The Way to Texas

by Liz Talley

Published 1 January 2010
"Her stay in Oak Stand, Texas, is only temporary. After a series of setbacks, Dawn Taggert is giving herself one year to pull everything together so she can start over somewhere else. No putting down roots here. No romantic entanglements. No exceptions! Not even the very persuasive Tyson Hart can change that. A contractor looking for a fresh start himself, Tyson is the type of guy who promises forever--and means it. But Dawn refuses to let those whiskey-colored eyes, that smooth voice and the broadest set of shoulders this side of Houston weaken her resolve. Her mind is made up. Now, if she could only convince her heart"--Publisher description.

Little Texas

by Liz Talley

Published 1 January 2011
"Growing up in tiny Oak Stand gave Kate Newman all the Texas she'd ever want. Her bold personality is better suited to a city that never sleeps. So coming back to take care of unfinished business is like squeezing into last decade's jeans. A bad idea all around. Her only diversion is Rick Mendez. Enigmatic and irresistible, he's got a heart as wild as her own. They're so good together, Kate dares to peek beyond the end of her stay. But what are the odds for a guy with deep roots in the same soil a girl can't wash off fast enough? Seems more likely that when Kate heads for the bright lights, a little piece of her will be left behind."-- Publisher description.

A Taste of Texas

by Liz Talley

Published 1 January 2011

Returning to Oak Stand, Texas, doesn't mean things haven't panned out for Rayne Rose. In fact, she's a celebrity chef so successful she desperately needs her equilibrium! Fixing up her aunt's B and B is the perfect step back. But how's Rayne supposed to get perspective with Brent Hamilton–the best friend who broke her heart–next door?

Beauty in motion. That was Brent then–and now. The boy Rayne adored has become a good-time guy…and all wrong for this widowed single mom. Still, she can't resist the different version of Brent she glimpses beneath the surface. And that taste tempts her to dig a little deeper. Because maybe what they once had could still be.

A Touch of Scarlet

by Liz Talley

Published 1 January 2011

Adam Hinton is a by-the-book kind of guy. And as the new chief of police in Oak Stand, Texas, he has a few mottos.

Do the right thing. Obey the law. Don't get involved with bad girls–no matter how secretly irresistible they are. Those mottos are put to the test when too-tempting, too-sexy, too-everything Scarlet Rose speeds into town. Before the ink is dry on the ticket he gives her, he's hooked. Which means his efforts to create an ordinary, respectful life could be at risk.

Much to his surprise, it's the woman beneath Scarlet's sultry exterior who captivates him. And it's that woman he wants a future with. Because he's decided his white-picket-fence world definitely needs a touch of Scarlet!
