Happy Tuesday everyone! And Happy Easter.
This week’s pick for Top-Shelf Tuesday is:
Lawless
by Nora Roberts
Romance, Western
Paperback
Published by Harlequin
I know that I have mentioned before that Nora Roberts was my first introduction into the Romance genre. I had always thought of Romance as those cheesy books with the half naked people on the front and the whole thing was just full sex. I was young then, 🤣. I even enjoy those books from time to time now.
It was Lawless specifically that I read.
When I was in High School, I stared my first job as a barista at a drive through coffee stand and found my co-worker’s copy of Lawless. You have lots of stop and go time for reading throughout the work day. I decided to give it a shot and became so enthralled with it. I have never forgotten the feeling that it gave me and the blossomed love of Romance novels.
It’s been too long since I last read it to be able to provide a good synopsis so I will just provide the blurb instead.
To Tame a Renegade Heart
The Arizona Territory was a dangerous place, but gunslinger Jake Redman was half-Apache and all man–more than a match for the wilderness. Sarah Conway was something else again. She was every inch an Eastern lady, yet she was determined to make Lone Bluff her home.
Jake was annoyed to find himself playing guardian angel to this tantalizing innocent–even more disgusted to find he liked it. Little did he suspect that beneath Sarah’s ladylike demeanor beat the heart of a frontier woman ant that her body yearned for his hard embrace, her heart for his words of love .. . .
