There are so many characters, each have their own goals not
all are good ones. The widow needs a husband to keep her land after her husband
died, from an accident on a horse. Her foremen wants
to marry her to help her keep the land. The bank has their own interest that
does not always seem on the up and up. The widow's son doesn’t want a new
father and is close to the foremen. The
widow doesn’t want another man telling her what to do she has plans of her own.
She places an ad for a husband who can take orders and stay out of her way, she
wants his name only but it seems he has other ideas. In rides Ranger Rex Duncan
(under another name, he is out to find out who is behind the under hand
dealings and people being taken for their money) who not only shakes the
widow's life up but her foremen and sons as well. It seems no one is happy with
this setup from the widow
to the banker. What follows is some very entertaining reading.
Ms. Woodworth’s really brought this story to life for me as she pulled me in using emotion filled with sorrow, anger, hurt and pain along with excitement, danger and thrills. I had no trouble picturing the events as they unfold. She really made me feel how Rex was fighting his self from his past issues, to his brother that really pulled on my heart along with his growing feeling for Regina. I could feel Regina sorrow from the loss of money to losing her ranch to wanting the say in how it is run as well as her mixed feeling for Rex. Her confusion for so many issues came through loud and clear as does her and Rex mixed feelings for each other. Her tones are right on the mark keeping the listener on the edge waiting for the next shoe to drop. There are no volume changes, no background noise or any repeating of words. If any breaks were taken I could not tell. Her male voices were just as good as her female voices, you have no trouble knowing who is talking and just what they are feeling. Her normal voice is very pleasant as well as her character voices given with true emotions. This was a very easy audio to listen to as the narrator pulled me in with the mystery, to what each person goals were. I had to trouble feeling pain and sorrow as well as the confusion, smiles and tears. I was held captivated from the first page to the last. For me she really bought this audio to life.
I thought the plot was great, the characters outstanding. The author wrote this in a way that you could feel the pain and sorrow as well as the smiles and laughs. You could tell a lot of thought when into the layout and writing of this story. At times, it is a very emotional read filled with passion, confusion and love as well as hate, anger and lies. There is excitement, lots of danger and a little adventure. I could feel the mix feeling of Regina and Rex as they faught the growing love for each other. For me it was a win from start to finish, I truly enjoy the story and the outcome made my heart beat faster as it was touch ago to who would win this game of cat and mouse.

Summary
Neither Rex nor Regina wants a spouse, but they do have
needs.
Ranger Rex Duncan needs a false identity—just long enough to uncover a ring of Kansas ranch thieves. Answering Regina’s ad for a temporary husband, he leaves his beloved red dirt of Oklahoma to assume that disguise. But the most obstinate woman he’s ever known confounds his assignment, and with hair the red color that has always made his heart beat a little faster.
Regina Howard needs a new Mrs. in front of her name—just long enough to reclaim her deceased husband’s ranch, since Kansas law won’t allow women to own property. When Rex answers her ad for a husband who can take orders as part of a brief business arrangement, she finds this stubborn man ignores her every command. Yet a good man is far more than just a name…
