He broke her heart. Now she's the only one who can heal his.

Coming home was never part of the plan.

Neither was falling for the only woman Hayes Alborn has never been able to forget.

A career-ending injury forces the professional bull rider back to Pigeon Lake and into the care of Bell, the town veterinarian, his best friend's little sister, and the girl he secretly dated all through high school.

While everyone else saw friendship, Hayes and Bell were planning a future together. Until he left town without the future they'd dreamed of or the explanation she deserved.

Now, sharing the same small town makes it impossible to ignore the sparks that never truly faded. But old wounds don't heal as easily as broken bones, and some secrets refuse to stay buried.

As Hayes fights for one last shot at the career he's always loved, he'll have to decide if chasing another buckle is worth risking the only woman who's ever felt like home.

Fell Too Early is a small-town romance featuring an injured bull rider, a veterinarian heroine, best friend's little sister, secret high school sweethearts, second chances, forced proximity, found family, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
