Stone was betrayed by his ex-fiancé and has sworn to never trust another female with his heart. When he meets Amber he finds himself drawn to her. He wants to help her, but will not risk another betrayal. So he comes up with a solution that will help them both, a marriage of convenience. It will give Amber and her babies a safe home and he can get the funds needed to improve the ranch, without the complications of love. What he doesn’t realize is keeping his hands off her will be harder than he could have ever imagined and not losing his heart, impossible.

Sandra Kay has written a great story that draws the reader in from the beginning and keeps them there with her ability to bring her characters to life. She makes this a keeper. The banter and arguments between Amber and Stone are at times so funny. The story is definitely never boring. Stone is such a sweet caring man, but at times I found myself wanting to shake him, to make him see what is right in front of his face. And Amber is such a strong little person who is determined to succeed no matter what. But the secondary characters play such an intricate part of this story, it just wouldn't be the same without each of them to add the layers that brings this family to life. I would recommend this one to anyone who loves a great romance and I hope there will be more to come from this family as they all deserve their happily ever after.
