About this eBook

Even in a quirky small town like Charmed, Texas, there’s always room for love to take you by surprise . . .

Gabi Graham might have hit the proverbial rock in rock-bottom. Hitting the single scene after ten years is hard enough. Finding out that her cheating ex-husband and his new barely-legal fiancée are expecting—that’s enough to drive Gabi over the edge and into a neighboring town’s divorce support group. It’s not really her thing to listen to anonymous strangers bash their exes, but at least there are cookies. And a sexy fellow newcomer who ignites her long-dormant libido. Spending a few lustful, post-meeting moments in Hot Guy’s truck can’t hurt. Unless, of course, Hot Guy turns out to be Thatcher Roman—her best friend’s brother and Gabi’s silent business partner.

Thatcher had no idea that the wildflower farm owner he’s been doing business with over email is the nameless woman who’s barreled into his life and his fantasies. He and Gabi have a new venture to run, a sister and best friend in the middle, and enough sparks between them to light up the entire town of Charmed. Given her past, it’s no wonder smart, gorgeous Gabi has trust issues. But maybe what they’ve found is more than just coincidence and chemistry. It might even be the beginning of one sweet, amazing second chance . . .

Ratings and reviews

Another great romance in Charmed, Texas! Gabi and Thatcher's story is fun, sexy, filled with romance and a little heartbreak. My heart broke for Gabi and her problem with infertility. Being a woman myself who has been through it, the way the author wrote about it was dead on. I felt Gabi's turmoil and the way Thatcher handled her fear and doubt in herself was AWESOME!! It also helped that he was HOT!! LOL!!

I absolutely adored this addition to the Charmed in Texas series. Gabi and Thatcher are strong, fun, complex characters and their story is sexy and emotional. When they first met at a divorce support group one town over from Charmed they had no idea they both had ties to this wonderful quaint small town or the quirky characters that reside there. When she finds out Gabi tries to resist for various reasons but the chemistry is too strong to stay away. Grab a copy and enjoy the journey these two take to find their HEA. I highly recommend it.

I had fun reading this book. Lanie’s world is crashing after her husband leaves her for a younger woman which shakes the foundation of her life. As she works to rebuild, she reaches out to a divorce support group where she encounters ‘hot guy.’ She believes she needs a just sex relationship especially since she is so afraid to trust and let someone back into her heart and world. Thatcher is captivated by this woman at the group. He is so very structured in his life and ‘Lois’ seems to have that spark that he needs. When their worlds collide in an unexpected way, will these two ‘strangers’ find a new path to love? Lanie and Thatcher were a joy to read and experience. Their meeting is funny and perfect for this duo. With their incredible family and friends around them, this is an amazing cast of characters that provided great depth to this tumultuous journey. Truly a perfect escape. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
