Honky Tonk Cowboy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781648399725)

"Maggie Shayne is better than chocolate!" -New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Forster

Ethan "Bubba" Brand was found on the doorstep of the Texas Brand Ranch as a baby, then adopted and raised by the big, loving Brand family. But he's not a real Brand. He never has been.

His blood is poison, his birth father, a criminal who murdered his mother. He'll never feel worthy of the Brand name or the amazing kin who claim him. And he can't live in the town where his folk are local heroes, not without feeling like a fraud.

The life that's more comfortable for Ethan is on the road, playing in saloons and honky tonks, a country one-hit-wonder waiting for lightning to strike twice. He visits home a few times a year, and that's plenty.

Or it was plenty, until one day an angel arrived in his hometown and burrowed straight into his heart. His first glimpse of her shattered him.

But Lily is off limits. She's family-her brother Harrison just married his cousin Maria-and any kind of fling with her would tear the clan apart when it ended badly. As it obviously would. Lily's so far above him she must be dizzy.

Lily's, sees things differently. She's been in love with Ethan Brand since she first heard him sing. She'd bought his album and knew it by heart long before her brother married into his family, bringing her and her dad down to Ethan's hometown. Now that she knows him in real life, her feelings have become real too. They're meant for each other, it's as plain as day.

But she'll be damned if she'll chase a man who's so determined not to be caught.

When the death of his birth father brings trouble for Ethan, the family he doesn't think he deserves circle their wagons around him.

And the woman he thinks he can't have proves that there's no denying true love.
