After trying, unsuccessfully, to be an actress in Hollywood, Cammi Carlisle returns home to Amarillo, Texas with a secret. She’s extremely nervous to tell her tough-as-nails, cowboy father that she got married, found out her husband cheated on her, and then the day he’s killed in a car accident, finds out she’s pregnant. Adding to her troubles, she runs a red light on her way into town and gets in a car accident with a handsome cowboy.

Reid Alexander is furious when he gets out of his truck to see half of it destroyed. But his heart is changed forever when the dark haired woman who ran the red light emerges from her car, dizzy and greatly apologetic. Putting aside his frustration about his truck, he helps her to the diner across the street and, after making sure she gets home safely, decides she is someone he wants to see again.

Drawn to one another, Cammi and Reid know they love each other, but when a secret from both of their pasts is revealed, they wonder if their love can overcome.

Loree Lough has written another romance worth reading. The Texas cowboy charm of Reid is irresistible and Cammi’s situation is intriguing and engaging.
