Match Made in Texas (Deep in the Heart of Texas)

by Katie Lane

[Cocktails and Books]

Oh my goodness! This book was crazy! There were so many things going on from a fallen TV evangelist who drives a Cadillac and looks like Elvis Presley, to bed-and-breakfast, formerly a real “henhouse,” run by three middle-aged flamboyant women, and a Mexican drug lord who escaped from prison and has come back to exact his revenge. And if that wasn’t awesome enough, the book starts off with a car chase followed by two attempts of resisting arrest and pepper spraying the mirrored sunglasses clad sheriff!

There ain’t nothing sexier than a man with mirrored shades and I swooned every time the sheriff was wearing them! Dusty is a hard man and rightly so. His ex-wife is a total bitch and used her father’s money and influence to get full custody of their young daughter. Dusty already has enough problems without another spoiled, rich girl crashing into his life, literally.

Brianne is trying to escape her stalker ex-boyfriend while hiding her exploits from her family’s untarnished image of her. If they only knew. Trying to avoid a scandal from a revealing picture her ex posted on the internet, Brianne’s brothers think it’s best for her to lay low at the “henhouse” until they can get things straightened out. Brianne is tired of her brothers pushing her around and resents hiding but it’s not all bad if she gets to spend more time with the grumpy sheriff, who is slowly melting towards Brianne.

There isn’t anything I didn’t love about this book. This is my first read from Katie Lane and she definitely has a new fan in me! I’m looking forward to reading all the books in the series! This is an amazingly heart-felt story that had me laughing out loud too many times to count.
