To solve the case…
He'll steal her heart
Special Ranger Bodie Hopson arrives in Three Springs, Texas, to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a bison herd belonging to the strong-willed farmer Sarah Rickelle. Posing as a new ranch hand, Bodie suspects she's an insurance fraudster, but then quickly realizes she's more of an ally than a criminal. As they join forces to track down the thief, their growing attraction makes it difficult to stay professional. But when the case takes a dangerous turn, Bodie faces a life-changing decision: follow his law enforcement career or fight for the woman who’s stolen his heart.

EXCERPT:
Bodie parked his motorcycle beside her truck, turned, and headed right for her. As if he was in a hurry to return to her.
Thump. There it was. That sudden race in her pulse. That flushin her face. All over again.
Same as she’d felt when Bodie had lifted his sunglasses earlier, revealing his impossibly blue—yet oddly haunting—eyes. Paired with his brooding manner, he had fairly poked an audible sigh right out of her. Worse, when he had cradled Rover protectively against his chest, an adorably perplexed look on his face, Sarah had wanted to hold onto him. She still did.
Bad luck there. The one cowboy to pique her interest in far too long was her employee.
But blurring the boss-employee boundaries would only burden her already teetering too-full plate. Besides, she did not have the bandwidth to navigate a relationship right now. And her goal list certainly did not include another bruised heart.
So, there would be absolutely no embracing her cowboy. Now. Or later.

MY REVIEW:
🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
An engaging story of overcoming past disappointments and breaking through to live a future of love, family, and fulfilled dreams . . .
Special Ranger Bodie Taylor is assigned to investigate the disappearance of a number of bison belonging to farmer Sarah Rickelle. The Ranger suspects that Sarah is guilty of insurance fraud, and he needs to get close to the operation to investigate the situation fully.
Bodie poses as a ranch hand and is able to secure a job offer from Sarah. He's smart and hard-working, but his lack of experience working on a farm is quickly discovered by Grandma Rose—Sarah's grandmother and owner of the farm.
As Sarah and Bodie work together, their relationship changes from boss-employee to a friendship based on mutual respect and dedication to figuring out the mystery of her missing bison.
The mystery in this story was intricate and well-written. There were many twists and turns as Bodie struggled to solve the case along with Sarah's help. The tension between the couple escalates when details of the bison thefts come to light.
Another of my favorite aspects of the story involved Sarah's soft heart for rescued animals. Readers will meet some of her delightful rescues—miniature donkeys Tansy and Pepper, piglets Gladys and George, canine Mav, and Rover and his twelve duckling siblings. As a reader, I feel animals always add an element of tenderness to the cast of characters, and Sarah is an exceptionally-caring animal lover.
My favorite character was the mischievous, witty Grandma Rose. This dynamic woman is a cowgirl from her hat to her boots, and she is well-respected and beloved by everyone in her hometown. This woman made me laugh out loud throughout the story. She was funny even when she wasn't trying to funny! Rose and Sarah have a close relationship, and they rely on one another to keep things in the positive realm at their farm.
The story is completely clean in language and content. I received a copy of the book from the author through JustRead Publicity Tours. All of my thoughts and opinions shared here are solely my own.
