Lullaby in Lone Creek by Mary Manners

In eight seconds Dalton Merrill's professional bull riding days—and the fame he enjoyed—ended. When the adrenaline-junkie returns to Lone Creek Ranch to heal, he discovers a single reckless romp with sweet Emilee Walker has left her with more than a little heartbreak. She’s carrying his child. The last thing he wants is to be tied down with a wife and a son. 

Emilee Walker trusted Dalton with her heart, and he left her for the rodeo. She wanted Dalton to return home, but not like this. Now she wonders if it's responsibility or love that holds him on Lone Creek. This time she vows to show him what family ties and faith in God really means.

My Review

What a wonderful series by Mary Manners. This is book 2 in the Lone Creek series! Lullaby in Lone Creek is such a sweet story. I loved the characters and Emilee and Dalton. Professional bull rider Dalton put his own desires above anything and anyone. Even  leaving his girl alone to have his child. How can Emilee ever trust him again? He left her once and she is afraid he will do it again. Can she open her heart to Dalton again? Great novella.
