At a Governor's Ball in Austin, Texas, True Lee Cameron meets suave Sam Deleon. Before the night is out, she transforms from the coddled and protected younger sister to a woman in love. Reality crashes down when she accidentally learns he has deceived her. Daring to disobey him, she follows Sam to the oilfields and determines to live wherever he does. Has she made a mistake? Will she give up and return home where she can make her own rules?
When Sam Deleon meets the gorgeous young woman his mother has chosen for him, he fears falling in love, because he knows nothing about love. In order to carry out his mother’s plan, he marries True and moves her to his mother's home, intending to visit enough to set the plan in motion. When True fails to obey him, he faces the possibility of losing her, thereby losing his inheritance and the family property.
Sam and True attempt a reconciliation and compromise. Together, they now face a nemesis, someone who determines to thwart every action they take, endangering not only their lives, but also those whom they love.

Good morning, Celia. Texas Promise is probably my favorite of your Cameron family stories. But since I like all of them, it is hard to choose. I felt the emotional depth of the two main characters in this book was really great. The book stayed in my mind long after I finished it...and that is the mark of a really good book. I'd love to see these Cameron sisters books in print. They are keepers!
Howdy ladies, Celia, these are on my TBR list for sure. And the covers are beyond gorgeous I can't wait to spend more time in Texas. I'm going back in October!
Shaunna, nice to meet you.
Linda and Tanya-
Thanks for stopping by. These are indeed good reads.
Linda--oh, you don't know how much I want these books in print--such a shame to let the gorgeous covers go to waste. But remember--where there's a will, there's a way.
Texas Promise is pretty much my favorite, too, although it's like being partial to one child over the other. Can't do it.
Texas True is a little different, in that Sam Deleon deceives her, and through her innocence, is gullible. But it doesn't take our girl very long to get a backbone and chart her own course--Sam can follow or not. Hmmm, will he? He's a hard man to love...for sure.
TANYA--well, howdy to you, too! I thank you so much for visiting me and Shaunna. Your TBR pile is probably like mine--it's like putting too much food on your plate-my eyes are sometimes bigger than my stomach.
Have a great day! And take care of yourself!
I love the fire in True Lee. She's a woman after my own heart. Anybody wants to read a western romance, they should start with Celia's books. They are just right.
