About this audiobook

Nikki Hunt thought her night couldn't get worse when her no-good, cheating ex ditched her at dinner, sticking her with the bill. Then she found his body stuffed in the trunk of her car and lost her two-hundred-dollar meal all over his three-thousand-dollar suit. Now not only is Nikki nearly broke, she's a murder suspect. Former cop turned PI, Dallas O'Connor knows what it's like to be unjustly accused. But one look at the sexy-though skittish-suspect tells him she couldn't hurt anyone. The lead detective, Dallas's own brother, has the wrong woman and Dallas hopes a little late-night "undercover" work will help him prove it . . . **Previously published as Don't Mess With Texas

    This is the first story written by Ms. Craig, that I have read. I definitely plan to read her newly released sequel, 'Blame It on Texas.' 'Don't Mess with Texas' is another book filled with humor, romance, and unraveling mystery, and great secondary romance and "mystery.' I especially loved the Grandma and the dog.

    Don't Mess with Texasby Christie Craig4.5 stars/Contemporary RomanceDon't Mess with Texas is a sexy, romping good time that you won't want to miss!The first in a new series by Christie Craig called Hotter in Texas, this book opens with two lovable characters; Nikki Hunt and Dallas O'Connor. Nikki becomes the prime suspect in a murder case when her no-good, cheating, ex-husband's body is discovered--- in the trunk of her car! Dallas is a private investigator and ex-cop, who knows exactly what it is like to be falsely accused. At first he thinks Nikki might be involved in the murder but things just aren't adding up once he gets to know her. Jumping in to help her case, neither can deny the chemisty between them as Dallas tries to uncover the truth.This book is laugh out loud funny. I totally loved it! The suspense of the investigation to find Jack's killer was interplayed well with the budding romance between Nikki and Dallas.The great cast of supporting characters including Tony and LeAnn were perfect to help keep the story moving forward.I am already anticipating the next book in this series called Blame it on Texas, expected in September 2012.Highly recommended.

    Loved it! Don’t Mess With Texas was my first Christie Craig adult novel. I read the first book in her YA series, Born at Midnight, and found I loved the style of writing she displayed. I was eager to check out some of her romance novels aimed at adults. Don’t Mess With Texas showcases a perfect combination of humor, wit, and tender moments that actually had me in tears. The POV shifts between numerous characters. While the primary focus is on Dallas and Nikki, we also get to know Dallas’s brother who is trying to win back his wife. Their story will break your heart. Then there is Nikki’s grandmother. I love books with eccentric old folks! I knew she was my kind of character from the moment she showed up in her Annie Oakley costume.Dallas and Nikki’s relationship actually starts when she barfs on him in a parking lot after she discovers her ex-husband’s body in her trunk. The craziness doesn’t stop there. This novel was so not like any other romance I’ve ever read. How could I not love it? Dallas was smoking hot and Nikki was so sweet, but a little naïve. At times I couldn’t understand why she wasn’t more upset about what was happening to her. It isn’t everyday she was accused of murder. I think that was just part of her personality though. She is the kind of character who worries more about other people than herself. I really liked both of them and the chemistry was sizzling!This was a fantastic series debut. The character development was some of the best I’ve ever seen and the plot progressed at a nicely moving pace. I’m always impressed when an author can introduce us to so many characters and still produce a book that doesn’t feel overwhelming and manage to wrap up all the loose ends. Christie Craig did just that. I can’t wait for the next book in this series!
