What an amazing start to a beautiful and addictive series. Lena, you did it again.
This book is so beautiful written, with amazing and complex characters, and it was such a pleasure reading it. Lena has a way with words that make you a fan in matter of seconds. It has the same small-town feel that her Chikalu Falls series has, but a little more steam and an element of danger.
This was such a beautiful reading experience, and it was exactly what I needed.
This book is one of those books, which you want to read of forever and never reaching the end. It is so good, with great writing and amazing characters. The plot is well defined, the action is not rushed, and you have the time to enjoy, and later fall in love with the characters.
This is one of those books that remind me why I fell in love with romantics novel, and why I love so much those happily ever afters. This book is the perfect recipe for a great and successful book. It’s pure bliss, sunshine, happiness and love, with a touch (the perfect amount) of angst, all wrapped in perfect writing and great, lovable and relatable characters.
Val, is smart, driven, beautiful, charismatic, intelligent and stubborn. She is feisty, stubborn, knows what she wants and deserves, and will fought tooth and nail to make her dreams come true. I liked that she was strong and determined to make it on her own. She is driven, hard-working and honest. Sometimes a workaholic, she would stop at nothing to be the best at her job.
I loved her so much, she has such a beautiful, funny and vibrant personality, it is almost impossible not to love her. She is sassy, smart and always has the perfect response.
Evan, the bad boy, the one you never want to cross, stole my heart from the moment I met him.
He is handsome, and he knows it, with a body that could make the Greek Gods jealous, is easy-going, charismatic and has a smile that makes every girl and woman week in their knees. And that mouth, oh be still my beating heart.
He is loyal to a fault, tries his best to do the right thing by his sister and would stop at nothing to protect her. He is hard-working, smart, determined to change his life, and stubborn, so stubborn. He know he messed up and he tried his best to make up for his mistakes, and oh boy how did he grovel.
I loved the way his character was build, I fell in love with him instantly. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find something to hate about him.
Val and Evan's story hooked me from the prologue, and I swear I couldn't put the book down.
The attraction and chemistry between Val and Evan was undeniable, and their story so well written. It wasn't one of those instant love story, their story was a steady one, filled with back and forth steps.
They are both driven and hard working, and I found it amusing how they tried, and later failed, to keep their distance, even though the attraction and connection between them it was undeniable. They gravitated towards each other, always looking for the other or seeking the presence of each other.
And the sexual tension between them, oh my god I need to bath in holly water.
If you want a book that is gonna give you all the feels, and turn all your insides intro mush, that this book is definitely the one for you!
The ending was the perfect one for this couple, it was everything I had hoped for them, and I know for sure that the readers are also gonna fall in love with it. If you are a fan of happy endings, romance and characters that would raise all of your expectations when it comes to love in real life, this is the perfect book.
I can honestly say that I am a fan for life of Lena! And I am so excited to seeing more of her work because she is extremely talented. For me she is an instant buy author. I fell în love with her writing while reading her first book, and since then I’ve been a fan.

Spicy is an understatement when it comes to Evan and Val's story
Val is being sent to Redemption Ranch in Tipp, MT as part of a trial interview to get a job with ATF. It is unconventional, but it is her last chance to get out of a desk job in her current gig with Chicago PD. A dark stain from a police call gone wrong -- leaving two casualties -- has haunted her and her career, and this was her only hope to get promoted.Her assignment brings her to cross paths with Evan Walker, who has ties to her past. She knows she should avoid him at all costs and keep things professional and platonic, but who can resist a grumpy cowboy with a dark past?Perhaps it is a good thing that Montana has cold winters, but how else could Tipp residents keep their cool when so much heat is coming off from Evan and Val? The tension from the moment they meet to the epilogue just leaves you breathless and fanning yourself for air. Evan has a flair for dirty talk, and I am here for it (apparently so is Val).Spice aside, the story brings wonderful mystery and suspense. The climax will leave you at the edge of your seat and holding your breath, praying for a happy ending. If this sets the tone for the rest of the series, COUNT ME IN. I cannot wait to learn more about the rest of the Redemption Ranch, especially poor ol' Scotty.If you're looking for a fantastic spicy read about broody bad-boy ranchers and sassy heroines, look no further and pick up this copy.
