A Cowboy's Home

by Marteeka Karland

Wild Creek, Texas is home to one Abigail Dupree. This feisty librarian can take on anyone, anywhere, anytime, but Jayce has her completely tied in knots. He always has. Fortunately for Abigail, she's got him just as bumfuzzled. The one woman Jayce could never get out of his head has always seemed unattainable. Not because he couldn't get her, but because he was seriously afraid her mother would take his manhood if he tried. What happens when Jayce gets the blessing of Mama Dupree-and the perfect setting to act out his desires?

Okay. I must confess that I don’t particularly care for stories where cowboys are concerned. I always figure they’re fun to look at, and sure, they’re usually chivalrous guys, but authors generally portray them in such a cheesy light. I tend to like my heroes with a little more… sophistication, if you will. Maybe it’s because I grew up around mostly the “cowboy type” of guy – I’m not really sure. Anyway, that being said… this book, even if for a brief moment, changed my mind.

Jayce and Abigail have known each other for some time. Jayce has always wanted the intriguing librarian, but was always afraid that if he even tried, her mother would kill him. But when he gets the okay from her mother, holy hot cowboy. He goes after Abigail with pure desire.

The book is only just over 20 pages, but in those 20 pages – HOT. It’s a cute little steamy story (not completely void of a little cheesiness) that has given me a new fantasy – a man in wranglers and a cowboy hat :)
