BOOK SUMMARY
The
only thing hotter than a cowboy...
Math teacher Lyndsay De Luca never surprised
anyone-least of all herself-until this summer. First, she secretly published
her debut romance novel. Then she started dating Will Sweet, the cowboy of her
dreams. And now Lyndsay’s scrambling to hide the juiciest tidbit of all: that
the hazel-eyed hero of her steamy fiction is the same guy whose kisses have
become her mind-blowing reality.
Is
a cowboy in love.
Ever since Will’s high school sweetheart
died in a tragic accident, he hasn’t been able to commit to a long-term
relationship. Lyndsay is the first woman in years who’s been able to catch-and
keep-his attention. She’s fascinated by his work at Sweetheart Ranch, and a
glance from her gorgeous brown eyes sends Will’s thoughts wandering. Will she
be the one to finally break down the walls around his guarded heart?

EXCERPT
Lyndsay De Luca stood near the picture window in her living
room, staring down at the paperback book in her hands, her eyes stinging with
tears of joy. The sun glimmered across the cover, a picture of a distant ranch
and mountains with a lone cowboy riding his horse in the distance. She let her
trembling fingers trace the title, A Cowboy in Montana, and
then her own name up above, embossed, with letters as large as the title. This
was her book, a book that would be on store shelves across the
country in just a month. Soon, readers would be swept away into a story she’d
created. She could make them laugh and maybe cry, and escape into a world of happily-ever-afters...
She’d also finally have to tell her friends and family about
the secret she’d been keeping. Her day job as a middle school math teacher was
very public, and she’d always liked having her writing as something private she
did for herself. If her family had known, they’d have constantly asked when she
was going to start submitting her work, or if she’d heard back from an editor.
She had enough pressure at school and hadn’t wanted any more, interested and
supportive though her family might be.
There was another reason she was leery about her revelation,
and that reason was now playing catch on Mabel Street, outside her window, with
her fourteen-year-old nephew, Ethan.
Will Sweet.
She heard a sharp rapping, and, startled, she glanced up to
see him in the center of her picture window as if he’d been framed there,
sunlight burnishing his hair. She felt her breath catch and her mouth go
dry.
Grinning at her, his eyes narrowed from the sun, Will spoke
through the window with a muffled voice. “You still coming with us to the
game?”
She nodded and called, “I’ll grab my purse and meet you out
front.”
After pulling on a sweater and sticking a Windbreaker in her
purse, she stepped through the door and paused to watch Will throw the ball
back to Ethan. If Will caught her staring, he wouldn’t think much of it. He was
used to being the center of attention every time he entered a room, with his
easygoing charm and killer good looks. He had sandy blond hair that lightened
in the sun, and since he made his living as a cowboy on the Sweetheart Ranch,
owned by his family, he was outdoors all the time, that tall, lean body honed
and chiseled from years of outdoor work. His eyes were a changeable hazel,
fringed with thick lashes and full of merriment. The cleft in his chin might as
well have winked at each woman he passed, and he had a model’s hollow cheeks.
Occasionally those cheeks bore the scruff of a day-old beard, as if he couldn’t
be bothered shaving that morning.
“Think fast!”
She flinched as Ethan jumped in front of her, pretending to
throw the ball.
“Aunt Lynds, you fall for that every time,” he said, shaking
his head.
After pulling her door shut, she punched her nephew
playfully in the upper arm, because she was no longer tall enough to wrap an
arm around his neck. Ethan was almost as tall as his dad, and his hair had
slowly been darkening over the years until now it was a light brown. He had the
De Luca brown eyes and his dad’s laid-back manner.
CAT'S REVIEW
Once again, Ms. Cane has written an endearing romance about a cowboy and a math teacher. Will Sweet - he's just that - sweet! Will is funny, smart and super sexy, as a cowboy should be! Lyndsay is a math teacher that secretly loves Will - it's even a secret to her!! :o) They have been friends forever and it's such an endearing road they travel to find their HEA. It's not always an easy path - he's fighting guilt over a tragedy from his past and Lyndsay has secrets of her own - besides her love of Will. Overall, this is simply a feel good story that makes the reader smile and believe in true love. The Valentine Valley series is a curl up on the couch type of series - They are wonderfully written with beautiful characters that wrap themselves around your heart. This is a series, however, it's not necessary to read the others to enjoy "Ever After at Sweetheart Ranch". (received copy for honest review)
