Bounty

De: Kristen Ashley

Narrado por: Emma Taylor

Justice Lonesome has enjoyed a life of bounty. Even so, she's inherited the curse of the Lonesome. A poet's soul. Which means she's still searching for something. Searching for peace. Searching for the less...that's more. And when the foundation of her life is pulled out from under her, grieving, she goes to the mountains to find her oasis. She hits Carnal, Colorado, and decides to stay.

Deke Hightower lost everything at the age of two. He lost it again at 15. His life has not been about bounty. It's been about learning to live with less, because there's no way to get more. Deke's also watched all his friends go down to the women who gave them what they needed. He wants that for himself. But he knows that search isn't going to be easy, because he's a rider. His home is the road. That's the only place he can breathe. And the woman who takes her place at his side has to do it sitting on the back of his bike.

When Deke meets Justice, he knows she's not that woman. She's cute. She's sweet. And she's into him, but she's got it all, and Deke knows he won't fit in to that. So he holds her at arm's length. Establishes boundaries. And Justice will take it, because she wants Deke any way he'll let her have him. But when Justice finds herself a pawn in a dangerous game, Deke makes a decision. When he does, he has no idea he's just opened himself up to bounty.

Like listening to a pleasant babbling brook

I find all of Kristen Ashley's books pleasantly mellow and relaxing, just like sitting next to a babbling brook. Absolutely the perfect thing to play in the background as I am busy doing other mindless chores. Having said that, her books are not all that dynamic. Sometimes I miss large segments due to distraction but find when I tune back in I have missed absolutely nothing at all. I would never sit down and actually read one of her books because not enough actually ever happens. The first time I listened to a Kristen Ashley book I thought it was a big fat waste of my time. Where was the plot? That was a weak story line! But I listen to a lot of books to distract me from a serious case of tinnitus (phantom ear buzzing/noises 24/7 in one ear). I've come to appreciate Kristen Ashley does a credible job of creating an idyllic world we could imagine ourselves living in. As time has gone along I've come to appreciate that Kristen Ashley is like easy listening rock music. Do you admit to your co-workers it's on your playlist, do you go to the concert? Maybe not. But you may tap your foot to it on occasion and when you're in the mood. So if you want to sit next to a babbling brook for a while, Kristen Ashley may be an author you'd enjoy. If you're looking for something with lots of drama, emotion and tension, you probably should keep shopping.

Favorite of this series

This was my favorite of this whole series, and that's saying a lot because they're all wonderful.

Perfect.

I enjoyed reading this book, but I LOVED listening to it. KA as always delivers an awesome story! The narrator is a perfect match! She doesn't try too hard as most others do...over emphasizing and exaggerating to the point of my eyes rolling. An enjoyable tale of a gypsy and her nomad mountain man both with hearts of gold! root myself in you...all I need...chain links, white tee

Must read!!

I’m a huge Kristen Ashley fan!! Loved the Colorado series by far Bounty was my favorite
