Book Blurb: Ann Marie needs a horse trainer to ready her prized stallion to run for the money. When hunky horseman Travis Brooks answers her ad, she knows he’s the man for the job. But is she willing to let go of her husband’s memory and open up her heart to Travis?
Travis Brooks knows horses. But women? He can take ‘em or leave ‘em—mostly leave ‘em—especially since his divorce. Ann Marie pushes all his buttons and he’s not quite sure what to do with her. Can a stubborn horseman and one feisty rancher find love in the heat of the Texas Plains?
Review: I really enjoyed this story. Travis and Ann Marie had great chemistry in and out of the bedroom. There's a lot of backstory involved in this book that keep these two from admitting to their love early on. That backstory is really what makes things interesting.
This story has a really great plot, and the secondary characters really help to round things out, especially, Ann Marie's son and sister. They keep things from being all sex. And really, as much as I love a good smutty story, this one was a little too heavy on the bedroom action, more so than I thought was necessary, because the plot was so good. I wished there would have been more story action and less bedroom action. It felt like it wanted to be erotica...but it also wanted to be a more toned down romance. It lacked a little balance.
Sandy's writing style reminded me a lot of Vicki Lewis Thompson who writes a lot of spicy westerns for the Harlequin Blaze line. There really could be no cowboy sexier than Travis, and more damaged. You have to read the story to appreciate what a nasty...beoytch his ex-wife is.
I definitely would recommend this book to fans of spicier romance and westerns. Sandy Sullivan is going to be a name romance lovers will be hearing more of in the future, I'm sure.
