About the author
Bronwyn Jameson
159 books25 followersBestselling and award-winning author Bronwyn Jameson grew up on an Australian farm where she developed a lifelong love of animals and the written word. Happily she was able to marry the two working as a rural journalist before a magazine article introduced her to Romance Writers of Australia and the possibility of a new career writing the books she loved to read.
After five years, a handful of contest wins and an equal number of rejections from Harlequin Mills & Boon, Bronwyn received the phone call all aspiring novelists dream of: Leslie Wainger at Silhouette Books wanted to buy the manuscript she'd judged in the Romance Writers of New Zealand Clendon Award.
Silhouette Desire published In Bed With The Boss's Daughter in July 2001. Since then Bronwyn has continued to write take-to-bed romance for Desire, winning contests such as The Aspen Gold, The Write Touch Readers' Award and the Anne Bonney Readers' Choice. In 2006 she was a triple RITA finalist with her Princes of the Outback trilogy and a nominee for the Romantic Times Series Storyteller of the Year.
As well as strong Australian heroes and spirited heroines, her stories feature all kinds of animals including an energetic Border Collie named Mac, a jet black racehorse named Stella, an attack cat named Gizmo, a talking pony nicknamed Mini Ed, a bitzer named Digger, a Russian Blue named Tolstoy…well, you get the picture.
She still loves animals and the written word. Her home is still a farm in the Australian heartland, which she shares with her husband and three sons, a thousand sheep, half a dozen horses, three dogs, an echidna and a wallaby.

Labai aistringas meilės romanas. Gali nepatikti tik paskutinių madų besivejančioms moterims.

This is Book #1 of Goodwin Siblings. This is the story of Zane and Julia.
Zane is the proverbial "bad boy". He has always dreaded returning to his hometown. He dreads the whispered comments, the looks of disapproval. He usually moves on once it gets under his skin.
Julia is known as the "goodie-two-shoes" in town. She dislikes this reputation. She sees Zane and all the attraction she once held for him resurfaces. Zane thinks she is the type of girl who would never be interested in the likes of him.
I love the way Julia helps Zane realize that he needs to "stand up" for what he wants and prove that he isn't the boy he was, but a man. I love the way Zane sees the "wild-side" of Julia and lets her reveal it to him and herself.
I enjoyed their story. It was a fast-paced read for me.

There's something about the bad boy who feels he has to prove himself that is so appealing. Returning to his hometown is something Zane always dreads, the disapproving looks and the whispered comments only make him itch to move on again. Julia's also got a rep in the town that she'd love to shed, that of the goody two shoes, a girl who'd never give the likes of Zane the time of day. Hah! With their sizzling attraction, these two ignite the pages with their chemistry. I loved how Julia was able to give Zane a different picture of their hometown, and how Julia discovered within herself the strength to fight for what she wanted. This was a page turner! Great HEA!

Nice of predictable.

The beginning is great. So is the setting, plot and characters. Each clearly defined and easily recognisable. Yet I couldn't quite engage with the characters as a romance.
