Publisher's summary

When Austin McCade's wife dies, a vital part of him dies, too. The sexy single dad devotes himself to his motherless daughter and his work on the Diamondback Ranch. For 12 years, he ignores life and women...until a new pretty schoolteacher moves to town.

From the moment Theresa Rogers arrives in Salt Fork, Texas, people warn her about the lonely widower. He's a hopeless case, a lost cause. But Theresa sees beneath the crusty exterior of the man to the deep emotions and his enduring loyalty. Can she pierce the impenetrable wall surrounding his broken heart? Will she be able to vanquish the ghost who keeps him from loving again?

Another great Anne Marie Novark book

Any additional comments?

I liked this book. Although I have to say Austin really pissed me off. Had I been Theresa I would have told him to get lost and go fly a kite for as many times that he insulted her and was a total jerk! But in the end it all work out for everybody. I just loved his daughter's meddling to try to get them together. It was quite cute. I'm ready to read the next book in the series.

Cute Story

If you could sum up A Match Made in Texas in three words, what would they be?

Very cute story

What did you like best about this story?

Old love reignited,

Would you be willing to try another one of Erin Mallon’s performances?

Wish I didn't have to listen to her again, but have to if I want to continue with series. She is very bad with the different voices. She is nasal, and whiney with the women and teenage voices. This is the second book I have listened to by her and she likes to make the women sound whiney and rather pathetic.
