Paradise, Idaho, may not be the largest town, but for newly minted professor Zoe Santangelo, it's the first step on the path to her big break. After teaching in a small Idaho school, her next stop is the Ivy League, and no one is going to stand in her way. She'll do what it takes to move up, to protect her students from a creepy campus stalker--and to protect her heart from Cal Jackson, the hot, hunky cowboy who keeps coming to her rescue. After a career-ending injury, Cal has left professional football behind and come home to work the family farm. He's determined not to get mixed up with any more city girls who don't want to settle down with a country boy. But after he rescues sassy geologist Zoe from a snowy ditch, he can't stop thinking about her. Can Cal keep Zoe safe from whoever is targeting her--and can he show her that having ambition doesn't mean she has to sacrifice love?

I have spent today reading and now instead of sleep I am left here to describe what a wonderful new author I have found in Rosalind James. I am an avid reader of romantic suspense and found myself browsing for something different to read with my kindle unlimited subscription. Not only is the chemistry between Cal and Zoe undeniable the way that she describes this setting is unbelievable authentic that you can not help but want to keep reading.
The teacher, Zoe Santangelo, is smart and funny and somewhat driven, the kind of person who has let her career aspirations guide her whole life. Cal Jackson is the local-boy-made-good in the NFL, where more than just his shoulder got busted up, and he's now returned to the farmhouse his great-gran dad built and the town he grew up in. After a bit of a rocky start, Zoe and Cal start to click pretty nicely, and you get to enjoy their deepening relationship for a while, I don't want to go too much into the story line and ruin it for anyone so i will say this would be a great book to turn into a tv movie that you wont regret watching or reading.
This was way better than I expected. Rosalind James has gained herself a new loyal fan. I used to read only books from this genre, but drifted away for a while. This book has inspired me to drift back.
This is the story of a blooming love between Zoe and Cal. Zoe is a career driven woman. Cal is an ex-NFL player. Cal meets Zoe when her car goes off the road in the snow. When Zoe catches the attention of a stalker, Cal is determined to protect her.
In a lot of romantic suspense novels either the romance, or the suspense is lacking. This does not suffer from that. There is sex but it is not distasteful. I recommend this to fans of Carla Neggers, Diana Palmer, Linda Howard.
