Horse whisperer Shane Stryker is done with passion. This time around, he's determined to meet someone who will be content with the quiet life of a rancher's wife. And the fiery, pint-size redhead who dazzles him at the local bar definitely does not fit the bill.
Small-town librarian Annabelle Weiss has always seen herself as more of a sweetheart than a siren, so she can't understand why Shane keeps pushing her away. Shane has formed the totally wrong impression of her but only he can help her with a special event for the next Fool's Gold festival. And maybe while he's at it, she can convince him to teach her a few things about kissing on hot summer nights, too—some lessons, a girl shouldn't learn from reading a book!

      Mallery (Summer Days) is an unabashed escapist, and her cozy California town of Fool’s Gold has never heard of a state budget crisis. It offers every possible service, including in-vitro fertilization, at prices all can afford; women occupy most positions of power; and the only bad guys come from out of town. Annabelle Weiss is a bombshell librarian who moved to Fool’s Gold to escape her marriage to a pompous jerk. Shane Stryker is a local cowboy made good who’s also divorced, but unlike Annabelle, he’s willing to try again—with someone nice, safe, and boring. Annabelle, who likes to dance on bars, doesn’t fit the bill. But he also can’t stop thinking about her, and when she shows up at his thoroughbred ranch (where an Arabian stallion improbably roams free) to ask for riding lessons, Shane goes along for the gallop. There’s a little fun, a little sizzle, and a whole lot of homespun charm. Agent: Annelise Robey, Jane Rotrosen Agency.

      Shane Stryker is a horse whisperer whose mother wants him to find a nice wife to live with him on his ranch. In fact, Mom knows the perfect woman. She wants her son to meet Annabelle Weiss, the town librarian. However, Shane is infatuated with a red-haired woman he saw dancing on the bar. He has no interest whatsoever in a bookish wallflower who is probably plain to boot. Little does he know that the woman of his dreams and the mousy librarian his mother is championing are one and the same. In the eighth book in her Californian Fools Gold series, Mallery detonates that old, dumb librarian stereotype. The wildly popular and prolific Mallery can always be counted on to tell an engaging story of modern western romance that's filled with multidimensional characters and great dialogue. This western tale is dedicated to librarians everywhere, and Annabelle, a gal of great panache, is a gift to the profession and to readers.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2012, American Library Association.)
