in the heart of Texas is a small town where secret wishes have a
funny way of coming true . . .
With
a nine-year-old daughter, an overdue light bill, and a job slinging
burgers while zooming around on roller skates, Cassidy Roby is not
living the glamorous life. But Cuervo, Texas, has its charms: quiet
streets, loving family, and the down-home familiarity of knowing
which of your neighbors are mean as snakes. With Cassidy’s
reputation, she knows what will happen if she steps a foot out of
line. But how can she help it now that Mason Hannigan’s back in
town?

As
Cuervo’s high school quarterback ten years ago, Mason was all
rock-hard abs and yes-ma’am manners. Now that he’s living the
glitz and glory of the NFL, he’s all that plus a couple million
bucks. The desire blazing between them is too hot to hide. Cassidy
has some experience getting her heart broken by the hometown hero—and
having the whole world watch her try to pick up the pieces. Will
adding fame, fortune, and paparazzi be a playbook for disaster—or
lead to the biggest adventure of her life?

Excerpt #2
“Damn,” Mason’s friend and linebacker, Jasper, said after a low whistle. “That is one sweet little hometown honey.”
In the back seat, Mason’s two other teammates leaned forward expectantly.
“Where?” Temple demanded to know.
“Sit your bitch ass down,” Brian, his seatmate, told him. “I can’t see.”
“I told you Cuervo was the bomb,” Mason said, but then as the honey drew closer—on skates, no less— his hands tightened around the steering wheel.
It was Cassidy Roby.
Mason blinked. Refocused. He’d forgotten how much his type she was. He’d forgotten … well, a lot of things. She hadn’t changed one bit. Same glossy ponytail, all sun-streaked and blonde. Same perfect little body. The skates made her taller, but he knew that without them, she barely reached his shoulder. Why her type had always appealed to him, he didn’t exactly know, but petite and wholesome did a whole different number on him than the women he found himself dating these days—beautiful, yes. Models, yes. But they were all cheekbones and sharp shoulders. Give them a salad and they’d push away the croutons. Yet these were the women who traveled in his circle now. After a while, it seemed they all wore the same hungry look, and it wasn’t a look that warmed a man’s blood.

her days writing in a nearby abandoned 12th century church.

The
two things she is most proud of are her ability to cook pasta alla
genovese without burning down the kitchen and swearing volubly
in Italian with all the appropriate hand gestures.
