Lily Salt has sworn off men. After finally gaining her independence, the
last thing she needs is another man telling her what to do. But the
handsome railroad engineer from New York isn't at all what she expected.
He's kind, gentle...and tempting enough to make her wonder what a
second chance at love might be worth.
A self-acknowledged black sheep, Roen Shepard knows what it means to feel alone. Recognizing a kindred spirit in the reserved widow whose fascinating blue-green eyes have seen too much, and charmed by the warmth of her ready-made family, the two begin an unlikely friendship.
When a complication from his past follows him to Frost Falls, Roen proposes a mad scheme to protect the new life he's built and keep close the stubborn woman he's accidentally fallen for—a marriage of convenience. But Lily has secrets of her own, and the closer he gets to uncovering them, the more he comes to realize that the only truth that matters is the secret to unlocking her heart.

Review: I loved, loved, loved reading A Touch of Forever. I have yet to read a book by Jo Goodman that I don't love, and this one was definitely no exception. Actually, it may very well be my favorite book in the Cowboys of Colorado series. Well, Roen is my favorite male hero of all three books, even though both Ben (book 2) and Remington (book 1) were great too. More than anything, I loved how Roen was brutally honest in every way, starting with himself and his past mistakes. That he never hid anything from Lily was a huge point in his favor.
Jo Goodman has that magic touch where she gets us hooked from page one, and she has done it again with A Touch of Forever. It's great to revisit Lily Salt and to see that she has managed to rebuild her life, and it's even better to witness the role Roen has there.
A Touch of Forever is a beautiful book, in more ways than one, and I guarantee you'll not only want to stay up late to finish it but also that' you'll be sorry to see it end. Totally crossing my fingers hoping Jo Goodman will write more books in this series.
Happy readings,
