The men in Texas
are hard to resist . . . Seattle event planner Allison Lane is an expert at
delivering the perfect wedding—even if she might not exactly believe in the
whole "'til death do us part" thing. When her father decides to tie
the knot with a woman he barely knows, Allison heads to Sweet, Texas, to make
sure his new honey is the real deal. What she didn't expect to find at the
local honky-tonk was a sexy Southern man as bent on charming her pants off as
he is on blowing her "true love doesn't exist" theory all to hell.
And they always promise . . .
Veterinarian, former Marine, and Sweet's favorite playboy Jesse Wilder takes
one look at Allison and knows she's a handful of trouble he can't deny. But
even after a sizzling kiss and obvious mutual attraction, it seems Allison has
no such problem. When Jesse uncovers her sweet side, can he crush his playboy
image, melt her cynical heart, and change her mind about taking a trip down the
aisle?

“I thought you were
assigned to show me around,” she said. “So how about we get to it?”
He studied her for
a moment. Those incredible eyes moved down her body as if recording her assets
and deficits for his own personal gain.
“Ah,” he said as
though he’d discovered a box of treasures. “I get it now.”
“You get what,
exactly?” Her shoulders came up as she tried to make herself look big and bad
though she didn’t know why other than she didn’t like his tone.
“You know, it’s not
fair that you women look like that and only play for the other team.”
“Look like what?”
“A man’s walking
sexual fantasy.”
She looked like a
man’s walking sexual fantasy?
Sweet.
“Who says I play
for the other team?”
“Come on.” He shook
his head. “It’s obvious you don’t like men. Starting with the pathetic name you
gave your dog and ending with the way you ran out last night.”
“For your
information …” She stuck a finger in his chest. “I love men. Just not players
who are too pretty for their own good and assume every woman around will fall
at their cowboy boots.”
“See. There you go
again,” he said. “Men aren’t pretty.”
“Looked in the
mirror lately?”
His surprised
expression nearly made her laugh.
“And I noticed you
didn’t bother to deny the player part,” she added.
“I just have a fine
appreciation of women.”
“Uh-huh.” She
patted that amazing chest and seemed to have some trouble removing her hand
from the skin-warmed cotton. “You keep telling yourself that, bucko.”

makes her home on an Idaho farm. She’s experienced life in such diverse ways as
working in a Hollywood recording studio to chasing down wayward steers. Only
one thing has remained the same: her passion for writing stories about
relationships, the push and pull in
the search for love, and the security one finds in their own happily ever
after.
