Publisher's Summary

Violet Jacobs is fearless. At least, that's what the cowboys she snatches from under the hooves of bucking horses think. Outside the ring, she's got plenty of worries rattling her bones: her young son, her mess of a love life, and lately, her family's struggling rodeo. When she takes business into her own hands and hires on a hotshot bullfighter, she expects to start a ruckus.

She never expected Joe Cassidy.

Joe came to Texas to escape a life spiraling out of control. He never planned on sticking around, and he certainly never expected to call this dry and dusty backwater home. But Violet is everything he never knew he was missing, and the deeper he's pulled into her beautiful mess of a family, the more he realizes this fierce rodeo girl may be offering him the one thing he never could find on his own. Contains mature themes.

country girl at heart so loved the storyline

1st book I've read for this author. I didn't get the depth of the heroes fear with commitment straight away which I'm not sure was or wasn't Intentional.
the days to say life was wonderfully descriptive as was the land and the contract in the cowboys when they are not 'on duty so to speak. it gives them a same ol same ol as every other man.
Ms Kari left out the hot and steamy writing and just let us warm up....it was nice but safe...I read authors with dark romances so I like a bit of down and dirty.
I'm going to try book 2 as I love county and rodeo.
Johanna I find I love her narration, she has all the Inflections, the voices and the drawl perfect.
never tire from her voice, works well with cowboys that tend to portray the laid back style.

Story a nice listen, narration terrible

The story has substance and lovely descriptive text. However, I cannot stand the narration. It seems stilted and the accent is very fake. Not pleasing to listen too. I might have to get paperbacks of the next two.
