Texas Born

Dr. Olivia Alvarado, town vet and sometime coroner of Port Serenity, Texas, is nobody's fool. So when Sheriff C. J. Baker charged into her life, the last thing Livy expected was a broken heart. She should've known better. Because he seemed absolutely perfect for her -- and nothing's ever perfect.

Finding out that C.J. was already married just about killed Olivia. But there's a lot she doesn't know about C.J.'s marriage -- like the fact that it was for Selena's protection. Now that Selena's safe and he's safely divorced, C.J. wants Olivia back.

When they're thrown together on a bizarre case, Livy can't avoid spending time with C.J. -- or falling for him all over again. But then Selena shows up in Port Serenity. So what's a girl to think?
