My Review
What could be more exciting than a long time family feud and
a budding romance? Ms. Fyffe brings us another exciting read filled with
baiting, angry, sorrow and love. She puts her own twist on this story you will
not see coming. Two people can’t stand each other letting a feud take over only
they both can’t seem to forget the other. Both are attracted to the other but
will not let anything come of it. They spend their time fighting that
attraction only they seem to keep getting in each other’s way. I have loved this series from the start. This new
addition just makes me love it more.
Dustin has spent many years fighting the Calhoun’s at every
turn they seem to always be in his way at all cattle sales causing trouble. You
would think he would get a fair share and get a break. This is not happening
when the youngest Calhoun’s gets into trouble and the judge decides he must
stay at the McCutcheon ranch. What in the world was this judge thinking
everyone knows how the Calhoun’s and McCutcheon’s feel about each other. Things
are taking out of his hands and he must do as the judge has ordered. He isn’t
going to like it. As his mind goes back to the pretty little lady he thinks he
might just find out where and who she is. That is when he sees her walk into
the court room. No one is more shocked than he when she is there for Noah her
brother. Just his luck the best looking women in town and she is a Calhoun. This
is one strong, tough, caring loving man who will steal your heart.
Sidney is still thinking about the hunk of a cowboy that she
saw earlier when she walks in the court room and sees him. You could have
knocked her over with a feather when she found out who he was and that her brother
would have to stay on his ranch to work off his debt. As things take a turn
from bad to worse she just doesn’t know how things could get any worse, she is
about to find out and she isn’t happy. Not only is she going to have to fight
for her brother making sure they treat him right now she has to fight the
attraction with a man she is suppose to and does hate or does she. I just loved
the sassy up standing lady who will stand up for her love ones and fight to the
bitter in.
Corey M. Snow as the narrator did a
wonderful job with the narration. He really brought this audio to life for me
with his smooth deep rich voice that you could listen to all day. I totally
loved his male and female voices. You had no trouble knowing who was talking or
what they were feeling. There was no background noise or any places where the
audio was louder or lower just a very smooth wonderful listen. If any breaks
were taken you could not tell, each chapter was in the same volume giving the customer
a totally outstanding listen. This is an audio you will not want to put down as
you find things to do so you can listen longer. Mr. Snow brings so much too
this audio as he puts emotions to the story and paints a picture of Texas and
the areas around it. You can see the landscape in your mind as you flip from
character to character wondering just how this will all work out. He really
bought this audio to life for me. I can’t wait to listen to more from him.
What can I say about Ms. Fyffe that
hasn’t been said before…. She has been one of my go to authors when I wanted an
exciting love story full of passion as she brings people together and let them
fight it out through love. She writes stories that will stay in your mind
giving you a smile why you long to be part of the towns she creates. I always wish
I could jump into one of her stories being taken back to a time I would dearly
have loved to live in. There is no doubt when you pick up one of her books you
are in for a roller-coaster ride full of emotions as they bait each
other fighting to the finish line. Her characters are easy to fall in love
with. You have no trouble relating to and feeling for each one of them. Dustin
and Sidney are sure in a pickle as they fight their love trying to stay true to
their family. Sometimes family just isn’t enough when ones heart gets in the
way. Both are strong characters, who are use to getting their way, they stand
up for what they believe in and will fight to keep it. Nothing is more
important than family and their values that is until Dustin and Sidney eyes
meet. The supporting characters are wonderful they keep you smiling and
chuckling throughout the listen. There are places where your heart goes out to
each one of them when their sorrow comes out. These are normal people living
normal lives just trying to do their best and make a place on the wild Texas
land. They live and love giving so much to each other. If you haven’t
read/listen to anything by this author you do not know what you are missing.
This is one author who gives her heart to her characters with a wonderful rich
clean story that pulls you in. I never want to see one of her books end and can’t
wait for the next ones to begin. I highly recommend anything this author writes.
