As a teen Squire had a big crush on Kelly, his sister best friend. He even asked her to her prom, but his heart was broken when she didn't even respond to his proposal. Now ten years later Kelly is back in his life and Squire still loves her just us much as he did back then, but she didn't want him then, how can she even want him now.

A lot has happened to Kelly in ten years. She fell for her boss, married him and then found out his was cheating on him and divorced him. Now she's back home and has a chance to work for the ranch she used to love spending time at as a kid. For her first assignment Kelly needs to help the owner's son, Squire, find missing money from the ranch before the ranch goes bankrupt.

Description:
Do Squire and Kelly have enough patience and faith to make their second chance possible?

After his deployment, injured and discharged Major Squire Ackerman returns to Three Rivers Ranch, anxious to prove himself capable of running the cattle operation so his parents can retire.

She’s back in town with her four-year-old son, living in her parent’s basement until she can get her life back together. With fresh ink on her divorce papers and open gashes on her heart, she’s not ready for much beyond her new job on the ranch.

Squire wants to forgive Kelly for ignoring him a decade ago. He’d like to provide the stable life she needs, but with old wounds opening and a ranch on the brink of financial collapse, it will take patience and faith to make their second chance possible.

For fans of inspirational western romance authors Kimberly Krey, Becky Wade, and Denise Hunter.

Romance Book Review: Aimee Easterling's Shiftless: Werewolf Paranormal Fantasy

Author: Aimee Easterling
Series Connection: Wolf Rampant
ISBN-13: 978-1497382756
Genre: Paranormal Romance, Werewolf Romance, Sweet Romance
Publisher: Wetknee Books

Purchase Link: Amazon

Terra left her pack 10 years earlier with no plans to ever return again. She and her father, alpha of the pack, had never gotten along and when she got the chance to escape she took it just like her older sister had before her.

When her father catches up with her, he tells her that he wants an heir and if she doesn't bring him  her nephew than he will take her and she will have to provide him with an heir. 

Not knowing what else to do, Terra goes to meet her nephew and is surprised to see that the a local wolf is someone she has met before. 

This is the first story for author Aimee Easterling and was a good start to the Wolf Rampant series. If you are one to love erotic werewolf romance, you won't find anyone here, but still the romance between Terra and Wolfie works out well. Despite the fact that the book is well written I would have like a little more time between the two. While there is a spark there it didn't really have time to turn into the flame that would have made the two perfect for each other. 


Description:
PMS is no fun for werewolves.

Forget the full moon, female werewolves shift uncontrollably at that time of the month. But after years of practice, teenaged Terra learns to squash her wolf, which allows her to flee the repressive village where she grew up.

A decade later, Terra realizes she has an even worse problem. After hiding from her wolf for so long, she is now shiftless, unable to change back into canine form.

When her father shows up with an ultimatum, Terra knows she'll have to learn to shift or return to her place in her family's pack. Will Wolfie, a nearby alpha who's more wolf than man, be a stumbling block in Terra's quest to maintain her freedom?

As Terra struggles to escape two werewolf packs that seem poised to suck her back in, the real question becomes --- does she really want to stay away?
