Synopsis
Recent college graduate, Graysen Beaufort, resigns herself to two weeks of boredom at a dude ranch honoring her parents’ wishes for one last family vacation.
She doesn't plan on meeting Colt McCord, an irresistible cowboy who threatens to bring disorder to Graysen's ordinarily ordered life.
Dodging an overprotective family, an unwelcome suitor, and certain heartbreak, Graysen struggles to break free of her limitations and submit her heart to Colt’s love. But learning to let go isn't easy, even with a man like Colt.
Colt McCord, White Pine Ranch’s head horse trainer, loves the busy, back-breaking work of a cattle ranch.
But when he meets a beautiful and spirited woman from Iowa, she makes him forget everything he'd known before, and he risks everything to be with her.
Colt is accustomed to breaking horses, but can he tame Graysen’s wild heart before it is too late?
Review
I received Heartbreak Ranch in return for an honest review
as part of the tour hosted by YA Bound Book Tours. Greysen’s vacation plans
didn't include a long road trip, horses or hot guys. After all she wanted to
head to Europe with her friends but thanks to her parents family trip she’s
going to spend two weeks in Wyoming. If only they have cell service she may
just make it the whole two weeks. After a long car ride with her older brother
and teenage sister Greysen is happy to have a real bed to sleep in since the
hotels have been awful.
Arriving at the ranch
her family heads up to the main house after settling in but Greysen sneaks off
for a walk finding a wild horse with a handsome cowboy. Enchanted by the horse
and rider she spies on him around the side of the barn. She returns back to her
family and the party only to be introduced to the cowboy when he joins for a
brief drink. Neither Greysen or Colt can deny the attraction to each other and
what starts off as one crazy night turns into a whirlwind romance. However
while Colt may be happy at the ranch Greysen is a city girl and what happens
after her two weeks are up?
I really like Greysen she’s a sweet innocent girl who needs
to break out of her shell and learn to live. I think Colt is perfect what can I
say sexy guy on a black stallion named Pumpkin. Loved it!!!! The chemistry
between Greysen and Colt is exactly what I like in my steamy romance.
I was enchanted by the concept right from the start since I’m
a horse junky give me a steamy romance with horses I’m sold. The characters are
easy to connect with you can’t help falling for Greysen with her unique name.
Colt is just amazing he had me sold when we first encountered him on Pumpkin. I
love Heartbreak Ranch it’s a fast paced steamy romance that sparks the imagination
and leaves you breathless. I will admit the steamy parts make me blush and
Heartbreak Ranch is no exception or lacking in the steam department but I think
the author wrote them well. The whole book is well written for a debut novel. I
would suggest mature teenager to adults will enjoy this book because it is
steamy.
