This is a story of learning to stand on your own two feet stepping out of the shadows and showing what you are made of not only for Carey but for his very young brother. With his twin who usually takes control making the decision is away on his honeymoon he must learn to take over with trouble comes knocking.  This is a running ranch but they do hire out to city folks when it comes time for the around up and drive. Giving them a taste of what a true old fashion trail ride is all about. Well that is with a few update things like a shower and good home cooked meals. Not everyone is happy when one woman decides to see how much trouble she can stir up with her holier than thou ways.  With one son down it leave their father trying to find ways to get his other sons married off.  Here you will learn more about the town, drugs and girls of the night. It takes two strong women who break their ties to start a new life and help out the Carson when trouble comes knocking.

This narrator is one very talented person giving a compelling listen with such passion you can feel through her voice. She really brings this audio to life giving you a highly entertaining read. She puts such emotion into the audio you can feel the pain, sorrow, sadness, joy, happiness through her tones. Her performance is outstanding as she pulls you in taking you way through the excitement and danger that comes. I love her many different voices from her sexy strong males to her sassy strong women. She pulls deep inside herself giving you a compelling listen that will leave you chuckling and at times laughing. She knows how to hit the correct tones really keeping the listener invested as they wait for the next shoe to drop. There are not any background noises and no breaks were taken that I could tell. You can picture the story unfold through her voice and her tones. You have no trouble knowing who is talking or what they are feeling. I just love to be taken away by this very talented narrator. I can hardly wait for the next listen.

What you will find in this story is not everything is as it seems nor the people. There are a lot of twists and turns that you won’t see coming. A few might even shock you. As I get more into this series I just love the characters from their humor to their troubles the plot really pulls you in giving you a wonderful outstanding listen you can get lost in.

At first you do not know what to think of Amy and a few of the other characters. Amy is having a hard time not only with the vacation that seems more like work but slowly she is building her confidence back so she can get back to the job she loves.  Out of all the characters in this book she surprised me the most. I sure didn’t see that coming. Watching her grow, get strong and pull herself together was just delightful. There are a lot of times I had to laugh out loud at her and her horse.

Carey is so unsure of his self not knowing that deep inside him is a place that is very strong. When the chips are down and he is needed he does his best to pull the whole ranch together to overcome the danger he finds his self in. I loved watching him grow and letting his light shine his is a very intelligent that just needs a chance to prove his self.  Wait until you see his truck man would I love to have a ride in it.

The author brings damage, love, sorrow, pain, starting over, humor, fun, and excitement to this read. I loved the plot and the twists and turns I didn’t see coming. The emotion is real with real issues and the characters are pretty down to earth. People you will grow to love. Getting hooked on this series has been so easy. In fact I just bought the rest of the series I didn’t already own. I just love box sets and the author has a wonderful deal on them. I love the authors writing style she really knows how to hold you on the edge with excitement and thrills. Some of the danger you will work out, other parts will keep you in surprise. I can’t wait to start the next book in this series.
