Another great book in the series "The Three River Ranch". This was just as good as the first 3 books and I hope that she writes more. Even though these are on the tame side, the author does a fabulous job of bringing the characters to life and making you feel what they are feeling. There is passion and romance and a little suspense. This book pulled at the heartstrings and had me on edge the whole time. The writing flowed flawlessly and the plot was very real and the setting that the author describes was just beautiful.

It is amazing what happens when two people grow up together and their feelings change over time. Jonah grew up with Celia and for the longest time she was just his best friends little sister, but then she grew up and now Jonah can't seem to wrap his head around how beautiful she is and how attracted he is to her. I loved reading about his conflicting emotions and just how he dealt with them. I kind of felt sorry for him, he was in Love with his best friends sister, his best friends untouchable sister. Celia sure did chase hard though, she had a crush that stemmed from childhood and just grew stronger when she needed Jonah's help. Both Jonah and Celia have underlying emotional barriers that they need to work through and in working through them a tremendous love for each other blossoms. They have a great chemistry together already and it only grows stronger as their relationship grows throughout the story.

Once again the secondary characters in this book are fantastic, although you don't get to read as much about some of them as you did in previous books, but they are there all the same. I really wonder where the author is going next in the series?

If you have read the other books in the series you have to read this one, if not you need to go and pick up the first book and read them straight through. This has been a delightful story and series to read, all of the books are written with an amazing passion and filled with lots of sweet romance. Loved It!
