Love at First Doubt

What's a grumpy tattoo artist, rockabilly musician, and all-around bad boy doing with Hollister's wholesome, curvy girl kindergarten teacher? Coloring WAY outside the lines...

Everyone tells me I should leave innocent, adorable Effie Jackson alone. But "shoulds" have never worked for me. So why start abiding by them now?

Something about the sunshiny, bubbly, plus-sized teacher grabs my heart and won't let go. And when we discover our voices meld together in perfect harmony, all bets are off. She's everything I want but frustratingly off-limits...

To make matters worse, she can't stand me. The pretty little mama wants nothing to do with bad-boy cowboy rockstars even though she's every rockabilly dream I've ever had tied up with a big bow and silky, seamed stockings.

Instead of making love, we fight like cats and dogs, heated words putting a wedge between us that feels mighty permanent. Until a late-night rendezvous at my tattoo parlor awakens my inner touch-her-and-die mode, and I swear to protect the lovely lady at all costs, whether she likes it or not.

If you like small-town, bad boy / good girl, opposites-attract, rockstar romances with an OTT possessive, tattooed cowboy mountain man and a sweet, innocent curvy girl, you'll devour Love at First Doubt, the next steamy installment in the Rough & Ready Country series.
