A sweet, clean Western Romance in which anger and pridefulness get all tangled up as Meg and Clayton get caught in what appears to be a compromising situation playing cat and mouse and are forced to marry. Sparks fly as these two strangers try to work out their lives and gat caught up in a game of one-upmaship until disaster strikes. It can be painful when God stretches you to make you grow, but he never pulls you past the breaking point.

Loved the story, but too many typos!
I'm giving this book only three stars because of all the typos. Although miss Rome is one of my favorite authors I was very surprised at how this book was edited. Story was lovely though. Can't wait to read the next in the series. I hope the editing is better in the next one.

Meg first impression with the way he dressed all in black and white was that of a court jester. She decided from the first he was stuck on himself with his southern charm not to like him. They clashed from the beginning, with a spark and a wink the Love has.begun. A good western story with a mixture of different families running a ranch. Filled with laughter to enjoy.

Frustrating to read.
I have read several books written by this author but why isn't anyone editing them. The others had grammatical and punctuation errors but this one, by far, had the most. Hundreds and hundreds of errors throughout the book. It is very frustrating to read something like this.

Lack of Proofreading a Problem
I enjoy the series but having to pause to figure out what is trying to be said can get wearying. I'm hoping that Uncle Jedediah has found twins for the twins.

She didn't give him a chance and condemned him at first glance
He had lost everything and he thought she was a snob. When she almost lost him She realized he was what she wanted and loved.

I love this series. I love the characters. I love the way Danni takes us right to the Broken J ranch with her detailed descriptions of the setting and surroundings. I could go on and on,but if I do that I will not get to the next book in this great series.

Anger with stubbornness
Clayton arrives carrying a great deal of anger and resentment not really knowing what to expect. Meh is full of dreams and misjudged Clay. Fireworks in this book.

Meg has a plan for her life. To travel and see things. Clayton just wants to find himself after suffering so much loss in his life. Can two such opposites really attract? I enjoyed the story, it was one I couldn't put down!

Another great read
Danni Roan brings us another surprise package in the form of cocky cowboy who starts off on the wrong foot with Meg. It's a rocky ride to love.

I don't like the cover of this version of the book it makes it look like there's a lot of in depth romance but there isn't any at all it is a nice clean romance.
