Sara Dobbs works in a book store in the quaint little town of Jacobsville, Texas.  Sara is on her own. She spends her time either at work or cuddling her cat Morris. Jared Cameron is a wealthy successful business man who storms into town and into Sara’s life. Jared is rude and condescending and yet Sara is still attracted to him. Sara and Jared can’t seem to stay away from each other but when they’re together things usually go badly between them. When Jared brings danger to Sara’s door, he’s forced to see that Sara means more to him that he thought.

Jared takes Sara’s virginity and then he’s horrible to her afterwards in Iron Cowboy. He’s not a very endearing hero. Sara is extremely sweet and innocent but she can hold her own against Jared when she needs to. Iron Cowboy is a bit old fashioned. It’s full of angst and drama. It’s a fair story with characters suitable to its story.
