This book unlike others from Ms Mello that I've read, was poorly written. The story seemed to jump from one plot to another, missing several important connecting details.
The chemistry between the main characters was believable.

A WHIRLWIND romantic treat...Travis Stallion is AMAZING...I so LOVE a man that knows what he wants or in this case should I say WHO he wants...and he RELENTLESSLY pursues Tierra Braddy...talk about SWEEPING a girl off her feet...another CHARMING addition to the Stallion series...now I'm EAGERLY awaiting Matthew Stallion's story.

This was such a great story of Tierra and Travis that I had to read it twice. Love at first sight is a great thing and I am glad that Travis didn't give up but also that Tierra stopped being scared. It happened fast but sometimes those make the best relationships but only if both parties are able to embrace what is happening and not try to over analyze everything!

Loving the Stallion men so far. This is cousin Travis and Tierra Brady's story. Travis comes home on leave, and is entrusted with a letter to deliver Tierra by her "fiancée".
Little does Travis know that he is delivering a letter that will break her heart. I love their interaction and how Travis tries to comfort her.
