Book Description

December 30, 2008
The first book in #1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown’s beloved
Texas! trilogy introduced readers worldwide to a captivating family struggling to go on without its patriarch—and to a man in pursuit of an elusive woman who may hold his future in her hands. Here is a saga told only as Brown can…an adored classic.

If middle children were born to rebel, Lucky Tyler was true to type. Charismatic and good-looking, his romantic conquests had earned him his name—while his temper had earned him a reputation as the family hothead. And one unfortunate night the sight of a woman being harassed got the best of him. The fight that ensued was predictable—the woman was not. Maybe Lucky was old-fashioned, but he’d expected at least a “Thank you” before she drove away. Then again, maybe chasing after a mysterious stranger was just the distraction he needed.

But the woman had a knack for disappearing—even after Lucky tracked her down. Even after they shared a night neither would forget. He was determined to find her yet again, but this time his search would be fueled by more than desire. For during the night a suspicious fire had broken out at Tyler Drilling—and Lucky was the prime suspect. Now the woman was more than his obsession, she was his alibi.

Cornered by her own deception, Devon Haines had tried her best to escape Lucky. Yet his bold pursuit and self-assurance disarmed her in a way she’d never experienced. But Lucky was about to ask for something she was terrified to give. Clearing his name would mean revealing a secret he’d regret ever knowing. Refusing could cost him everything. And doing either could mean losing him forever.

Pulsing with suspense and romance, here is the sweeping tale of a close-knit family and the daring, irreverent, irresistible heirs at its center.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Lucky Tyler attracted trouble--and women--like a lightning rod. But the night he stepped in to rescue a mysterious redhead in a seedy bar, he got more than he bargained for!

The lady excited him, challenged him, drove him wild with desire--then vanished without a trace. Lucky was desperate to find her, to brand her with his heat--and when the police were called in to investigate a suspicious fire at Tyler Drilling, his family business, he needed her for an alibi!

Torn between anguish and ecstasy, Devon Haines tried to refuse Lucky's pleas for help, but the reckless blue-eyed devil wouldn't take no as an answer from her... not when his touch could make her burn, could make her his.

Framed by old enemies, Lucky knew his only hope to clear himself rested on solving the crime, but Devon feared when his innocence was proved, she would lose the handsome cowboy who possessed her heart and soul Would the tragic vow that made their love forbidden cost her forever in his arms? --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars SEX, SUSPENSE, AND SCANDALOUS DOINGS, January 30, 2009
This review is from: Texas! Lucky (Audio CD)
Followers of Sandra Brown's titles (55+ NY Times bestsellers) know what to expect - hefty doses of sex, suspense and scandalous doings. They'll not be disappointed with Texas! Lucky and will be especially pleased with a voice performance by actress Coleen Marlo. This is a reading to be remembered - Marlo taught acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute for ten years and certainly knows her way around a script. Her television appearances include Murder She Wrote and China Beach, while on the stage she's been seen in A Streetcar Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. This is one audio book you may want to listen to twice and then share with friends!

The action in the story couldn't take place anywhere but the Lone Star State. Lucky Tyler is the quintessential fictional Texan - a good looking ladies man with a trigger temper. One night he's hanging out in a way less than 5-star bar when a gorgeous redhead begins to get unwanted attention from some locals. Lucky, of course, to the rescue!

Now, you'd think a lady pulled from the jaws of distress would show some gratitude but no - Devon Haines hopped into her car and took off. Lucky set out to find her and that he did, ending in one of Brown's famous night scenes. However despite this nocturnal pleasure Devon disappeared again. As it happened a fire broke out at Tyler Drilling at the same time Lucky and Devon were making the earth move. He needs an alibi and she needs to keep a secret.

Vintage Brown, memorable Marlo = entertainment and enjoyment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart stopping romance. Made me wish he was real !, November 7, 1999
By A Customer
What a to die for romance. The very best book of Sandra Brown I have read. I could really relate to all the people in this book. I am from Texas and was raised around people like the Tylers. It really hit close to home. I hope there will be more books of the Tyler family. I would love to know what happens after Texas! Sage. It could go on forever, i would not mind !
