Blurb:

Kate Kelly gave up everything to be a star. Her life was on the fast track as country music’s hot newcomer, but that meant leaving her hometown of McCree Montana and the boy she loved behind.

Dustin O’Brian didn’t think he’d ever see Kate again. After leaving him with a gaping hole in his heart, he figured being in the same room with her, much less the same state, would take a miracle.

When he finds Kate hiding out in the old Kelly house, he realizes something went wrong. Dustin wasn’t sure what those Hollywood folks had done to send her running, but he was beyond happy she’d sought him out for company…once he convinced her that he’d keep her being back in McCree secret.

Things were looking up, and he had high hopes that Kate would be his once more.

That is until Death comes knocking at her door.

And Dustin realizes that the future he wants with Kate is one they will have to fight for.

My Review:

This was a phenomenally brilliant, exceptionally realistic tale. I love how Isabella combines completely realistic moments with those just slightly out of the realm of the everyday to create something completely unique and utterly captivating. The author combines complex descriptions with a captivating storyline. Suspense plays against emotion to create a completely inescapable world.

The cast of characters in this novel were quite unique. They played against one another and supported one another. They had a very unique family like relationship, where everyone played up their own skills without overstepping someone else. I also appreciated the fact that although the cast of characters were primarily in the NA range, they were always supported by adults. It was a very nice change to the genre.

I loved this cowboy infused, real world story. It was a tale that kept me entertained and guessing.
