Vaughn's Pride (California Cowboys #2)
Selena Laurence

T.J. Brisco is the girl next door. She and Vaughn grew up together, inseparable friends, then high school sweethearts. But when tragedy strikes, Vaughn retreats and this time is no different. When he refuses to see T.J. she gets assigned as his physical therapist, determined to help him recover from his devastating amputation. But Vaughn's not going to make it easy, and when his anger becomes to much for T.J.'s shattered heart, she decides that their story is over for good.
Now Vaughn is faced with the rest of his life--as an amputee, as a brother, as a man. He misses T.J. deeply, but he's not sure he can be the person she deserves. As T.J. moves on, however, Vaughn falls farther and farther behind. Can he learn to run fast enough to catch up to the only woman he'll ever love? Or will his pride stand in their way forever?
