He’s a former rodeo star who gave up his career to run the family ranch.
She’s an aspiring chef with a food truck, a dream, and no interest in another man coming along to ruin her plans.
Troy Lucas walked away from his winning rodeo career to run the family ranch after the death of his grandfather. Now, being a rancher, a farrier, and even team roping just or fun can’t seem to keep him satisfied. He didn’t think he’d miss his glory days in the rodeo when he came back home – in fact, there’s nowhere else he’d rather be. Still, he can’t deny the hole inside that keeps reminding him he’s longing for something . . . more.
Chef Lark Gibson has only one thing on her mind: opening a restaurant in Portland. Until that day comes, Lark will take her food truck to as many events as possible and make sure her customers are always begging for more. The last thing she expected was to find herself distracted by a knight in dusty Wranglers, until a handsome cowboy comes to her rescue and catches her off-guard.
Will the approaching Christmas season lead this hungry cowboy and ambitious chef to realize that what they think they want isn’t what they really need? Find out in Savoring Christmas, a sweet romance full of humor, heart, and holiday fun.

Excerpt:
His grandmother raised an eyebrow and studied him a long moment. “Are you sure you don’t want to go back to the fair? I heard from four different people that you made a new friend today.”
Troy assumed the four tattletales included Doris, Truitt, and two of his grandmother’s cronies who happened to see him walking away from Lark’s food truck after he’d eaten lunch there.
Bunch of gossiping busybodies.
Surely, they had more interesting topics than his befriending Lark. It wasn’t like he didn’t have any friends, although Truitt seemed to have ten times as many. Troy had always been more about quality than quantity when it came to … well, everything.
“Is the girl as pretty as I heard? Does she really have bright red hair?”
Troy’s grip on the steering wheel tightened as he drove away from the rodeo grounds. “Who said she was pretty or anything about her hair color? And it’s not bright red—more of a warm, rich ginger color.”
His grandmother’s eyes widened. “You don’t say. Well, Doris mentioned you helped her up after the steer knocked her down and that she has a lot of red curly hair. Truitt said she was pretty, at least from what he could see when she was in the food truck. And Marlene might have mentioned she has freckles on her nose, pale green eyes, and a heaping helping of spunk.”
The low, growling noise that came from Troy’s throat made his grandmother laugh.
“From that response, I’ll assume everything I heard today is true,” she said, reaching over and patting his arm.
