Firday Memes: McKettrick's Pride by Linda Lael Miller

 Happy Friday everybody!

Book Beginnings on Friday is hosted by Rose City ReaderThe Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Beginning:
The dog, fur soaked, matted and muddy, sat forlornly on the rain-slicked pavement, next to Echo Wells's custom-painted hot pink Volkswagen Bug. Echo, rushing from the truck-stop restaurant with the remains of her supper in a take-out box, in hopes of not getting too wet before she reached her car, stopped cold.
Friday 56:
While the girls ran ahead to join the festivities, Cora wended her way from her own distant parking spot to walk with Echo. From the other woman's expression, Echo gathered she'd half expected Indian Rock's newest arrival to bolt for town without saying howdy to anybody.

Since she'd been tempted to do exactly that, Echo blushed slightly and bit her lower lip.
This week I am spotlighting McKettrick's Pride by Linda Lael Miller which has been on my TBR Pile since February 2008. I used to read everything Linda Lael Miller wrote but haven't read any of her books for years. 

Here's the description from Amazon:
The only wide-open space Rance McKettrick wants to see in his future is his hometown in his rearview mirror. The down-to-earth ex-rancher is determined to make a fresh start with his two young daughters—and leave his heartbreaking loss and family's corporation far behind. He sure doesn't need Indian Rock's free-spirited new bookstore owner, Echo Wells, confusing his choices…and raising memories he'd rather forget. But her straightforward honesty and reluctance to trust is challenging everything Rance thought he knew about himself. And when their irresistible attraction puts their hearts on the line, Rance and Echo must come to grips with who they really are in order to find a once-in-a-lifetime happiness.
