Excerpt

I’m a bundle of nerves as I step out into the night air. It’s hard to not see him. He’s leaning against his truck. His back is to me and I almost don’t think he knows I am coming until he turns around to face me. My heart drops in my chest as I look into his eyes. We say nothing for a minute. We’re taking this time to rememorize each other, this time without the loud music and bright lights of the club. His hand reaches up and brushes against my cheek. I shudder trying to control myself. I missed his touch so much. I close my eyes praying this isn’t some dream but I open them and he’s here with his hand still on my cheek. “I miss you Hope.” He whispers. I won’t cry. I’m telling myself that. I’ll kick my own ass if I cry. I won’t be weak. “I miss you too,” I whisper almost inaudibly. We go back to not speaking. I can’t believe I’m standing outside in front of him. In front of the man who completely melts my heart. “Can you forgive me?” He leans in closing his mouth over mine and takes charge blowing my mind. I kiss him fiercely. “I can’t think of you being anyone else’s but mine Hope.” He says between kisses.

MaRanda's Opinion

Okay, I may be a tad biased when I’m reviewing this book. I am her beta reader. I have read this book twice now. And I can honestly say it gets better everytime.

Who doesn’t love a hot and wild cowboy? Wesley makes me want to go to Texas and see if cowboys do exist?
Hope has endured so many tragedies in her life, and when she finds her fiance screwing another woman in her bed, its her last straw.

Hope meets Wesley at a rodeo. Do they fall in love? Does she go back to her lying, cheating, no good for nothing ex? I dont know. You will have to read this wonderful novel to see.

Be on the look out for Ashley Johnson, she is going to do GREAT things.

I rate this book 4.5 book marks.
