Cowboy, Sing Me Home
Women, as a rule, love Luke Tanner. What’s not to love? He is charming, funny, good-looking, and he wears a deputy sheriff uniform. But Dusty Rhodes (yes, her real name; her parents were a hoot) had never been much of a rule follower. She is only in Aloma long enough to sing in Tanner’s Rain Fest – Lord knows the drought-stricken area needs something to scare up some moisture – and she isn’t going to stick around any longer than necessary to get the gig done.
But he is good looking. And she is kind of bored with her nomadic lifestyle. Not lonely, she insists to herself. Just bored. In need of a diversion. And if Luke Tanner is so determined to be that diversion, she doesn’t see what it could hurt to let him. As long as they played by her rules. As long as she calls the shots and doesn’t get emotionally involved.
Except his friends are so…nice. They treat her like she is actually a part of their group, not on the outside looking in. And Luke insists on not just working his way into her bed, but into her head and heart as well. And then he goes and gets himself shot – just how the heck does that fit into her don’t-get-emotionally-involved plan?

Delightful and refreshing from start to finish. Down home country toe-tapping fun. A group of folks in smalltown America extending a helpful hand to one and all. A touch of mystery. And, of course, romance. When a beautiful and talented singer traveling the country all alone and filled with loneliness comes to town to entertain during the Rain Festival (the town is desperate for rain), there's a very handsome and sexy Deputy Sheriff just waiting to make her stay in one place and that's with him.
A really feel good book to read.

It wasn't just good for a free book or good for a western romance, I generally thought it was a good book as a whole. The characters were charming and the story was well-written. The hangups/conflict in the story were credible and thankfully not trite. I've even recommended the story to my sister.
