I thoroughly enjoyed this delightful story. The last person Zoe Bradshaw wanted to see was a sweetheart from 15 years ago. He had once promised that he would return but he never lived up to his promise. Now he is back home, trying to find a decent place for his late sister's kids to live. Seeing Cade after all these years makes her heart remember how she once felt, but Zoe is furious because he had not kept his promise to her. She will not allow her heart to be broken once again.As Lori Copeland developed each character, I found myself enjoying the story more and more. Zoe is a fiery woman with lots of spunk. She's not about to let anyone push her around. And Cade is so easy to fall in love with. He's such a man... and just the right temperament for this spunky lady. The four children are absolutely adorable and you can imagine what they're like in your mind's eye. A few other characters bring laughter to many scenes, which makes the book hard to put down. Lori has a real talent for creating humor and romance in the most delightful ways. She has you laughing one moment and sighing the next. Lori amazes me how she can make such humorous situations in between the serious ones.Review written by Linda Weaver Clarke, author of the historical romance series, A Family Saga in Bear Lake, Idaho. A KISS FOR CADE was an enjoyable, even humorous read set in the western planes of Kansas. Zoe Bradshaw finds herself not only mourning the loss of her best friend, Addy, but angry at her as well. Addy has asked that her bounty hunter brother, Cade decide the future of her four young children, children Zoe loves as her own. Once in love with Cade, Zoe doesn’t want him to return to Winterborn. He left promising his return and never looked back. And no matter how many times she tells herself she is over Cade, one look at him is all she needs to convince herself that the embers once ignited by him are still simmering deep in her heart. Zoe has two objectives: keep her distance from Cade, and convince him the children belong with her.Cade Kolby is in a quandary. His heart is still wrapped up in Zoe but with a man aiming to gun him down, Cade needs to leave Winterborn fast before he brings trouble to his hometown. In and out, that’s what he’s prepared to do. What he doesn’t plan for is the tug on his heartstrings by his sister’s children, or the comfort he finds in playing the part of a Pa, and wanting to be with Zoe. With a little help from the town folk, he just might be able to have what it is he’s always dreamt of, that is if Hart McGill doesn’t find him first.I really enjoyed A KISS FOR CADE. Written with one chapter flowing into the next, I didn’t really find time to put it down. There were humorous sections that really broke up what some might otherwise consider a predictable story. Sure, you’re fairly convinced you know the outcome, and there is the always present drama, but there was a quirkiness about A KISS FOR CADE that put a smile on your face as you read.
