Blake Kemp was a man who knew his own mind and was as stubborn as the day is long in Jacobsville, Texas. As the town's leading lawyer, he had a reputation to uphold, and he didn't want the tender ministrations of his assistant to get in his way - even if he desperately needed her, since those big boots of his did have a tendency to step on toes...
So, of course, the boss man blew up at pretty, gentle Violet, for having the nerve to, of all things, step on his toes, causing her to leave him in a cloud of Texas dust.
But being a smart as well as hardheaded man, Blake could soon see that without his guiding light, his life would be in darkness. Only one thing to do - hire her back and make sure that business didn't mess with matters of the heart... on or off the job!

OMG!! I just can't believe how boring this book was, I had to make myself finish it, and I'm a long time Diana Palmer fan, but for me her last books are the same thing, everything get repeat over and over again.
I just wanted to smack the hero and tell him to get a life!!!

You don't have to read the other Long Tall Texans book to enjoy this one.

A great quick read. Not my usually type (reason for the low rating) but still a good read.
