Book Description:

Daisy Lee Monroe thought she'd brushed the dust of Lovett, Texas, off her high-heeled shoes years ago, but she's come back home only to find that little has changed. Her sister is still crazy, and her mom still has pink plastic flamingos in her front yard. And Jackson Lamott Parrish, the bad boy she'd left behind, is still so sexy it hurts. She'd like nothing better than to avoid this particular man, but she can't. Daisy has something to say to Jackson, and she's not going anywhere until he listens.

Jackson learned his lesson about Daisy the hard way, and now the only word he's interested in hearing from Daisy's red lips is good-bye. But she's popping up everywhere, and he doesn't believe in coincidence. It seems the only way to keep her quiet is with his mouth, but kissing Daisy had once been his downfall. Is he strong enough to resist her now? Strong enough to watch her walk out of his life again? Is he strong enough to make her stay?

If the aim of a story is to make the reader feel, then I would have to consider this story a success. However, if success is measured in how well one likes the main characters, then no, this story didn't succeed with me.

I found the heroine to be unbearably selfish and unwilling to accept that she was a shit to her high school boyfriend. Every other character in the story touched me in a positive way. Even the old boyfriend grew as a person, but at the end of the story, IMO, Daisy hasn't grown at all and is still getting her way on everything.

I normally really like Rachel Gibson's books, and I read this all the way to the end, hoping she would find a way to redeem the heroine in my eyes, but it just didn't happen. By then, I just wanted to see what she'd done cost her half as badly as it cost Jack. I guess if I can't have redemption, I'll take revenge.

Daisy Monroe has come back to Lovett Texas to talk to Jackson Parrish, the man she loved and left 15years ago...left with his best friend. Now she must talk with Jackson and mend the past, while maintaining a distance from the attraction that is still there after all those years. This a good example of Rachel Gibson, not as great as some of her others but still a very good read.

This book caught my eye because I live in Texas and read lots of books that take place here. It was pretty typical for a romance novel. The main male character owns an automotive restoration business, which also was of interest to me. It was a above average read.

Daisy is back in Lovett, Texas. Nothing much has changed her sister is still crazy, her Mother still has pink flamingos in the front yard and Jackson Lamott Parrish, the bad bou she'd left behind is still so sexy it hurts. Jackson learned about Daisy the hard was long time ago and now all he wants to hear from her ruby red lips is good-by but she keeps popping us everywhere. fast moving zippy story.

Good story, but no epilogue for happy ending. Steamy sex as usual for Rachel Gibson.

Rachel Gibson is one of my favorite authors. She writes fun, quick and romantic reads with lots of good sex thrown in. I have read everyone of her books and I keep them all. This was an extra copy I had so I thought I would share it. Enjoy!!
