Okay so doing a fluff piece on a football player wasn't up
there with political exposes but someone has to do them.
Nicole "Nikki" Scott's manager wanted the scoop on what
happened between jock Cal Braxton and his society fiancé
Cynthia. So far no one has been able to get the meat of the
story so Nikki aka the Barracuda was sent. After finding out
that Cal was hiding out at his brothers dude ranch Nikki's
first step was to make a reservation. Once there well doing
the article would be simple and spending some needed down
time at a spa would be just wonderful. However the place was
full as in no vacancies but she was able to book the one
remaining cabin. Only this cabin wasn't even close to having
the advertised luxury amenities of the Crystal Creek Dude
Ranch. It was a secluded rustic -- did I mention rustic --
cabin that had at one time been the family homestead. Talk
about starter homes. Well this one was missing electricity
and indoor plumbing so upon her arrival Nikki was beginning
to doubt if doing any kind of story about Cal was worth it.
Then again there was Cal and the chemistry between them was
instant and hot. So maybe this wouldn't be so difficult
after all and once the Barracuda did her thing she would
leave this place in the wake of dust -- literally. Oh did I
mention that the cabin was haunted by a woman who was
murdered there.
However the tables had turned in Cal's favor -- you see he
knew who Nikki was and what she was after. Not one to back
down from a challenge he was determined to let her get the
real flavor of living the old ways as she researched her
book. And since she seemed very willing and sexy as all out
he might be able to get in a little fun for himself before
she hightailed it off the ranch. But neither had banked how
stubborn and driven they both were and so the duel was on.
There could only be one man or woman standing at the end so
may the best "rancher" win and if in the interlude some mind
blowing sex -- well that's all part of the game -- isn't it?
Ah, time will tell.
Interesting tale of modern meets rustic which proves if
you've got the mettle you can do almost anything. Doesn't
mean you learn to love it but while enmeshed in the
experience why not enjoy yourself? The reader will enjoy
themselves sharing the exploits of city girl Nikki meets
Bessie the cow and the drunken rooster among others in this
book by Karen Kelley. Falling in love means facing the truth
about who you are and sometimes makes you question your
values. Watch Nikki & Cal and enjoy.
Reporter Nikki "The Barracuda" Scott will sink her teeth
into anything. So when her editor sends her to get the
lowdown on bad boy football star Cal Braxton, Nikki's game
to rough it on his family ranch. She just isn't prepared
for exactly how rough. Still, the nasty outhouse, noisy
animals, and resident ghost won't put Nikki
off...especially once she sets eyes (and hands, and mouth)
on her subject. If there’s a juicy story here, Nikki
intends to devour it...
So, the lady thinks she's gonna get the scoop on him?
Cal's had his fill of scheming females—hell, his conniving
ex-fiancee is the very reason he's hiding out. Then again,
if all journalists were as hot as Nikki, he might consider
being more open with the press. Too bad she won’t be
around for long. If the chores and "rustic" conditions
don’t frighten Nikki off, her haunted accommodations
surely will. Tough it turns out Nikki doesn't scare
easily. Now Cal's the one who’s scared—of falling hard...
