Book Review Sunset

 

Sunset (Crossroads Book 1)


"Sharon Sala is a consummate storyteller." —Debbie Macomber, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Crossroads, Texas, just might be the place to settle down and find the love of your dreams in this new small town romance series from Sharon Sala, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Blessings, Georgia series.

World-champion bull rider Sonny Bluejacket was bucked off a bull and critically injured. He died twice on the operating table and then survived. Now retired from the rodeo circuit, Sonny is living with his brother and family in Oklahoma when he inherits a horse ranch outside of a little town in West Texas called Crossroads. The first person he meets upon arrival is an intriguing waitress named Magnolia "Maggie" Brennen, who works in a café called The Yellow Rose. Their attraction is instant. But it isn't until much later that Sonny discovers Maggie's secret talent for painting, and a whole new opportunity for Maggie opens up as a result of Sonny's supportive urging.

Their relationship grows as Sonny wades through taking over the inherited ranch, horses, truck and property. He's finally finding his place within the surrounding community, only to be accosted by his no-good father who comes looking for a handout, or to destroy everything, including Maggie. But Sonny isn't about to let that happen.



Book Review 


Sharon Sala has written another thriller with heart. How she can make you hold your breath in fear, then warm your heart with beautiful romance is remarkable.
I loved this story of an injured, retired bull rider finding a new beginning in a small Texas town and the sassy, but vulnerable waitress who wins his heart.
