?

Ive made peace with being different from the folks around me. I love my home in Mission City, and if anyone needs something fixed, I’m the guy they call. When the owner of the therapy ranch hires me for a big project, I’m excited to get started. I always work alone, but one of the patients keeps hanging around, and I cant bear to send him on his way. I can see how much hes hurting. If helping me helps him, thats a win for us both. As we share the work, something about that wounded man draws me deeper and deeper in. Im no therapist, and I have my own issues, so am I a fool to be thinking about a future with a guy whos likely to leave once hes healed?
