Friends to lovers

Sweet romance!

Love this family and always a heartfelt story. Well written and brings you a few surprises along the way. Can't wait for the next one!

Sweet romance between Rachel and Jim

This has been such a sweet series, no pun intended! All the brothers except one had found someone to get part of the money to help the ranch, and in the process had fallen in love. Rachel and her sister knew it is their turn to help, but had no prospects. That is until Jim Henderson came back to town. Jim and Rachel had been best friends since high school, but hadn’t seen each other in ten years. I loved how the two felt the same like it was old times. Jim was well off financially, but felt depleted emotionally until he reconnected with Rachel. The two did a lot of talking, and some of it was overheard by a busy body which started rumors all over town! There was also a suspenseful moment that had the two really thinking about their feelings. I enjoyed the book and encourage you to read it.

awesome

Love this series. Rachel and Jim reconnect when he comes back. Now that it was her turn to get married. Rachel and Jim had been best friends as kids and this rekindling of emotions is very scary for Rachel.

Great story

Another fabulous book. Looking forward to the 5th one. I love a good, clean love story. I’ll be waiting for the next one while i read now a murder mystery. By BRUCE.
