Home at Chestnut Creek

by Laura Drake

Welcome to Unforgiven, New Mexico, a small western town filled with heart, cowboys, and second chances!

Nevada Sweet's spent nearly her whole life running away from trouble. But when trouble turns to danger, Nevada heads to the tiny, remote town of Unforgiven, New Mexico. Working at the Chestnut Creek Cafe is the perfect cover. But when she meets Joseph "Fishing Eagle" King, Nevada discovers a whole new kind of trouble, the kind she most desperately needs.

Fish has dedicated his life to helping his people and carrying on the Navajo traditions he learned from his grandmother. After serving in the army, he's back home, and the last thing he wants to deal with is a battle for his job as a cook at the cafe. It's impossible to think these two could ever get along, much less fall in love. Still, Fish finds himself drawn to the witty and beautiful Nevada, but when Nevada's past finally catches up to her, will she be able to face the demons of her past in order to embrace the future?

Includes the bonus novel Wicked Cowboy Ways by Carolyn Brown!

Laura Drake is a new to me author. I recieved an advanced digital copy of Home at Chestnut Creek from Netgalley. When I realized it was the second book in a series, I went out and bought the first book. I'm so glad I did! After reading the first book, I immediately read the second.
I'm use to reading western romances set in Texas, so reading one set in New Mexico was different for me. I enjoyed the fact that a character was Navajo. This detail is not something I see in western romances, the diversity. I really enjoyed that, it made me feel good with just that alone in the book. I cant wait to read more from Laura Drake.
