Because it's a historic landmark, she is required to hire an architect specializing in restoration. She wants to rehab it and open a medical center. She is a physical therapist who recently bought a building. She wears cowboy clothes, spends time with her horse, drives a pick-up truck, drinks beer, and is in a dart throwing league.

Fortunately for her, Jack needs her as well, to portray to the world that he is a well-balanced, family man but oh she drives him crazy! This can never work! You can count on this author to deliver an HEA that is as sexy as you can tolerate without steam coming from your book or reading device. She dosesn't really like him but she needs him. Keely needs Jack's help with the renovation of the historical building and refit to become her new therapy and medical clinic. Keely, aka Cowgirl, is much more than the fun-loving, wild child of her teen years. Like many businessmen with tunnel vision focused on what they identify as success, he hasn't opened his eyes to see more than work since his partnership and engagement disintegrated a few years earlier. Jack, who Keely calls GQ for his buttoned up, always in a suit handsome self, is more than he reveals to his business partners. We find the Keely in this story is perhaps much different from our perception of her as a secondary character in previous stories. The author has created a large extended family with characters that are deep and interesting. I have enjoyed every story in this series and none more so than All Jacked Up, Book 8. This author is a master at creating enticing imagery with her words. Can they stop pretending long enough to see that they’ve stumbled on to the real deal? As the dust settles, Jack and Keely worry they’re not fooling anyone but themselves. The McKays remind Jack of the humble upbringing he left behind, and country girl Keely feels she doesn’t measure up to Jack’s big-city expectations. Their sizzling lust overtakes common sense and suddenly they’ve gone from butting heads to knocking boots, but outside the bedroom they’re as mismatched as ever. When the notoriously hot-bodied-but-hot-tempered Keely begs him for help, he proposes a crazy idea he’ll personally oversee her restoration-if she acts the part of his fiancée.

Jack is this close to securing a career-defining project, until he learns his bachelor status puts him out of contention. What she does need is a restoration specialist to help her open her physical therapy clinic-and that expert is none other than buttoned-down, uptight Jack Donohue-her brother’s best friend and a certified pain in her Wranglers. As the lone girl in the prolific McKay family, Keely McKay doesn’t need another man giving her orders. One hot-blooded cowgirl and one cool-headed businessman in a stripped-down, revved-up game of sexual truth or dare.
