Publisher's summary

For over three decades Diana Palmer has wowed Romance fans with passionate tales from America’s heartland. In Tough to Tame, listeners are transported to Jacobsville, Texas, where veterinarian Dr. Bentley Rydel works hard and has little time for the opposite sex. Into his world comes Cappie Drake, an assistant at the clinic where he works—and the woman who’s going to tame this hot-tempered Texan if it’s the last thing she does.

Great story with an excellent outcome!

This was my first time being introduced to Diana Palmer's writings. Enjoyed the book especially as a native Texan. I have already downloaded another book with great anticipation.

What's with the Cover???

I've been listening to some of Diana Palmer's other books because I was in the mood for the Cowboy stories! Although I DID read the publishers info & reviews, the cover of this book shows a Cowboy with his Horse on the backround of prairie land!! It leads you to believe it is another one of the "Old Western" type stories, however, it's actually a modern story with cars & airplanes!!! Since I wasn't prepared for the modern story, it took me awhile to adjust & accept the situation...having said that, the book was actually pretty good and had good characters with an interesting plot. If the cover had been different & I had been prepared, then I'm sure I would have liked it right from the start. Hopefully, others will read this and be more prepared than I was! Actually, Jack Garrett, the narrator, has a deep sexy voice & is wonderful to listen to! So I'm sure others will enjoy it!

Love siblings

The relationship between the siblings was lovely. A dynamic not always explored in any books.

Reader Confused

Would you listen to Tough to Tame again? Why?

Absolutely, the story was as good as always from Diana Palmer.

Did Jack Garrett do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

No Rourke is from South Africa not Texas. It would had been funnier hearing Rourke with his British accent not a Texas twang.

Feminism be darned.

Not a bad listen, but it sets women back 75 years back into the kitchen and bedroom.
