One Snowbound Weekend

by Christy Lockhart

Dazed and injured, Angie Burton battled a blizzard to get home, only the thought of her husband's warm, strong arms keeping her going. But Angie wasn't prepared for the icy reception that awaited her--or the realization that she had no memory of walking out on the man she loved. Shane Masters had sworn off women forever. But now he was holed up with the last woman he'd vowed would ever melt his heart. Yet Angie remembered only their love, and Shane couldn't deny the way his ex-wife still set him afire with her smoldering glances and sizzling touch. In one snowbound weekend, could Shane learn to forgive his long-lost bride and reclaim the promise of forever?

About the author

Christine Pacheco is a born romantic! Some of her earliest childhood memories are of her native Northern England where she traipsed through castles and dreamed of marrying her very own prince. She emigrated to Colorado when she was eight, and was quite disappointed to discover that people had cars and shopping malls, rather than horses and dirt roads with wooden sidewalks. You see, her grandfather was a huge fan of Westerns, and she spent many a Sunday afternoon in front of the television watching John Wayne movies. She soon found, however, that the mountains provided huge inspiration and that the Western cowboy fantasy was just as rich as that of princes and princesses.

She writes romance and erotic novels as Christine Pacheco and Christy Lockhart. She also wrote in collaboration with Vickie Conan, under the pseudonym of Christa Conan. She is a past president of Colorado Romance Writers and a past Board Member of Romance Writers of America. She's the recipient of Colorado Romance Writers Writer of the Year Award, RWA's prestigious Emma Merritt Service Award, along with the Coeur Du Bois Love of Romance Award. In her writing, she strives to weave the elements of her dreams—honorable men, real life situations, and a compelling love story—into books her readers will enjoy over and over again. To Christine, her readers are what it's all about. If she can touch your heart, her heart sings!

Christine, along with her real life hero, Jared, their two children, two cats, and two dogs still call Colorado home. Their deck has a distant view of Pikes Peak, the very mountain that inspired the song "America the Beautiful." As a certified life coach, she lives her life by Eleanor Roosevelt's saying: "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams," and encourages you to reach for your dreams. She would love to hear from you: christy@christylockhart.com

[Sarah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Shane McMasters is surprised to see his ex-wife Angie stumbling towards his mountain cabin in the midst of a snowstorm. He is even more surprised to learn that she's been in a car accident which has erased her memories of the last five years since she left him. While she's overjoyed to see the husband she thinks she's still married to, Shane must decide whether to break the news to her or live what he remembers was a steamy past.

The whole remarriage thing bothered me for some reason. Spoilers, but I feel like the h should have fought her father's plans more and chosen to live in obscurity or something after being forced to leave the H initially. It just didn't sit well with me that she did as daddy forces her to do and marries the jerk, then allows herself to be controlled for 3 pointless years and hoping to have a family with the creep the whole time!

Average story. Nothing especial.
