Story
Tall, lean and headstrong, FBI agent Kilraven lives by his own rules. And one of those rules includes keeping his hands off Jacobsville’s resident sweetheart, Winnie Sinclair, no matter the temptation. Shy and innocent, Winnie couldn’t handle a man like him – a merciless man with a haunted past. And this small town may hold not only the woman he fights to resist, but the answers to a cold case that is very personal to Kilraven.

Story
A vacation at her godmother's ranch near Abilene would have been the perfect place for Maggie Turner to escape her ex-husband's threats. Perfect, that is, if it hadn't been for Gabe Coleman. Tall, lithe, and lean, he was just as blunt, rude - and powerfully sensual - as he'd been 10 years ago. His cold formality gave her the goose bumps. And his icy blue eyes watched her like those of a hungry cat - daring her to look beneath his savage surface. She thought marriage had cured her of desire. Then the raging passions of a Texas cowboy gave her a new lease on love.

When Abby went home to the Big Sky country she'd always loved, she seemed more like a wounded bird than a glamorous fashion model. After what had happened in New York, she could never let any man touch her again. But Cade McLaren had never been like any other man. In his powerful arms, she began to forget the terror and enjoy the feel of his touch. If only his attentions stemmed from love instead of pity. Abby didn't want Cade's charity. She hungered for that other, all-consuming blaze of love she'd sparked in him one summer night a lifetime ago….

If I could give it less then 1 star I would
Spoilers
Cort is an ass. He’s rude, mean and verbally abusive and the female love interest falls for him anyway. His actual girlfriend is her High School bully and runs her over with his car and she forgives and forgives. The female love interest is laying in the road paralyzed from the legs down and everyone is more worried about the mean girls pretty dress being stained with blood (including the paralyzed girl! And the cop investigating the accident! And her own aunt!) the mean girl then just moved in and is her best friend.
Girl, if you cyber bully me then run me over with a car and kill my pet chicken I am NEVER going to be your friend.
Man, tell me I’m ugly, have no talent and you hate my flat boobs I am NEVER going to love or even like you.
Gaaaahhh, what is the author thinking? Self esteem much?
Don’t read this book.

Better than normal DP
It's rare for DP to write a story where the hero isn't at least 10 years older than the barely-legal virginal heroine, but for once she did. She also seems to reuse plot devices as if they were Tupperware, but this story was a bit more original and even more believable. I did feel sorry for the demise of Pumpkin the cowboy attacking rooster. The hero's former girlfriend was a bit of a stretch, but put up with it.
The narrator was decent and she was able to perform both male and female characters comfortably.

Juvenile, but Sweet
In my opinion it is better suited to a teenage audience, than a mature one.
It's sweet, with a little humor about her rooster.
The narrator has a nice voice.

Diana Palmer does it again!!
Palmer never failing to spin a story that engages the readers and draws them into the story again. and this story is no exception as she uses humor, suspense, dislike, and love to entertain us. from two rich heirs who are best friends who have numerous women throwing themselves at them to the poor down trodden orphan who is a neighbor harrassed by the sister of one of the heirs, great aunts, farm hands, etc. the characters are numerous and varied but my favorite is a two legged Male who struts around with no respect for boundaries or rules. selfishly satisfying his own needs he strikes fear into those around him with his dangerous interactions with them. is it one of the rich heirs, someone else? you really must read this book to see who this character is, how he developed, and how he comes to a brutal end of life. you won't regret it.

Romance for the very uptight
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
This book is filled with the author's very awkward and obvious life style opinions. If you are a prude and like very superficial character stereotypes this is the book for you.
What was most disappointing about Diana Palmer’s story?
Lacks relatable characters and it's very superficial. She had the opportunity to explore a very difficult topic and squandered it. Extreme lack of character building.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
Nothing, the story didn't give her much to work with from the beginning.
