Heroes aren’t supposed to drive beat-up old trucks, and they don’t go around breaking a girl’s heart. But Garrett Grayson, Macy Joyce’s particular hero, does both of those things. Well, Macy doesn’t need a hero, just a little bit of help around her ranch. Someone to figure out who’s been cutting fences and throwing rocks through her windows. Garrett, who’s on leave from the Army, can certainly … handle the job. But can Macy handle the way her pulse quickens every time she sees him? Can she handle the way her six-year-old son is starting to look at this man who’s lived in her heart since high school? Can she handle it when Garrett leaves—which she knows he will?
As far as Garrett is concerned, the only good thing he’s ever done for Macy is leave her behind. He never did deserve a girl like her. But when Macy’s brother—and Garrett’s former best friend—calls and asks him to help protect her, Garrett agrees, knowing it’s only for a short time. Surely he can work on the ranch without getting involved with her. Ever since his misspent youth, Garrett’s been trying to redeem himself, to show everyone in the little town of Heartstring that he’s not the troublemaker he once was. Breaking Macy’s heart again will just prove he hasn’t changed a bit. So he’s going to stay away from her. He’ll just ignore the way his heart feels too big in his chest whenever he sees her, or how she’s grown into a gorgeous, sexy woman. He won’t let his feelings show. No matter what.
Problem is, he hadn’t counted on how tough it would be to walk away—again—from the only girl he’d ever loved.

** spoiler alert ** Garrett is determined to change the people from his little towns mind about who he is. Macy is struggling to raise her son and run her farm. Someone is causing problems. Will Macy find out who? Will Garrett figure out what his heart wants before it is to late?
Loved how despite being mad and the time difference, these two couldn’t help but feel the way they feel towards each other. I didn’t blame Macy for being hesitant to let her heart open to him again, but loved how she was with her son. I loved how Garrett did what he could to protect Macy and how he took that leap to get him where he wanted to be in the end. Good read!
This is quite the compelling read! It is fast pace, well written, consistent, and well developed. There is action, drama, suspense, humour, witty banter, and intrigue to look forward to in this story. The characters are likeable; their chemistry is off the charts hot! A recommended read!

It was lovely second chance romance.
They’ve been high school sweethearts and then he left join army.
She got involved with somebody else and have cute son, but his father is absent.
So ,when Garret get the phone call that Macy ranch is in trouble he is willing to help. Even for a couple of weeks ,because he will be leaving for service again.
Or maybe not?
They have only few weeks to find out if old feelings over rule everything and maybe they have a future together?

Second chance with no lies. This story is about Garrett, Macy and Trey. Garrett and Macy had a history when they were young, but due to lies build up he had no choice but to leave town and never see her again. She had a broken heart but moved on, now years later, he is back in their small town on a leave from his military life. His old BFF, who is also Macys brother called him up and asked if he would go over and take care of his sister, her son and his mother as she was having trouble with the ranch. He agreed but wasn’t received nicely.
When Macy finally accepts the help, more things keep happening, but the problem is that she is now having the same old feelings and her son Trey is looking up to Garrett as son would do to a man. Treys father is not in the picture, but the ending that they share is the best. The question remain through out the book what decision will Garrett make about his military career. It was the right decision for them all.

Garrett and Macy were in teenagers in love, until Garrett broke her heart. Years later when Macy is needing help protecting her ranch from vandals, Garrett is the one her brother calls in to help. Being so close together could make it hard for Macy to hide the love and attraction she still feels for Garrett. Seeing him bond with her son only makes her attraction to him that much stronger. Does Garrett still hold a torch for Macy? Add in a bit of mystery and you have a great second chance romance story you won’t want to put down.

Another wonderful story from Mary Sue Jackson. A second chance romance with a military man and a lady rancher. Former teenage loves given a second chance by happenstance.
Garrett is on leave from the army and has time on his hands as he waits to rejoin his men. His old friend Duncan calls him to ask him to help out his sister who is suddenly struggling with vandalism on the ranch Pride and Joyce. Macy is his old girlfriend, a relationship that ended badly making this request rather difficult to fulfill, as she hates his guts for breaking her heart. Garrett keeps working to keep Macy, her mother and son safe while he searches for the criminals making her life difficult. Good story
Protecting His Cowgirl by Mary Sue Jackson is wonderful second chance romance, with a little bit of danger and mystery thrown in for good measure. Garret and Macy’s story started many years before as young, love struck teenagers; but the years that have followed have moulded Garrett into the man he is today and also prevent him from divulging the reason he broke Macy’s heart.
Secrets from the past, long held resentment, the fear of abandonment, and protecting her precious son; all this and more make Macy wary of an attraction that has never died and the man who does and has always, owned her heart.
A great plot, likeable characters and a little boy who will capture every readers heart are all part of this intriguing story that starts off with a favour asked, and as the anticipation continues to mount, the final unexpected conclusion is revealed. I’m sure you will all enjoy this latest offering by the talented Ms Jackson.
