(This review covers the first 3 books in the series - The Bride, the Wife and the Lover)
I found this book by chance, and although it may be a sensible subject for me (the heroine is 16y and the hero over 20y when the book starts), I gave it a go because the reviews were really good and all consensual. And it was a very good decision because I absolutely loved this book (and all in the Bride series for what matters).

The heroine growth was visible as the plot unfolded, she was strong, smart and very funny. Her love for the ranch and the country life was inspiring. She isn't afraid to fight for what she wants and that's something refreshing in a young adult character. The hero sometimes was a bit oblivious, but you end up loving him as well. The amount of drama was just the necessary to keep you hooked throughout the books of the series until you get the ending of Jake and Ellie story.
The writing is very good! I really don't know how this book doesn't have more reviews. Actually, for a moment, the author made me wanna be a rancher in Montana (and I'm totally a city girl)!
