In Come and Get it by Keira Cole, Dixie Rose is the classic sweet and loved by everyone Texas rose. Dixie lost her husband in Iraq and now works doing what she loves cooking and feeding people. She is adored by each and very one of the men she feeds everyday in her lunch truck, and any of them would defend her in an instant if anyone spoke badly of her.
Quinn Halladay has come to Texas for a consulting business at the contruction site. He is so used to the high life and culture from LA that he receives quite a shock from the difference to where he is now. He wants to buy a ranch, but Dixie is the owner of the ranch and he won’t do whatever he can to take it away like he usually would since he likes her.
As they go on a date, things get hot pretty fast, what Quinn wants he gets and he wanted her. But he is a playboy and he is not for settling for one girl. After everything that happened and what he felt with Dixie, he starts dating other women to see if he still feels attracted to any and all of them like he always has been.
Not going to tell you everything that happens, the story is short enough as it is. Somethings are a little too fast and other just don’t make a lot of sense but the story definitely has potential.

Sexy Dixie Rose Bonifay has sunk her roots deep in the Texas hill country she calls home. Having dedicated her life to the one thing she loves most—cooking—she’s built her own successful mobile food business catering to the construction workers in the area, and she’s stirring up the appetite of every man around, in more ways than one.
When smug California architect Quin Halladay comes to town, he sets his sights on Dixie’s ranchland—and on Dixie herself. Confident and charming, he can’t wait to bed the alluring Dixie and add yet another notch to his bedpost. What Quin doesn’t realize is that Dixie can match wits with him every step of the way, and before Quin knows it the Texas beauty has turned the tables on him and he can’t get her out of his head.
As the two get down to business in a romantic Texas two-step, it’s a battle of wills and wits between small-town smarts and big-city arrogance. And with all the local men circling their wagons to protect the woman they’ve come to love and respect, Quin will have to prove himself and choose between the city life he knows and the Texas rose he’s come to love.
