Never once was that baby in a car seat. I can go with the bad guy not caring but the hero? Also at the end, they are riding and he has the baby in front of him on a flightly stallion. If you're being that careful you'd ride a more gentle dependable horse and save the stallion for riding alone. And horses don't smell fear although body tenseness will sometimes make them nervous. Okay the story itself - There were places where it lost my interest and I wondered when it would end. Second half was better than the first half. It was an interesting departure to have them marry half way through and still have problems after they admitted their love. I did think she got over her issues with a physical relationship too easily. Like the first time he touched her she came twice? Hmm. I'd think there might be a flashback or too at the very least to deal with. She had been raped for 3 years. I did like that he lost his temper and fought with her. It made him seem more like a real person than many romance heros. I wasn't real fond of the heroine. No particular reason other than I usually like my heroines a little more gutsy than her. I loved the way this book jumped right into the action. Maggie is on the run with her infant son when her path crosses with Rafe, who is grieving for the family he lost and burying himself in alcohol so he doesn't have to feel or care about anything or anyone. This was all about second chances, learning to trust again, and finding love. Initially I worried about being able to suspend belief because the situation felt a little Cinderella-ish...sorta. Rafe pushed a little in the beginning, falling too hard and too fast, taking control and making decisions without consulting Maggie, but the author impressed me. She managed to ease my "insta-love" worries and slow the relationship down without using "The Big Issue That Results In Separation" theme. This couple talked and that aspect was very believable. Things that bugged me: My biggest issue would be that Maggie's emotional recovery seemed a little too sudden. There were other minor issues: Regardless of those issues, I enjoyed the story very much. Rafe was patient and generous to a fault. His family was endearing and I'd gladly date his brother. It was a great story with a HEA. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)
Desperate and determined, Maggie Stanley grabs her small baby and runs into the snowy Idaho night. In her loneliest, blackest hour, she unexpectedly finds a warmth and comfort she has never known in the tender compassion of a handsome, down-and-out stranger. In Rafe Kendrick, Maggie recognizes a soul wounded like her own--though she knows she must never trust any man ever again. Rafe is more than he seems--an enigmatic man of secrets who could give Maggie the moon, had he not vowed to spend his life alone. But sometimes love's flames can transform a cold world into paradise--and a man who's lost nearly everything, a woman who's forgotten how to dream, and the helpless child who needs them both can become that most wondrous creation: a family.
