Amelia Grayson is propelled into an unlikely match with Montana cowboy Garrett Strong, when they bid against each other for the Double J Ranch. Financing is tight for Garrett, but he is determined to preserve his beloved rodeo mentor’s historic ranch—the place he considers a second home. Amelia’s dream of starting a teen addiction recovery ranch is within grasp, but first she needs the money from her trust fund. Unfortunately, her grandmother included a marriage clause in the irrevocable trust, stating Amelia must be wed before she sees a dime.

Private investigators, past secrets, and a land-hungry oil and gas company threaten both of their dreams. When it appears neither will secure a contract for the ranch, can they agree to a marriage of convenience for the sake of the Double J?

An enjoyable romance.

Once the story got going I didn’t want to stop it. The characters were well written and the plot followed a winding path to a heart warming conclusion.

I Loved This Story

This was a fun clean listen. I loved the characters and the secondary characters were fun. The whole story keeps you guessing how it's going to turn out. I highly recommend.

Great storyline!

I loved listening to this book. The storyline was interesting. The narrator did an awesome job. I would definitely read a part 2 (if there’ll be one in the future).

city meets country

heartwarming story of necessity giving two people exactly what they always needed and wanted in life. narrator does a great job. hope there's more books to come

True Love Found

Amelia and Garrett may have started their arrangement for the purpose of monetary gains, but after all the adversity they endured they found true love. This sweet romance has all the great feels and wonderful characters. Meghan Kelly did a wonderful job with the narration.

Begrudgingly Engaged

I'm not usually one to listen/read clean romances. I'm usually into stories a little dirtier, but I really enjoyed this one.
Meghan Kelly does an amazing job as usual bringing the characters to life.
I enjoyed listening to how Amelia and Garrett start off prickly towards each other but the attraction, the chemistry soon takes over.
This story is full of some mysteries, and suspense that will keep you on the edge of your seat to know what is going on. How will they get through this? Will they succeed? I really enjoyed it and definitely recommend it.

Begrudgingly Engaged

This is such a sweet romance. The characters are fun and I could envision them from the beginning. Garret definitely has a soft spot for kids! And his brother is a character! Grandma money bags is also a loved character! My only bad thing to say is how she treated Garret when she found out he was previously or still married. Doesn’t everyone have a past. Fantastic narration.

captivating

This was one angst filled story. Both main characters had a common goal, but can they unite over all the obstacles? So many against them seems to make sparks fly and love grow slowly despite obstacles. This was a great story with engaging characters I became invested in. Integrity triumphs. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.

Great Clean Romance

I really appreciate a clean romancé with a good storyline that keeps you interested. I was up late enjoying this story. I have listened to other books by Kelly Nelson and enjoyed them all.

A bit of highest society meets cowboy.

This is a very cute story.. When I started it, I was like. Oh, have I heard this before? And then it all changed. The story takes many twists and turns. Keeps you very captivated, and what's going to happen? Very entertained so much, so you can't put it down. You wanna know what's going to happen next? This is the first time i'd believe I've ever heard this narrator, and I do a lot of listening. She definitely did her job. She elevated the story and brought it to life. I saw that motion picture in my head. Her man voices were very good. I'd like to see her work on her children voices a little bit better. But all and all She really brought the story to life and kept my attention. Where it belonged in the story.. And not distracted by the Narrator.
