Time is the silent, brooding presence in What a Texas Girl Wants.  It weighs on Jackson with his painful past and now his guarded and insecure future.For Kathleen, time means family, enduring stability, and a girl's romantic crush never expressed.  It also means blatant manipulation by her grandfather and a closing window of opportunity if she's going to fulfill her dreams and take over the family ranch.It's a three day romantic interlude, a hazy wedding on a Mexican beach, and secrets kept to protect Kathleen just long enough to ensure that her inheritance is secure.Time is what it takes to wash away their pain and insecurities so they can finally admit that what they really want is what they found waking up together on the sand with the surf rolling over their legs like a warm blanket.I enjoyed this lovely story.Note: I was provided an ARC for review as a professional courtesy.
