I actually give this 3.75 stars.Golden Opportunity is a cute, short book, more of chick lit type book. It's the first book I've read by Donna Marie Rogers.  I see tons of potential in Mrs. Rogers writing style, it draws me, so much I've put another of her books in my Mount TBR.What I love about Golden Opportunity:James is a cowboy, he's definitely an alpha, he's caring and affectionate, but doesn't trust women. Angela is a strong young woman, she's had a rough life and decided to work hard to make her life better than the one she had while growing up. Although a bit naive, Angela takes no crap off of James, there are some cute "awww" moments in the book.  I loved Meara, James' long time housekeeper/surrogate grandmother.  I love how James fell so hard for Angela and he is quite a hot lover.What didn't work as well for me:James and Angela fall in love in two days, which is too quick for me, I wanted to see more of how the relationship develops between James and Angela, more fights, more luvin'  (however it's a novella so I understand the need for quick).  James forgave his brother Reese way to easy and quickly.For a novella, the pacing is most likely acceptable, but some of you have seen me post before that I try to stay away from novellas because I always seem to be disappointed because I don't get to know the H/h like I want to and I don't get to witness that bond and relationship form that I need, so keep that in mind.All this being said, I will be watching for James' brother, Reese's story. And hopefully in his book we will get to see more of Angela and James.This is a great quick beach read or book you need to make you smile and give you a warm fuzzy feeling. AND it's a steal at only $.99 on amazon =)
