Publisher's Summary

If you like bad-boy heroes, western settings, and a sexy, sassy heroine you will love Jennifer Ryan's newest Wild Rose Ranch book! Perfect for fans of Diana Palmer, Linda Lael Miller, and Jodi Thomas.

One minute down-on-his-luck rancher Austin Hubbard slept soundly, the next, a sassy spitfire dumped a pitcher of water on his head and woke him up - in more ways than one. Hired to help him rebuild his ranch, Sonya Tucker ends up helping him put the tattered pieces of his life back together. The capable, all-business accountant is on a mission to get the ranch up and running, but can he convince the temptingly beautiful woman to take a chance on him?

Sonya was dismayed that Austin had lost it all: money, family, respectability. Things she - who’d been raised by her mother at Nevada’s notorious brothel Wild Rose Ranch - only dreamed about. But working with the long, lean cowboy shows her that Austin is honorable to his core. Together they slowly grow to see what the love between them might bring.

But then Austin’s powder keg of a family feud explodes, exposing long-buried secrets, and threatening their new-found love…

Great book

Typical soap opera book. Steamy and good. I was disappointed in the person who read the book. Can’t there at least be an actual male voice for the male parts? It was a bit distracting.

Wild Rose Ranch girls are back

There was some good that came from Wild Rose Ranch and two of them were in Montana. One for a short time, or so the assumption went. The other taken on new enterprises. Making friends and enemies. A Life. This time we get Sonya. Her life was not the simple road that you may have thought it was. It was not just straight forward choices of one. It was a multitude of life circumstance and an less than stellar beginning that lead Sonya to the place she was at in life. She grew strong, fierce and independent. She had one line that she would let no one cross. The love she chose to share and whom to share it with. Sonya was in town for one thing. Protect her sister's investment. The investment that looks to be in jeopardy if the man she walks up on is any indication of the situation.

Austin was too stubborn to let go of the one thing in the world that truly belonged to him. The twist and turns of the trouble that was coming his way was not expected. You knew from the determination in the other man pursuits that it was so much more to the story of wanting that piece of land and the lengths that he would go through to get it. Teaming up with his best friends girl friend came with added benefits. Aside from the much needed cash infusion, came the clean up and repair of his home, a feisty and beautiful woman, and answers to questions that he had and some that he did not even know he needed to ask. .

Jennifer Ryan had done it again she gave a series that draws you further in with each new addition. She gave you a new couple to root for when you were wanting answers just as much as they were. She threw in the twist just at the right moment. She even added a bit of the crazy for good measure. This was a pleasing read with more coming.

I love Coleen she does a great job with both male and female characters. She bring the to life and give emphasis well to each situations.
