I read Shiloh Walker's Her Best Friend's Lover (ebook) towards the end of the 2007 Challenge and really, really loved it. But there was a lot of the H's past that related to a Nikki and Wade. I eventually found out that Nikki and Wade had their own story ~ No Longer Mine ~ that was no longer in print. Well, shoot! Then, at the beginning of this Challenge, I read Shi's latest release Always Yours and loved it as well... turns out that this book, too, is a subsequent story to No Longer Mine. Now I really had to find this very elusive book... thank heavens for eBay! So I found, and got the book, and it sat on my TBR shelves... until my reading slump of last week. Of course once I got into the book I was able to understand a little more about the connections to the two books that I had read previously... which I decided I had to read again in the proper order.
Nikki Kline and Wade Lightfoot's story spans several years, a LOT of heartbreak and extreme emotional turmoil... but holy moley it grabbed my heart and refused to let go. I read this book as close to straight through as I could; it was near to impossible to put down. It sure gave me a lot more of the background to both the following stories ~ which I will also review here... just 'cause. Excellent and extremely riveting story... there were times that I wanted to throttle Wade, but he redeemed himself. Neither Nikki nor Wade loved easily, and this is a stellar tale of love lost and found again, of second chances, of love too powerful to turn your back on.

Just looking for a good time...
Waiting tables in a bar full of no-good cowboys isn't Lacy Mason's idea of fun. But between her daughter's illness, endless doctor bills, and her college tuition, she needs the money.
What dhe could really use is a night of no-holds-barred passion and no-strings-attached sex. Too bad she has sworn off cowboys for life...
