Bull Rush (The Quiet Horsemen #1)

by Maggie Rawdon

Flashes of the two of us are all I can see, like I’m on my deathbed, and I’m granted one last chance to remember all the best things I ever felt and tasted and saw… and they were all him.

the reason I could never love anyone more than I love him; he can always bring out my better angels, but he’s only too happy to help me set my demons loose when I need it.

“Mine.” His voice breaks through the night with a quiet declaration one last time before we both fall asleep so closely wrapped around each other that I’m not sure where I end and he begins.

“And last, but definitely not least, I want to thank the love of my life. I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for her. She’s my true north and the center of my universe, and the second chance she’s given me is the only thing that’s better than being out on that field again.” Hazel presses her hand to her heart, tears slowly rolling down her cheeks as she looks up at me. “So while we’re here tonight celebrating second chances, I figured we might be able to put one more on the list. That is if she says yes.” I reach into my pocket and pull out the new engagement ring I purchased for her. It’s a bigger, better version of the one I’d gotten her when we were in college, and I kneel down in front of her. “Ramsey!” Her jaw drops, and she shakes her head. I’ve managed to actually surprise her. “Yes. Of course, yes.”
