She walked away from the past. He never wanted to go back. But sometimes, love rides in when you least expect it.When former RFDS doctor Emma Fairfax trades the chaos of emergency medicine for the controlled mayhem of the rodeo circuit, the last thing she expects is to play nursemaid to a wounded rodeo cowboy with a chip on his shoulder and a smile that could melt steel. She's sworn off high-stakes heroics-until she meets Mitchell Longworth, the reckless rodeo star who sees her more as a nuisance than a necessity.Mitchell Longworth has spent his life outrunning ghosts-until a rodeo injury sidelines him and sends him back to the one place he never wanted to be: home. Mitch has no time for meddling medics or anyone who threatens his career in the arena. Stuck on the family station with a woman who's too smart, too beautiful, and far too perceptive, he's forced to face the truth he's been dodging for years.Thrown together under the wide-open skies of the Australian outback, Emma and Mitch share sunlit rides, simmering tension, and secrets they'd rather leave buried. But as storms brew-both in the sky and in their hearts-they'll have to decide: is the life they've been chasing worth more than the one they might build together?What starts as mutual frustration quickly sparks into something neither of them expected. But between broken pasts, old fears, and a future that's anything but simple, love might be the riskiest ride of all.Heartwarming, humorous, and set against the rugged beauty of the Australian outback, The Doctor and the Cattleman is a tender slow-burn romance about healing old wounds, second chances, stubborn hearts, and the healing power of love. The latest book in USA Today bestselling author Chris Taylor's Fairfax Family series doesn't disappoint. Start reading today!
