Cynthia did it again!  I Love her books and this one is just as great! I loved the action and growing romance in this story!  I wanted to jump in and help her out!

Porchia Summers was born into a family who gave her everything except affection. She tried to get her parents attention by acting out.  Her parents sent her to Whispering Springs when she was still in school to hide that she had an arrest record. When Prochia finished school she stayed in Whispering Springs but was always looking over her shoulder. Then her old boyfriend who got her in trouble tracks her down. She wants to keep her past and present separate.  She needs time to come up with a plan so she places a bid at a bachelor auction. He is the one man who’ll get her out of town for a few days and help give her time.

Darren Montgomery is thrilled when Porchia wins him and a week of camping in a charity bachelor auction. He’s been flirting with her for years. She has never let it go any further than that. Darren’s not complaining, but he wonders what has changed and what is going on in Porchia’s pretty head.

They are going camping but even then Porchia can’t out run her past and doesn’t want anyone to know what is going on.  Darren is trying to win Porchia’s heart and does not get her hot and cold responses to him.  More problems arise for Porchia as time goes on.  Can Porchia lean on Darren?  Can Darren win Porchia’s heart?

The Trouble with Texas Cowboys (Burnt Boot, Texas #2) by Carolyn Brown 1/22/15

Carolyn Brown did it again!  We are again in Texas but this time in the middle of a feud between two families.  The Gallaghers and the Brennans are feuding and want the land between their ranches. That land The Fiddle Creek Ranch belongs to The Cleary women.  Jill is the niece that has come to work the ranch with her Aunt Gladys on the Ranch.  Aunt Gladys has hired Sawyer to help as the foreman of the ranch.  

When Jill and Sawyer meet the fireworks go off, but before they can even take in what is going on both of them have dates with The Gallaghers and the Brennans.  The Gallaghers and the Brennans want Sawyer so the Fiddle Creek Ranch may sell to them soon and they want Jill so they can have the land trough marriage. Problem is that Jill and Sawyer don’t want any of them and agree to have each other’s backs.

The more time Jill and Sawyer spend together the more the fireworks fly.  Can Jill keep the The Gallaghers and the Brennans men away from her?  Can Sawyer keep the The Gallaghers and the Brennans women away from him? Sawyer also wants to keep The Gallaghers and the Brennans men away from Jill.  Can Sawyer win Jill’s heart?
