Whiskey Eyes // Waiting for Love — Mari Carr

Macie Sparks' number-one talent is talking. She's a huge fan of her own voice. Always has been. But lately the resident Queen of Gossip has been feeling blue. While she's helped several of her cousins find their happily ever afters, she can't help but think she missed the boat somewhere. Lucky for her, widower Hank Cooper is pretty fond of her stories and her off-color jokes and basically everything else Macie has to offer. After the death of his beloved wife, Hank found his way to Sparks Barbeque, where Macie caught his eye. The more time he spends with her, the more Hank starts to think that maybe lightning can strike twice. That a man can find two loves of a lifetime. And while all Macie knows is dating and keeping it casual and staying single, Hank isn't willing to dance to her tune. Because he wants Macie in his bed...and his life...forever.
