Description
First Love Burns Hotter
Rainbow Valley, Texas, has always been a refuge for animals, and Shannon North, director of the local shelter, intends to keep it that way. But with donations drying up and more pets in need of a loving home than ever before, Shannon's beginning to fear she's not the savior the shelter needs. When a tall, dark, and handsome cowboy from her past comes to the rescue, she knows that accepting his help may come with a high price: her heart.
The Second Time Around
Bad boy Luke Dawson shook the dust from this little town off his boots years ago. He walked away from everything . . . except the memory of the one night of passion he shared with Shannon. Now, a few wins away from becoming the world bull-riding champion, Luke's headed for fame and fortune. But then a crisis calls him back to Rainbow Valley, and Luke is reunited with the good girl who stole-and broke-his heart. As their rekindled relationship deepens into desire, old secrets resurface, and Luke must choose between the future he's always dreamed of and the only woman he's ever loved.

        March 25, 2013
        Pet lovers will appreciate this smalltown contemporary, the first in a new series set in Rainbow Valley, Tex., home of an annual pet festival. Luke Dawson was the town’s teenage bad boy, now made good as a bull rider but forced to convalesce in his hated hometown after a knee injury. Shannon North, his estranged high school love, runs the local animal shelter with overachiever’s passion. Their past emotional damage is believable and offers plausible romantic conflict, resolved without ridiculous misunderstandings. Graves (Heartstrings and Diamond Rings) includes an array of secondary characters, including some whose future romances seem imminent. Though the climax is miraculous, it fits well with the upbeat tone, fueled by the town’s legend of the Rainbow Bridge, where deceased pets await their human friends. Agent: Stephanie Kip Rostan, Levine Greenberg Literary Agency.

        Starred review from April 15, 2013
        The son of an alcoholic, abusive father, Luke Dawson has earned himself the title of town bad boy. Now that his father has died, Luke has returned to Rainbow Valley, Texas, to settle what little of the estate is left. A fall through some rotten boards in the decrepit family home puts Luke's career as a champion bull rider in jeopardy and forces him to recuperate in the town he swore he'd never see again. Shannon North left Rainbow Valley to pursue a lucrative career in the big city. Although at the top of her game, she longs for a quieter, simpler life and returns to her hometown, taking over the low-paying position as director of the no-kill animal shelter. With no one willing to fill the shelter's vacant caretaker position, Shannon does the work of two people. Then Luke applies for the job, and the flame they've tried so hard to forget is rekindled. Graves, a nine-time finalist for the Romance Writers of America's RITA Award, writes captivating, emotion-filled stories that sparkle with delightfully humorous moments. This charming tale is the first in Graves' new Rainbow Valley series.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2013, American Library Association.)
