The Texan’s Twins
Pamela Britton
Harlequin American Romance, Sep 2 2014, $5.50
ISBN: 9780373755356
In the middle of a field in Nowhere, Texas, Jet Baron goes to meet
J.C. Marks. However, instead of the male
project engineer just hired by Baron Energies, he sees a beautiful woman. He assumes the female is a stripper sent as a
joke. After that auspicious start,
arrogant Jet continues to step into sh*t including offering to meet no-nonsense
Jasmine Caroline Marks for breakfast; while she mocks his occupation of rodeo
performer and scorns his skirt chasing.
Attracted to the feisty engineer, Jet learns she is the single
mother of twin girls (Brooke and Gwen) whose father, her fiancé, Darren died
before she gave birth. As they work
together, Jet and J.C. fall in love, but her kids come first especially when Brooke
becomes ill; reminding the harried mother heartbreakingly of what happened to
Darren.
The fourth Texas Rodeo Barons romance (see The Texan's Little Secret by Barbara White Daille and The Texan’s Cowgirl Bride by
Trish Milburn) is a warm
family novel starring a seemingly care-free philanderer and a stressed-out
mom. The strong females (his sister
Lizzie - see The Texan's Baby by Donna
Alward, the engineer, and the twins) make this a winning contemporary;
while their male counterparts (Jet, his dad and Lizzie’s mate Chris) struggle
to live up to the high standards the women and girls set.
