Country singer Lucy is driven into hiding due to a crazy stalker. She settles on Calamity, Montana, where she meets Duke, the local sheriff.
Duke and Lucy have an instant connection and the sparks fly between them. Their connection comes on strong and fast (they say I love you very quickly). There is no misunderstanding or angst, just an adorable love story with a dash of mystery.
Duke was straight up a good guy. He is loyal, protective, and compassionate. Lucy is strong and sassy. Duke helps her heal and she helps him find what he has been missing.
Yes, the story is far fetched. There is no way she isn't recognized just because she dyed her hair. I doubt a music superstar would really give up her whole career to live in a small town. This sets up the series well and I cannot wait to read the next book.
Tropes: instalove, secret identity, small town
