The town believes he's dead.
She's been his closest friend for twenty years.
Everyone in Sweet Water mourned billionaire rancher Howard Hanson years ago.
Everyone except Howard.
Living in secret, he has quietly kept a promise to his late best friend while building an unexpected friendship with Bonnie-the woman he loved long before she married someone else.
For two decades they've shared their hopes, heartaches, and faith online.
She has no idea who he really is.
Now the truth can no longer stay hidden.
When Howard finally returns to Sweet Water, Bonnie must decide whether the friendship they've built is strong enough to survive the secrets he's kept...and whether love deserves one more chance.
The Cowboy's Second Chance is a heartwarming Christian cowboy romance featuring hidden identity, later-in-life love, enduring friendship, unwavering faith, and the hope that it's never too late for happily ever after.
