BOOK SYNOPSIS: Melody Spencer had long-ago wiped the dust of Cupid, Texas, off her cute shoes…and done her best to forget the chiseled jaw and strong arms of cowboy Luke Nielson. 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…..
REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts Melody Spencer and Luke Nielson have always been attracted to one another ever since they were teenagers in Cupid, Texas. She was Luke’s first love and he never forgot those magical summer nights away from their families growing up. Then, Melody left the small town after high school for the bright lights of the big city in New York and never looked back. Fifteen years later, Melody is down on her luck after losing her job and boyfriend all on the same day. It doesn’t help that Luke Nielson showed up on her doorstep that very day with a proposition for her to come back to Cupid to help save their hometown. With no other options, Melody moves home temporary to help drum up tourism for Cupid until they receive relief from the destructive drought that is currently plaguing the town.
I’m so glad that this was Melody’s story and she was the last of the four cousins to find her happy ending. She was a smart, sassy, young woman who had planned to leave her small town roots behind until life had a change of plans bringing her back to Cupid. You could tell that Melody and Luke were attracted to one another and verbally sparred with each other every chance they got. They fought this attraction because their families have hated each other for something that happened almost ninety years ago and wouldn’t like that they were a couple. I loved Luke and Melody together as a couple and even though it took them awhile, I’m glad they found their way back to each other.
Ms. Wilde writes wonderful small town romances and the Cupid, Texas series is one of my favorites. I enjoyed Melody and Luke’s love story and loved that other characters from her previous books made an appearance so we could get an update on their lives. Love With A Perfect Cowboy is a charming and entertaining romance that shows that nothing can prevent two people who love each other from being together.
