Surprise! You're married!  Oh, wait....you don't remember? Hmm...that could pose a problem...What A Texas Girl wants features Kathleen and Jackson, and an interesting predicament they've gotten themselves into. They knew each other from college, and now they are face to face after not seeing each other for years.Kathleen has dreams of taking over her ranch. She went on a vacation to Mexico, and woke up married! Okay, so there's a lot of stories with this kind of theme, but I can never get tired of them, especially if they are well written and funny, just as What A Texas Girl Wants is.  I can relate to Kathleen because of her dysfunctional family. Kathleen tries to make do what she's dealt with in terms of the cards of life, but there are so many things she'd never imagined.  Jackson being a part of her life, even if it's temporary to decide how they will proceed changes her view.Jackson, ahh, A mystery to us all. He's got a past he's not very willing to share, and he's built himself a business from the ground up. He's moving on and doesn't care to look back. His encounter with Kathleen sure makes him open his eyes to possibilities he didn't think he wanted or needed.I enjoyed this book!  The characters are fresh, Ms Knight's voice is exciting and engaging. I also love that the couple went to UTEP (University of Texas El Paso, my hometown!)I love how both Kathleen and Jackson had to grow to be better. They learned so much about themselves in the duration of this story and things wrapped up very nicely. Bravo, Kristina Knight, on a job well done with a sparkling debut. I want more, more more!
