High-powered career woman, Austin Lanier, has inherited her
grandmother's watermelon farm located in the one
place Austin's mother can't stand. The plan is to spend two
weeks cleaning out the farm house, square away any loose
ends, sell the farm, and then head back to Tulsa. Austin is
taken by surprise with the successful farm her grandmother
has built over the years and is intrigued with the process
of it all. It doesn't help matters much when Austin finds
out that the man she has been talking to every Thursday
since her grandmothers death is not a 70-year-old gray
haired old man that walks with a cane but rather a sexy,
rough around the edges cowboy named Rye O'Donnell. Knowing
her time is short, Austin has no intention of acting on
the instant attraction between her and Rye. Tulsa is
home, regardless of the responsibility of running a farm
even as Austin finds out exactly what her grandmother can do
with the watermelons she harvests.
Over the years, Granny Lanier has told Rye O'Donnell about
her granddaughter Austin. She showed him picture after
picture as Austin grew up but nothing compares to the
electrifying jolt to his heart as he meets Austin in person.
Rye made a promise years ago that he will never let another
woman break down the defenses around his heart but Austin is
quickly and unknowingly finding a way under his skin without
even trying. Usually, Rye is a pretty intelligent guy with
his own land and ideas to make his own ranch work but being
around Austin turns him into a bumbling idiot. The more
time he spends with her the more he is sure that she belongs
on her grandmother's farm. Unfortunately, Austin makes it
perfectly clear she doesn't plan on sticking around but if
Rye can get Austin involved with everything Granny then,
just maybe, Austin will at least think about giving him and
the farm a chance.
LOVE DRUNK COWBOY is the first book in Carolyn Brown's new
series, Spikes and Spurs, which is right on par with
everything else she writes. I was unable to put the book
down. The characters are endearing and easy to get attached
too. Great read, and a great beginning.
