I tell my baby bassets to make good life choices every day when I send them off to school. I am partly joking, but kinda mostly mean it. I found myself in a situation yesterday where I was seriously questioning my own life choices and thinking I may have just lost my mind. I am not sure how, but I hurt my foot and could barely walk on it. It was less painful if I walked on my toes, so I spent most of the day yesterday limping around like a pirate with a pegged leg. Silly looking as usual. Despite the pain I was in, I still found it completely necessary to play the Pokemon game on my phone. In order to hatch eggs, you actually have to walk around, and I had 7 eggs that needed to be hatched. Currently a special event is taking place in the game where it will cut the distance needed to hatch an egg in half. This is a very special event for people who hate walking. So what did I do? I limped for 5 miles around my neighborhood! FIVE MILES! I limped in pain for five miles to play a game with imaginary creatures. This morning I am feeling pretty rough, but I still have plans to do some walking. I still have a few eggs to hatch. Might get something really cool. I did not tell my baby bassets to make good life choices when I dropped them off at school today. It just didn’t feel right.

Trent Lockheart might be the new sheriff in town, but he can’t stop Jessie Jean from stealing his heart.

Sheriff Trent Lockheart knew he’d be in for a challenge when he moved from the big city and a large police force to the small Wyoming town of Cobble Creek. But at least he’d be able to stick to his bachelor ways without temptation. So he thought. Cobble Creek isn’t overflowing with young, single ladies, but Jessie Jean — the gorgeous woman who runs the Country Quilt
Inn — proves more tempting than any he’s known.

Jessie doesn’t care much for the new sheriff in town. After an explosive first meeting that almost ends in Jessie’s arrest, she’s even more determined to plan on dinner for one for the rest of her life. Sure, the new sheriff is seriously attractive, and after a second, much less dangerous run-in, he might not be that bad, but Jessie has no plan to marry, date, or even let a man into her life. Still, as the days pass, Trent’s surprising charm works past Jessie’s determination, and she finds promise in their budding relationship.

After opening up about the difficulties in her past, Jessie finds that Trent is guarding a dark tragedy of his own, one that might threaten their chance at a future together.
