Find out how the popular Mule Hollow series started! A fan favorite from author Debra Clopton.

Love is in the air—or so hairstylist Lacy Brown believes when she swoops into Mule Hollow, Texas. Seeking matches for their bachelors, the town placed an ad for wives, and Lacy's salon is going to guarantee pretty ones! But the moment cattleman Clint Matlock meets the spitfire stylist, he can tell she won't last. Attractive women just don't stick around dusty cow towns like Mule Hollow; his mom certainly didn't. But Clint never expects Lacy to set his emotions spinning. Perhaps the trouble with Lacy Brown is that her last name should be Matlock!
