Small Town Romance
Dove Donoghue can’t remember the last time she had spoken with her grandpa. Imagine her surprise when she suddenly inherits his old horse farm. She leaves her busy city life and goes to Heart's Peak, Colorado. She planned to take care of business, not to find the love of her life. Her next door neighbor, Burley Johnson, is tall, broad and every bit of the word sexy. But there’s a darkness hiding behind those chocolate brown eyes. He warns her to stay away from him, but when a flame ignites, you need more than a warning to stop it from spreading...
Burley Johnson’s life changed a year ago. He did something bad. Something unforgivable. Now, he lives with the consequences. When Old Man Bennett’s granddaughter shows up on the farm, Burley never expected to find a light in all the darkness. But there’s something about that Dove. Her smile is contagious. Her beauty breathtaking. She says she doesn’t care about his past... but Burley knows it’s only a matter of time before it comes back to haunt him. When you’re trapped so far under water, not even a light can save you.
Can Dove really overlook Burley’s dark past? And what will happen when Dove finds herself with a secret of her own?
Teresa on Amazon wrote:Sweet story with just the right amount of love, anguish, steam and redemption. I loved this story and can't wait to read the next book in the series!!
Nannette on Amazon wrote:Awesome book! Had me hooked with the first paragraph! Easy to read and hard to put down. Love, romance and, best of all, set on a horse ranch! Can't wait to read the next book!
Rebecca on Amazon wrote:Redemption has all the elements I like in a steamy romance: the troubled leading man, the conflicted female lead, the “will they or won’t they” tease, not to mention a rural setting complete with horses. If you’re in the mood for an easy read with spice, this is the book for you.
Aiden on Amazon wrote:This story begins with one of my deepest fantasies: An out of the blue inheritance. And not just any, but a horse farm. The two main characters take turns center stage. Dove, the skinny jeans wearing, NYC girl sometimes plays lead. Alternating chapters focus on Burley, a smoldering farm hand who is handy in every way. Burley has a truck and a past. I loved the background of the farm and the animals. Working through your fears is a theme that I really love to read, and Dove and Burley help each other along the way. Hot Chocolate just got hotter! Five stars!!!!
Stephanie on Goodreads wrote:If you're looking for a little small town romance this is the book for you!
Burley is HOT & gruff, the perfect combo.
Decided to give this one a shot and glad I did. The story is fast paced and lets you in the minds of the characters without giving away everything too quickly (and without bogging you down in backstory). Super fun and sexy story. (The sex scenes are crazy steamy). And loved how the epilogue sets up Book 2 which I will definitely be reading!
