Love with
a Perfect Cowboy
A Cupid
Texas Novel
By: Lori Wilde
Releasing May 27th, 2014
Cowboys always seem
to have the most spectacular butts, probably from all that hard riding in the
saddle. But Melody Spencer had long-ago wiped the dust of Cupid, Texas off her
cute shoes…and done her best to forget the chiseled jaw, strong arms and those
other assets of cowboy Luke Spencer. Their families might be part of a
long-time feud, but he was her very first love even if it turned out they never
wanted the same things.
But now Luke’s come striding back into her life, tempting her with the memories of long, lazy evenings and hot, passionate kisses. And he has an ulterior motive-as Mayor of Cupid, he knows Melody’s business savvy can help save their beloved hometown. His smooth-talking might get her to Texas, but that doesn’t mean he’ll get her in his bed. Still, people do say love can be more perfect the second time around…

Description: He
turned his head and the morning light illuminated his profile—straight nose, honed
cheekbones, chiseled jaw. His hair was a dusty shade of light brown, his eyes
fair. He was freshly clean-shaven, but had a heavy beard and that long before
five o’clock he’d be sporting a shadow of stubble. In that regard he looked a
bit like the actor Josh Holloway, who’d played Sawyer on the television show Lost.

Words to live by: “Nobody’s
perfect, darlin’, and that’s just the way it should be. Imagine how boring life
would be without any mistakes.”
Desperate for
respite from the rain and the recalcitrant suitcases, she stepped to the curb
and stuck a hand up for an available taxi. One after another they passed her
by. Finally, one did pull to a stop, but before she could muscle her suitcases
into the street, a man jumped into the back seat, commandeering the cab away
from her without so much as an apologetic glance in her direction. Life in the
city. Survival of the fittest. Normally, she sharpened her teeth on obstacles, a
fearless tigress taking on the world. Today, she felt like a newborn kitten
that’d been both defanged and declawed. By the time a cab acknowledged her
raised hand and pulled up, her hair was plastered to her face. The back tires
splashed in a puddle, soaking her slacks up to her knees. Perfect. That’s the
kind of morning she was having. The driver did not get out to help with the
luggage or pop the trunk, just jabbered at her in broken English and a scolding
tone as she struggled to get the drenched suitcases loaded into the seat beside
her. Exhausted, she sank back against the seat and pulled the door closed.
“Where you go?” demanded the cabbie who frowned sternly at her in the rear view
mirror. Where indeed? Overwhelmed, she gave him Bethany’s address and he took
off. Her friend would take her in, no questions asked, but that meant she’d
have to tell Bethany everything. She sat brooding, staring at the city gone
gray and dour in the rain. Yes, she knew this pity party wasn’t attractive, and
she would snap out of it before she ended up on Bethany’s doorstep. If she was
going to be an uninvited guest, she had to at least be pleasant to be around.
Melody would allow herself to pout for the length of the time it took the
cabbie to thread his way through the midtown traffic and over the bridge into
Brooklyn, but after that, she would be all smiles and a gung-ho attitude. She
would come out of this entire mess stronger and more confident than ever. Six
minutes into the sulk, her cell phone rang. Who was calling her instead of
texting? Everyone she knew texted. Well, except her mother. Please, don’t let
it be Mother. She pulled her phone from her purse, and took a peek at the
screen. Luke Nielson.
