    About this ebook

    Everything's supposed to be bigger and better in Texas, right? Sexy plus-size model Serena Morgan isn't convinced and can't wait to get out of the wild, untamed state.

    Local boy and country star Kale Winters has wanted Serena from the moment he looked into her eyes. Too bad she won't have a thing to do with him.

    Thanks to the soft heart and matchmaking skills of Serena's agent and his own swift thinking, Kale has one night to prove to Serena that there's more to this cowboy than ropin' and branding. But come morning, will Kale be able to convince Serena he's the real deal or will the stubborn model blame it on Texas?

    Allie Standifer

    I've been lucky enough to travel all over the world as a child. I experienced life through many different cultures and countries. No matter where I went stories would pop up in my mind. It took a while for me to figure out exactly what those tales were trying to tell me, but eventually I understood. Five years later I'm happily typing away to the tune of the voices in my head. I'm addicted to anything to do with mythology, regardless of culture. I can be bribed with good coffee or Diet Coke. I will bore strangers to tears with pictures and stories of my fabulous nephews and nieces. Nothing like kids to keep you humble and honest, especially when they consider the plumber to have a cooler and more glamorous career than their aunt, the writer.
