Love at First Sight by Lori Wilde is $1.99. This is the first book in Wilde's Cupid, Texas, series. If you guessed that this is small town contemporary, you are totally right!
Also, reviews give the warning that if you're expecting cowboys due to the dude wearing chaps and a cowboy hat on the cover, think again. The hero is a SEAL. Doesn't that dude totally look like a SEAL? Of course he does. All SEALs go through rigorous swim training while wearing chaps.
From the author of the Twilight, Texas books comes the first in a dazzling new Cupid, Texas series. Lori Wilde welcomes us to Cupid, where every wish for love comes true…
Natalie McCleary couldn't believe her eyes-a lean-muscled, darkly tanned, nearly-naked man stood in her path…and then it hit her: love. Everyone always told her it'd hit like a thunderbolt, and she never believed them. But now she knew: practical, sensible Natalie was head over heels in love-with a stranger.
But ex-Navy SEAL Dade Vega wasn't about to be a stranger for long. He'd ridden into Cupid on his motorcycle, vowing to keep a promise he'd made to a military buddy. But a single glimpse at Natalie-soaking wet and unexpectedly tempting-changed his life forever.
But how can he offer her is love, when he can't even promise to stay in one place for longer than a week?

All Out of Love by Lori Wilde is book 2 in the Cupid, Texas, series, and is currently $1.99. There are a few reasons why you might want to buy this book. First, it's a contemporary romance with a cowboy/former professional athlete hero, a heroine who has been in love with the hero since she was a teen, and lots of catnip tropes all mixed up in there. Plus, it has a 3.9-star average on GR.
Best of all: the cover features a dude leaning against barbed wire (outch) with an outstanding case of accidental dong on his abs. All that for $2!
Football star Pierce Hollister has fame, fortune, and beautiful women who'll do anything for him . . . whether he asks them to or not. But when it all comes crashing down, Pierce finds himself back home, running the ranch in Cupid, Texas, wondering how it all went wrong.
But one thing is right: Lace Bettingfield. The former plain-Jane has turned into a luscious knockout — trouble is, she won't even give him the time of day no matter how many passes he makes.
Being in love with your older brother's best friend is awkward enough, and Pierce was the cause of Lace's most embarrassing high school moment ever when her secret letter to Cupid declaring her love landed right on the front page of the school newspaper! Pierce is still as stubborn, sexy, and arrogant as ever . . . but Lace is about to see that things aren't always as they seem . . . especially when it comes to love.

Somebody to Love by Lori Wilde is $1.99 – and this is book 3 in the Cupid, Texas, series. Be ye warned – the catnip is strong in this one, too: scholar/cowboy hero, who realizes he's in love with his best friend – and said best friend is not interested in settling down. Friends to lovers + cowboys and scholars + heroine who isn't into commitment anyone? This book has a 3.86-star average on GR, too. Have you read it?
Sexy cowboy-scholar Jericho Chance always knows exactly what he wants and how to get it. And after sauntering back home to Cupid, he’s shocked to discover that he wants Zoey McCleary. After years from home, he takes one new look at his bubbly best friend, with her lightning smarts and luscious body, and it hits him like a bolt: she’s his somebody to love and he’s not leaving town again without her.
Settling down always seemed like a time waster to Zoey, a man magnet with a trail of broken hearts behind her. She’s not meant to settle down—but how can she resist someone as persuasive as Jericho? There’s no way they can ignore the explosive chemistry seething between them . . . even if it means risking their friendship…
No cowboys, but today’s Kindle Daily Deals includes Sorcery and Cecelia, or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot for $1.99.
Are the Cupid, Texas books readable out of order? Somebody to Love sounds interesting, but I’d like to know if I need to read the others first.
I’m with Fallen Professor, Somebody to Love hits my catnip buttons, but I’m not sure I want to read the others.
Thanks for the heads up on Sorcery and Cecelia LostShadows! It’s $1.99 on the Nook too.
Somebody to Love hits my catnip buttons, too. I have not read any of Lori Wilde’s Cupid, Texas, books. The Cowboy Takes a Bride, from the Jubilee set, is a cute story and first in the series.
