“she was the luckiest woman on the planet”

The reviews were right about this one: it’s a good love story, maybe too short –but has a satisfying story.

Cashea Moss notices the tall silent cowboy who comes to the bar where she sings but pays more attention to his food and the sports on the screen than her melodic notes. Then, one night, an annoying man who doesn’t take “no” for an answer, one who gets aggressive with her, makes her cowboy come alive, but not in a friendly way; it is with deadly intent.

Draven Harvey’s protectiveness stirs desire, and Cashea is surprised when her cowboy returns her interest. She knows she gives in too eagerly, ready to jump in head first for anything Draven wants. What she doesn’t know is that Draven finds that he would worship the ground she walks on because she makes him feel more than he has felt in years, and he’s open to the possibility of love, a family of his own, and marriage.

Only, this novella does not end in a white picket fence, 2 yrs later epilogue, and kids on the way. It ends in a happy-for-now, after Draven and Cashea fall for each other and let their love come intensely and softly, surrounded by Cashea’s belief in Draven and his fierce protection of her.

It’s a short sweet novella and I’d love to see how these two end up if they appear as side characters later on in this series.
