Recommendation
I fell in love with Mase Colt-Manning in Take A Chance. I love how protective he was of his sister, so I knew he’d make a fantastic book boyfriend. I was not wrong. His intense need to protect Reese, even before he knew her, was so sexy. He is sex personified. His dirty, dirty mouth mixed with his Texas-sized heart, it’s easy to swoon over this cowboy. I love the way this series is progressing. As the characters get older, they’re more mature (read: dirty) and there’s less of the silly drama. Except for Nan, who is still the bitch we love to hate.

Publisher synopsis
I had an urge to fix all her problems. Which was stupid. She was doing fine without me. But something about those big eyes…
Mase Colt-Manning has always preferred his humble life as a Texas rancher to his birthright as the son of a legendary rock star. In fact, he rarely visits his father’s rarefied world in Rosemary Beach, especially if it means bunking at his vile half-sister Nan’s house—until one visit leads to a chance encounter with a young, gorgeous house maid who awakens him with her off-key but spirited imitation of a country music star…
Reese Ellis finally has her freedom. After escaping a lifetime of abuse from her parents and classmates for an undiagnosed learning disorder, she seizes the opportunity to be a house maid to some of the richest families in Rosemary Beach. But her job is in jeopardy when she causes an accident at the home of her most important client, Nan Dillon. When a hot, half-naked stranger with a cowboy’s swagger comes to her rescue, she’s intrigued—then afraid once he shows his own interest. Reese has never met a trustworthy man in her life. Will Mase be any different?
