Resumen del Editor

Cattleman Bran Turner is left shorthanded during busy calving season when a bull tramples his hired hand. Rural Wyoming isn't exactly a hotbed of qualified candidates, and the only applicant for the position is the pampered town beauty, Harper Masterson. The curvy cowgirl gets under Bran's skin at every turn, but with no other options, he reluctantly hires her.

When sexual sparks ignite, down-on-her-luck Harper convinces Bran that not only is she capable of pulling calves, feeding livestock, and handling backbreaking ranch chores, but she doesn't mind getting down and dirty, either. Harper also discovers the hot-bodied cowboy isn't all work and no horseplay... and he's got more than a few tricks up his sleeve. Brian will learn quickly that Harper is no country mouse - and that she might just have what it takes to stick around for the long haul.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"James once again writes her trademark hot alpha hero and strong, feisty heroine in the second fast-paced and sexy Blacktop Cowboys novel." ( Romantic Times)

A little plot to go with your steamy sex?

I'm sure that in a few months when I've forgotten the plot or characters, I'm going to remember the sizzle and steam of this book. And I'll never be able to think about ranchers the same.
Our guy hero is your classic reticent rancher, but deplores conspicuous consumption (overt displays of wealth), and hints at a strong moral compass and a little discerning when it comes to women. Our gal hero is not what she seems, as he soon finds out.

The relationship intrigue builds. The surprises keep coming in this book. Our rancher has not only read 50 shades and its ilk, he apparently modelled it back before he became discerning (smile). Ms James does sex like no one else (& I've read/listened to over 52 books this year). And she does it differently than anyone else. The couple's explorations arn't so much the power/dominance dynamic as they are and expression of the growing emotional intensity as they both anticipate the countdown of her departure while trying to mask their emotional attachment to each other.

If you like linda lael miller, but want a lot more heat a lot of the time, this'll crown your bookshelf.
The narrator is truly excellent, in a rare top 5 category. This is an excellent buy for one credit or for cash. I'll be ready more by this author. After a cold shower and a cool down with Larissa Ione or Christine Feehan.
I'd give this a 4.5 if I could. I'll round up to a 5. I really think you should get this book.

Nothing but fun!

This one is just Sweetly madding! Men can be so Stupid and we just want to scream. Well you get several in this book but Harper is such a Wonderful character that you riot for her all the way!

2nd Book Skyrocket

I enjoyed this book very much. It was a little tamer than the first book of the series but that doesn't mean the book lack in spiciness and sexiness.

AMAZING!

Wow! I’m not going to give you a blow by blow, I hate it when people spoil the story, but this has been one of my favorite books by Lorelei James!

Warning… If you don’t like graphic sex, this book won’t be for you! But… if you like that style of writing this book has it all, as well as a great story!

Love any Lorelei James Books, Always a GREAT Listen.

Excellent romance

This one has a great storyline and interesting characters. There’s a building relationship, a very hurtful past, lots of really good super hot sex, mixed with some angst & heartaches. Great narration by Ms Chase.
I’m really glad I decided to give this author another try, the 1st in this series was my 1st of hers. In my opinion besides the hot sex the 1st book didn’t have anything going for it. There was too much jealousy between the 2 guys over her and way too much info on the different rodeo circuits. I gave it 3 stars.

great story

I enjoyed this story because it was realistic and heartfelt. The narrator is excellent!
