Clever Becky Lower - her new contemporary romance is not about young, nubile twenty-year-olds falling in love, it is a wonderful celebration of the mature, unique beauty and sensuality inherent in a woman in her 40's. Juliette St James has spent the last twenty-three years raising her son alone. Now, uncharacteristically, she heads out West on a spontaneous adventure. When her car breaks down on a deserted road in Nebraska, she knows this was a mistake and she should have stayed at home where life was dull but predictable.Cy Kelley (yes, short for Cyclone) is the sexy cowboy who believes he is living out a youthful fantasy when he sees the stunning brown eyed blonde, stuck on the side of the road. His libido goes into over-drive as she licks Cheet-O's off her fingers while deciding whether it's safer to brave an oncoming storm or climb onto the back of his horse.This is a bright and heart-warming read as Juliette literally lets her hair down in a metamorphosis from staid college professor to playful, sensual woman. It is a mystery how long she is able to resist the horse-riding, Harley revving, very hot Cy Kelley as he tries to convince Juliette she deserves some fun, specifically with him. Becky Lower has created a wonderful, sexy romance, in a town filled with quirky secondary characters and a red hot hero.
