Loving Blue in Red States: Sweetwater Texas

What’s it like to live and love blue in ruby red west-central Texas?

Emmie Warren is a middle school teacher who is just trying not to rock the boat until she can finish her Master’s Degree and find the courage to move herself and her son away from sleepy Sweetwater to diverse, vibrant Austin, the only place in Texas she ever felt free to be herself. She’s been hiding her truth for years. She doesn’t see any reason to change that before she can make a clean break of things and start all over.

Cass Prater is a brash cowgirl who lives life out loud, wherever she lives. Cass clashes with Emmie the minute they meet. It’s a battle of wills from there, on. She’s determined to show Emmie she can have it all: her family, a mate and a job that she loves, right there, in the heart of Texas.

Sweetwater Texas is the first story in the Loving Blue in Red States series by Anne Hagan. Look for other short stories and novellas to come out in this series in the future.
