First rule of life on the run: never get attached. Nevada Sweet knows that better than anyone-it's just too dangerous to stay put. And until now, she's never wanted to. But she gets more than she bargained for when she walks into the Chestnut Creek Café looking for a job. Despite the protective wall she's built, her coworker Joseph has her imagining a life she isn't yet convinced she deserves...
While Unforgiven, New Mexico has always been home, Joseph "Fishing Eagle" King still feels like an outsider-no matter how much he tries to give back to his Navajo community. Beneath Nevada's biting wit, he glimpses a similar vulnerability. Against all odds, Joseph finds himself falling for her, and it's clear she's not as unaffected as she pretends. When her past finally catches up with her, she'll have to decide whether to keep running, or fight for what's hers.
MY REVIEW:
Home at Chestnut Creek / Wild Cowboy Ways by Laura DrakeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Nevada Sweet was a character in the first book of this series. Tough and on the run. She shows up at Carly's diner looking for a job. she wants to be a cook but Fish has that job. We know why Nevada is on the run and we root for her. she came from a rough life and needs to make a new life and let go of some of her anger and resentment. She starts showing a softer side of herself.
Fish is struggling with his heritage. He wants to meet a woman from the same heritage and settle down but something from his past keeps him at arms length with his people. But when he meets Nevada he gets close to her and fights his feelings for her because she is not from his heritage. But he starts teaching her.
I loved these 2 together and learning things from their past and Nevada finding herself in this town.
I received this from Forever for a review.
