Wow, what an excellent beginning to a new series that will take us on a journey with a household of orphaned girls, all named after flowers. I loved the story, the interaction between the two main characters, Chance, and Rose. This story holds just enough mystery, suspense, and romance to keep the pages turning.
The plot held me captive with some nice twists and turns. The dialog was witty and heartwarming. Chance is an alpha male but doesn't try to squelch the feisty, fiery side of Rose; it's part of what he finds enduring about her. Instead, he lassoes her and enjoys the ride. These two have their share of angst, but also a steamy passion that sizzled the pages when they come together.
Spurs & Satin WILD AND CRAZY
I loved the chemistry between Hyacinth Lenox and Jackson Reed, the way he is so compassionate and gentle, sensing her hesitancy in any type of relationship. He forces her to meet him twice a day and engages her in a shocking and erotic manner for coaxing her to open up, share her fears, and then to teach her desires between man and wife.
The plot kept me captivated and the pages turning with their beautiful love story, full of passion and emotions. Both have something in their past haunting them, but together they will heal those wounds and work on a future. I love this series by Vanessa Vale; her characters each have their distinct personality, and she writes where you can feel their emotions, their passion and also envision the steamy sex scenes that sizzle off the pages. Each of these books can read as a standalone.
Reins & Ribbons YOU ARE THE MOST IRRATIONAL, ILLOGICAL AND HAREBRAINED WOMAN I HAVE EVER MET
The relationship and chemistry between Garrison Lee and Dahlia Lenox are explosive, erotic, and even heartwarming. They have known each other since she was five-years-old, and he was twelve, and he put a snowball down her coat. They were constantly trying to one-up each other over the years, but now they are both adults. No matter how many times Garrison has asked Dahlia to marry him, she has turned him down, but there are secrets that she must keep hidden.
The plot kept me captivated with mystery and suspense, attempted murder, a feisty woman defying social convention and playing cards, and a dominant alpha male who is determined to win the woman he loves, even if it is a gamble. He is just the man to keep track and take control of her impulsive behavior and ground her, so she doesn’t feel the need to wander. The story is explicit with sizzling sex scenes between two people who love each other and aren’t afraid to explore their mutual desires. The spankings are all well deserved. Each of the Wildflower of Montana stories covers one of the adopted daughters but incorporates the other sisters.
Brands & Bows SHE HAS BEEN CHASING AFTER ME UNTIL I TURNED AROUND AND CAUGHT HER
Daisy Lenox is considered a Bluestocking; she has a thirst for knowledge, especially of the sciences. Dr. Ethan James has deep dark secrets that he has been trying to keep secret. He doesn’t judge by the color of a person’s skin and has been treating the Indians. Seeing Daisy in the mercantile helping an Indian named Red Bear, he gains respect for her.
When her curiosity nearly gets her killed during a winter storm, and he must treat her for days, to protect the Indian tribe, they marry and must keep it a secret as to where they have been. Ethan and Daisy have insatiable chemistry that is wet, carnal, dark, and wild together. She may have a Bluestocking mind, but together, they are carnal, and she is so responsive to his dominance that Ethan realizes she is just what he’d been searching for his whole life but never knew he needed. This is a highly erotic romance with explicit language and steamy sex scenes.
Lassos & Lace I MIGHT BE THE ONE IN CHARGE, BUT YOU’RE THE ONE WITH ALL THE POWER
Lily Lennox has left home to work under a Doctor, but he won’t let her go on calls, hiring a Doctor to work with him, leaving her to pursue other avenues. She has many secrets, including working at a butcher shop, honing her skills with a knife. She suddenly meets Jack Matthews as he rescues her from a stagecoach barreling down the street towards her. It is an instant attraction for both of them and marriage the next day with erotic unbridled lust and passion. Throw in secrets, outlaws, undercover work, train and bank robberies along with a missing groom. Lily is a smart lady and not the only detective in the family, but will her impetuous tendencies land her in serious trouble?
The plot of this story kept me captivated, and the pages turning as Lily and Jack meet, marry, including their erotic encounter that sizzles the pages. The dialog is course, crass and honest. This story will read well as a standalone, and unlike the others, we don’t see Lily’s sisters since she is staying in another town.
Note: These books were originally released as Wildflowers Of Montana.
What all the Lenox sisters need is the right man in charge of each of them. However, this does not come easily to the clearly clever and independent young Lenox ladies. The men know what they want, but have to work hard convincing these ladies that this is what they want and need too!!
5 stories of 5 sisters meeting their husbands. Some very hot sexy times here. All the stories happen pretty quick. They meet, get married and proceed to the wedding night. Some things come up but all is resolved for happily ever after
Finally a series I don't want to end. I love the characters, plots, time period and of course the sex and romance. I really am looking forward to reading more by this author and others like her.
I liked it, short and hot stories that is well written and easy to read. No unnecessary descriptions of surroundings The storyline is good and progresses nicely to a happy ending in each story If you like steamy stories I recommend this.
Set of books regarding adopted sisters in the Wild West. Each meet their own Dom and are introduced to sex and bdsm in various degrees. Felt like some repetitive scenes within each story but overall okay read.
Enjoyed each of the books. The ladies found their men and their men loved, cherished and protected them. It was exciting to follow each of the stories to see how they all got their happy ever after.
Each story in this series told of 7 girls who were adopted by former brothel owners and how each met her man and married him. These stories were exciting and creative.
Five books about five different sisters. I really liked this box-set about eight orphaned girls being raised on a ranch by two former brothel owning sisters. The stories are steamy & all have spanking. Overall I enjoyed each story!
