His Wranglers fit him like a glove. A really tight, leaving nothing to the imagination, glove. Codie wants nothing more than to shove that Wrangler-covered butt straight into the mud.
Ace Valentine has a smart mouth, a devil-may-care attitude, and those wicked eyes aimed directly at her.
She doesn’t know what to do with that kind of attention. Especially not from the sweet-talking man that has no problem charming every woman that enters his orbit—everyone but her, at least.
Ace isn’t sure why Codie Spears had her panties in a twist when it comes to him, but every snub and insult she hurls his way brings him closer and closer to falling for her.
He’s not sure what it is about the town’s bad girl that draws his attention, but every encounter they have leaves him wanting her until there’s nothing else left to do but have her.
The only thing is, she’s been convinced by everyone around her that she’s not good enough. Tell a person that she’s a piece of trash enough times, and eventually she’ll start to believe it. It’s going to take a lot of smooth-talking and gentling on his part to get her to see that she’s worth it. And once he has her where he wants her? Well, she’ll make a mighty fine rancher’s wife.

If his face was anything like his butt, he’d be breathtaking.

Not my first read by the author, she is one of my TOP FAVORITES! And this new Series starts off AH-MA-ZING. If you love Cowboy romance with a tiny, quirky and sassy heroine & a sexy as ever, strong, smart-mouthed cowboy who has a body to die for…this is for you! I am always excited about Lani’s books and this one was one of them!
You have Ace Valentine, a man who wen through so much as a child meaning the incident I can’t say because it will ruin the book, but let’s just say that things he saw and endured, is something that not everyone should in their life. But he grew up to be an amazing man who works hard and has his own. He is strong, works all day and even has side jobs to keep his ranch going with his brothers, until he is met with little Codie who isn’t little no more. Well physically she still is, by god this little one is barely five feet tall. He towers over her by over a foot. See, they both went to high school and have grown up in the same town in TX. Codie was a big trouble maker, hence her leaving but only to come back because of her family. When a 14K Bull is purchased and a trailer needed to be parked….they didn’t know it then but they were made for one another. The story is adorable, in a sense that there is a lot happening, little bit of danger, little bit of enemy to lovers, 2nd chance for sure and small town vibe. You get both POV’s and also some previous Series characters that tie all in.
