Occasionally, I crave a sappy western romance and this book was just the item I needed. Following Miller’s previous historical western McKettrick series, this is a new trilogy with contemporary McKettrick alpha males.
Jesse McKettrick is the great great …. grandson of Jeb McKettrick (Secondhand Bride). He is the aimless, pokerplaying, only son badboy. His family has gently urged him to settle down but he just has not found the right woman yet.
Along comes former classmate Cheyenne Bridges. Cheyenne has been in love with Jesse since she was a teenager. She has come back to town to convince Jesse to sell some property to her company. Jesse will not sell, but is interested to see how persuasive Cheyenne will be.
