Publisher's Summary

The West was not so wild for Janie Fitzhugh. Living with her rancher husband, Abe Lawson, in rural Wyoming nearly broke her spirit, so she left. But eight years later, she returns to Muddy Gap to take a job at a new resort. When an unexpected danger arises, Abe seizes the chance to protect Janie and prove he's a changed man.

Janie's employer at the Split Rock Ranch and Resort, Renner Jackson, has gotten himself tangled up in a devil's bargain trying to finish the construction. His new partner's daughter, Tierney Pratt, is a spoiled daddy's girl and off-limits-no matter how drop-dead gorgeous she is. But Tierney's got her own secret reasons for keeping the rough-and-tumble cowboy at a distance.

When things get down and dirty at the resort, Abe and Renner must saddle up and fight to rope in the women they can't imagine living without.

Critic Reviews

"James mixes erotica with a great storyline. The characters are endearing and honest and you'll want to root for them." ( Romantic Times)

The Good Stuff

Would you consider the audio edition of Wrangled and Tangled to be better than the print version?

Yes because the narrator, really brought all the charcaters to life.

What other book might you compare Wrangled and Tangled to and why?

This book was pretty hot and steamy, just without all the extra kink! Which was a nice suprise because this author usually takes it all the way there. I love Lorilie James writing, i'm just not into all the erotic play.... mwm, mm,dom-sub ya know All That! However if you're into that she's your girl!

What about Scarlet Chase’s performance did you like?

The narrator was dead on. This story has very strong male characters and I usually prefer a male voice in reads like this however I don't think a man could have handled this read. Nice job.

If you could rename Wrangled and Tangled, what would you call it?

Nice and Nasty!

Two stories in one

Would you listen to Wrangled and Tangled again? Why?

I don't know. If I do it will be awhile. I liked the book in one way but then in another I didn't. I would of enjoyed it more if it was just a book for Abe and Janie or Renner and Tierney. It was hard at times to keep up with both relationships.

What does Scarlet Chase bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She just does the male voices so well.

Any additional comments?

I do love this series and I'm looking foward to book 4. This one is my least favorite, but it's not bad.

HOT HOT HOT!

Two! You get two hot stories in one! This is a great book and the stories are well woven together and resolve several of the loose ends that had been brought up in the previous stories. The common theme between the stories is that where there is love there is a way. It doesn't matter if you have been divorced for eight years or a two time loser up the aisle- when it's right you just have to put it out there and convince her to say yes. Fortunately, the cowboys in LJ's world are such prime examples of masculine goodliness that any woman would say 'Hell Yes!'. I think I'm going to Wyoming next year on holiday and pray I meet someone like the men in her books.

Scarlet does a great job of narrating and I liked the little 'bite' to her voice when she speaks in Tierney's voice- nailed it!

Two for the Price of One

I love when I get two stories for the price of one. Sold as Abe and Jainie's story getting Terney and Renner's story was an special surprise.

Abe and Jainie's story is good there is old history and new discovery about who the two of them have become between them. Overcoming old hurts and bad habits to find new love and respect for each other is never easy. Their story has plenty of heat as we've come to expect from James.

Terney and Renner however steal the show completely. They are far easier to cheer on because they aren't simply sexy but sweet and honest. Terney is the most honest straightforward likeable character I've ever encountered I any romance not simply erotic romance. She knows what she wants and what she feels and never wavers despite her lack of experience and people skills. She stands by her man because she loves him and he has never given her a reason not to. Renner see the sexy siren behind the glasses and not only worships her body but respects her mind while guarding her sweetness.

This book is a little oversexed even for the genre. It was almost as if having the two love stories happening at once forced the author to have the couples trying to one up each other in the sexy raunchy categories. Still both stories are satisfying in their conclusions.

Double the pleasure, double the fun

In this book we meet two handsome,hot, sexy men and the women who love them. Abe Lawson has always loved Janie, even though they divorced after a short marriage. Abe was an ass, but with Janie's love and patience he can change and become the man of Janie's dreams. They both have grown up over the years since their divorce and through trials and tribulation they make it back to each other.
Renner Jackson has a dream. A dream to own his grandparent's land and build a hunting resort. He's got part of it, the land, but he's run out of money. To get that money, he unknowingly sold his soul to the devil. Then the devil sends his daughter Tierney to "spy" on him, he resents it and her. He soon wants her and she him, but she has never been with a man, she is very hot for him but doesn't know what to do once she has him.
These stories intermingle with each other making this a great listen. Another great Blacktop Cowboys book.

Love this series......!!!

This series with so fun and enjoyable. But I will say that the narrator has made the books even more so......

absolutely fantastic!

I loved this audiobook and each story was fantastic and the narrator was fantastic. loved it

so good

she's one of my favorite authors and I love the series the character development is very well done how she crosses the pass between each character and the storyline really brings everything together nicely

Great read!

This was a great book. I would also like to add, "I LOVE the mud lilies!" These ladies are some of my favorite characters as well. Raw humor takes on a whole new role with these ladies.

This was like 2 in one

To me it seemed like it was equally about two couples romance and journey together. Each had their ups & downs & super somewhat kinky sex. Loved both of their intertwined stories, it was 1 book. Couldn’t decide which couple was supposed to be the main one but luckily they were both great sets of characters & storylines.
