When she takes a business matter into her own hands by hiring on hotshot rodeo bullfighter Joe Cassidy, she expected to start a ruckus inside the family...but never expected her heart to end up on the line. Praise for Carolyn Brown: "The most difficult thing about reading a Brown book is putting it down." —Fresh Fiction "Carolyn Brown is a master storyteller who never fails to entertain." —Night Owl Reviews Praise for Kari Lynn Dell: "An extraordinarily gifted writer." —Karen Templeton, three-time RITA award-winning author "A standout in western romance." —Publishers Weekly
It's a battle of the sexes like never before in this delightfully funny, escapist cowboy romance from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Carolyn Brown! She's a self-made city girl... The last thing I expected out of my life was to be saddled with a watermelon farm deep in the Oklahoma countryside. I'm a city girl, through and through, and my stilettos are not meant for farming. The only solution is to sell the place before I'm stuck with a truckload of overripe watermelons, and I'm forced to set up a farm stand on the side of a dirt road. *Shudder.* But the minute I think I've got a way out, my drop-dead sexy new neighbor Rye O'Donnell shows up. Maybe there's time for a little cowboy love after all... He's a down-home rancher... Knowing my former neighbor Granny Lanier's property was going up for sale, I thought I might have a chance at my dream property. But then I met her granddaughter, Austin, and found myself knocked sideways by the sexy-as-hell, savvy businesswoman. Perhaps it's time to set aside my real estate ambitions and convince this gorgeous city slicker just how much fun a little fling on the farm can be. "A crazy fun read. Carolyn Brown's books give me that happy feeling...you know, that happy feeling that makes you want to sing."—Love Romance Passion "Fun, witty and easy to enjoy... you can't help but wish for your own piece of country life."—My Overstuffed Bookshelf "What an absolutely adorable story... This book will have you laughing so hard."—The Romance Studio "Peopled with quirky characters and full of sassy fun."—BookPage
