This is a sweet contemporary romance. The main characters get together fairly quickly...the tension comes when they have to decide whether they want to stay together when the down-and-out heroine gets a chance to return to the big city and a great job opportunity.
From the back jacket: No one is more surprised than Colleen Collins when she's offered a job writing fluffy magazine articles about rural Texas cooking. The big-city investigative reporter knows nothing about goats, prickly pears, or peafowl, and to make matters worse, she can't even cook. But thanks to a political scandal that cost Collie her job, her boyfriend, and now -- with this demeaning assignment -- her self-respect, she has no choice but to drag herself out of bed and head to the Texas hill country.
After only a few days in the charming little town of San Saline, Collie finds her affection gorwing for its bigherted residents. And despite her intentions to the contrary, she's finding it impossible to resist the infuriating True McKitrick, a local boy made good whose mere presence makes her feel utterly alive...and inexplicably at home. Soon, this unlikely romantic pairing is stirring up more than just desire. It's making Collie wonder about the lfie that once seem edperfect -- and the chance of starting over...with a man who's True.
