The perfect ending for this trilogy. I really enjoyed this story and am glad Reid and Sarah sorted each other out and had a happily ever after. This one was full of interesting twists and turns with a very satisfying ending.

Deliciously soap opera-y romantic goodness with all the classic melodramatic tropes of the genre. An eye-rolling enjoyable read. Bring popcorn, stay for the ‘will she, won’t he, can they’ rollercoaster reveal. Five stars for unashamedly embracing and revelling in the histrionics.

Nenáročná oddechovka, která mě nakonec dost bavila i přes klišé, kterých tu bylo hafo. Konec dobrý všechno dobré a já tuto knížku zhltla za den.

Book # 3 - Southern Cross Ranch
4 1/2 Stars! ~ For years Sarah's been in love with Reid. They met when she was attending University and she took the job of school teacher in the outback town with the expectations of a future with him. All was going well, and Reid was going to ask her to marry him, he had the ring. Reid's father took ill suddenly, and dies before he could tell Reid his deepest secret. When Reid learns the dark secret from his mother, he's devastated. He can't marry Sarah. He can't ever allow himself to be a father. He'd only taint anyone who loved him. So he broke up their relationship without an explanation. Years pass. Sarah deep inside feels Reid still loves her and that causes her to remain in her job. She sees the yearning and the desire in his eyes. As Reid's brother returns home with his new wife and Annie prepares for her wedding, Sarah is caught up once again in Reid's life. Annie's paired Reid and Sarah together in the wedding party. This is sweet torture and they find their passions ignite once more. Only Reid is even more determined to push Sarah away. It's only when Sarah commits herself to moving away for good, that Reid must face his decisions.
This is by far the best of the three. This is a powerful story of a tortured man. In living his own pain, he can't grasp that Sarah's love is something that can lift his burdens. I was surprised with the revelations at the end. A very good read!
