The Beginning:

"Well dog," Tripp Galloway said, addressing his sidekick, a cross-eyed black Lab he'd bought as a pup out of the back of a beat-up pickup alongside a Seattle highway the year before, "We're almost home."

Page 56 or 20% on my Kindle:

"What's the story, Dad?" he demanded quietly. "And don't give me any of that John Wayne man-of-few-words bullshit either. Tell me what's wrong."

From The Marriage Pact (The Brides of Bliss County #1) by Linda Lael Miller. This is book one of a new series by Miller and it is a winner. I received an ARC from Goodreads. The book will be released May 27, 2014.

From Goodreads:

The women of Bliss County are ready to meet the men of their dreams! See how it all begins in this enthralling new series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller...

Ten years ago, Hadleigh Stevens was eighteen and this close to saying "I do," when Tripp Galloway interrupted her walk down the aisle. Now that she's recovered from her youthful mistake and Tripp's interference, Hadleigh and her single friends form a marriage pact. She doesn't expect Tripp to meddle with her new plan to find Mr. Right—or to discover that she's more attracted to him than ever!

Divorced and eager to reconnect with his cowboy roots, Tripp returns to Bliss County to save his ailing father's ranch. He's not looking for another wife—certainly not his best friend's little sister. But he's never been able to forget Hadleigh. And this time, if she ends up in his arms, he won't be walking away!
