Sarah Woodward is a mother with a mission. Two years after her husband dies, she moves her kids away from their fast-paced lives in suburban Atlanta to small town Hailey, Colorado. Her young sons aren't happy to leave their friends, but Sarah feels the family needs a fresh start with fewer complications. But she doesn't know a Colorado Senator has earmarked her ranch for purchase and he'll do anything to get it. Unwilling to sell, she dismisses his continued offers as an annoyance and improves the land with help from sexy stranger, A.J. Dodge.A.J. Dodge is a man with a past. He's returned to his hometown to begin again, ready to set down roots and make things right with his family. When his old friend Tommy Thornton asks a favor, a favor he can't refuse, Dodge gets tangled up with widow, Sarah Woodward. She's alone with her sons on a dilapidated ranch she's determined to get up and running, with or without his help. Dodge, busy working his own cattle on leased land, agrees to help her set up her ranch. The more time they spend together, the more he's drawn to her looks, her sharp mind and her unwavering support of him despite the rumors of his sordid past.Senator Ben Burwick is desperate for the Woodward Ranch. He's in bed with a shady land developer and he's made promises he may not be able to deliver. Feeling the squeeze to produce the Woodward land, Senator Burwick arranges to have her hired man quit and, in an act of spite, forces the abrupt end to Dodge's land lease in Hailey, leaving him scrambling to find a home for his cattle.Every door closes in Dodge's face and he turns to Sarah for help. She agrees to a long-term lease and her sons begin helping out on the ranch. When he discovers a cut fence wire on Sarah's property, Dodge is convinced his past has come back to haunt him. He feels guilty for drawing Sarah and her sons into his problems and ramps up his protectiveness of her and the ranch.When they both sense danger in the night, they seek out the source and find themselves safe but unable to keep their desire in check. But Dodge won't destroy another woman he cares for and stays away from Sarah as long as he can. Avoidance becomes impossible and Sarah challenges Dodge to face their feelings. When Dodge becomes involved with the beautiful widow, he'll risk everything to protect Sarah and the boys, including his heart.… (lisätietoja)

Good solid read, and a nice romance. I read this as a free e-book on ibooks and its one of the better ones but not super outstanding (it didnt make me want go and buy her other books). The characters (with the exception of the "villian") were fairly believable, the teenage kids gave me a few issues (I found it hard to believe they are as accepting as they are)but over all the book moved along at a nice place and was fairly enjoyable.

So predictable that it is forgettable. There is really nothing about this book that should make you choose it above the myriad of other titles in this genre. I finished it but it didn't engage me or move me in any way - a run of the mill romance. ( )

What I like:
Story build up is well written and downright awesome;
Secrets of the past;
The main female character ain't no wimp but the main male character is d a r n protective;
The author takes one situation and describes it from the mind of one of the main characters and then from the mind of the other main character. You get a well rounded view of what each character is thinking and of what is happening. No confusion there.

WHAT I DO NOT LIKE:
Too much colorful language;
Too much sexy passion gets boring after awhile;

TYPICAL ROMANCE STUFF:
L'amour but neither knows how the other feels aka misunderstandings.
Someone in the story always causes trouble aka the trouble-maker.
I would say that it is NOT Erotica due to the fact that it is a well structured story with "Action" but IS body part descriptive i.e., breasts, nipple, hard as a rock; (not really over the top). ( )
