Publisher's summary

Robert Lawson - Bubba to his friends - is six feet, four inches of tall, dark, and handsome cowboy, with a panty-melting voice and a face made to launch a country music career. But when his family's ranch hands go down with the flu, Robert cancels his high-profile auditions in Austin, and returns home to Lonesome Point to help out. Fortune and fame are all well and good, but family and friends come first. Besides, he's ready to enjoy some off-the-clock time with his manager, a woman who has him dying to show her what a good man can do to a woman when he's given permission to be bad.

Marisol Medina has been looking for her golden ticket since she became a country music manager. A scandal with one of her clients nearly destroyed her, but now she's close to launching an artist who will make her career. Robert Lawson has it all - talent, charisma, and a naughty side that flicks all of Marisol's kinkier switches. But Robert is off limits. She refuses to mix business and pleasure, even if it will be hell resisting temptation while spending a week at the Lawson family ranch, doing her best to convince Robert to ditch the saddle and embrace his future as a star.

But as Marisol and Robert grow closer and the passion between them ignites, Marisol must decide if fear is stronger than love, or if a chance at forever is worth breaking all her rules.

Book 2 - Bubba

This is a sweet and steamy book about Robert "Bubba" Lawson. He is an up and coming country music star trying to make his mark in the business but his family comes first so when a want a be manager, Marison Medina thinks she has found her ticket to money and fame herself she grabs hold of Bubba and does what it takes to get him there. They didn't mean to fall in love along the way but after being together the strong attraction turns to more than just lust.

David Ledoux narrated this book and was pretty good. I enjoyed his voice for Bubba but not so much for the other characters.

Review: Lonesome Point, Texas 2: Saddles and Sin

Saddles and Sin by Jessie Evans is the second book in her Lonesome Point, Texas series.

This story is about Bubba (Robert Lawson) and Marisol Medina. We initially met Bubba in the first book, Leather and Lace as Mia's close friend and partner in crime. We learned then that he sang and had a chance at a recording contract.

Marisol is Bubba's manager and is dead set on making him successful and famous and getting him signed into a great recording deal. His success equals her success and that's what she has been working so hard for. The only hiccup in this plan is the attraction they have towards each other. Bubba's resistance is due to his gentleman-like manners, Marisol's is because she is both gun-shy and afraid of messing up the working relationship they have.

When opportunity presents itself, Bubba lands a kiss on Marisol that surpasses all kisses, ever. She plays it off as inconsequential but is only lying to him and to herself.

When Bubba gets the phone call from home that he's needed on the ranch as a flu-bug has temporarily wiped out most able bodied males in his family, he takes Marisol with him back to Lonesome Point so they can continue to "work" on building his career and finishing some songs they were working on together. What happens in Lonesome Point, however, will change both their lives irrevocably.

Another beautiful romance with just enough heat to start the panties sizzlin'. I am excited to read the next book, Diamonds and Dust. Enjoy!

The audiobook... Narrated by David Ledoux, he manages to embody some of the aww shucks persona of Bubba without making him sound like a dumb-hick and also gets that alpha male streak Bubba has down-pat. A pleasure for the ears, I enjoyed the audio version immensely. listening to the description of Bubba and Marisol's karaoke scene gave me goosebumps in the best way!

Southern charm

I’m not always a fan of country/cowboy type romances but there was some about big and strong Robert (aka Bubba) losing his heart to Marisol. Even though they both think they should keep their relationship professional it’s hard to fight the chemistry between them.
The only thing that could have made this book a little bit better (in my opinion) would have been if there was duel narration but overall I think that David Ledoux did an incredible job.

Sweet!

This is a sweet and enjoyable story about an up and coming country music star Robert “Bubba” Lawson and his manager Marisol Medina. Their professional relationship takes a turn when they realize they have feelings for each other that are anything but professional. Their chemistry is through the roof and they have so much in common. Things definitely heat up and get downright steamy between them. There are a couple of pretty big bumps in the road but they manage to get through with honesty. Love the story and the characters and the narration is really good too.

I want a bestie like Bubba

I love Bubba's story! Such a wonderfully sweet guy! Fell for him in Leather and Lace as Mia's best friend. Made me want a bestie like Bubba. *sigh* But, lucky Marisol got him. Wonderful story. I liked the ending. I am looking forward to visiting Lonesome Point again with the next book.

Bubba Hits Bimbo

In book 1 of this series, Bubba was introduced as Mia's best friend, a man who appreciated and protected women.

Suddenly in book 2, Bubba slapped his female manager Marisol without remorse. In fact Bubba was very disappointed that he needed to keep their relationship professional, since he would have enjoyed the opportunity to beat her on a regular basis.

Even more disturbing was Marisol's meek acceptance of sexual violence as normal rather than criminal. She rationalized that men needed to physically dominant women in the bedroom, since women were threatening men in the workplace.

To the author: sexual violence is not kinky, erotic or romantic. Men do not hurt women they like and respect. Domestic abuse is not proof of true love.
