Ratings and reviews

I loved this book! I'm a sucker for western romances but maisey yates is one of my favorites. I won't describe the book because she does a great job of breaking down the need to know basics of her characters. the ONLY thing that I didn't like was the repetitious description of why characters thought a certain way or reacted a certain way. To be fair, I've read a lot of books (100s). Across the board though, I got a chance to fall in love with this story and see a lot of different levels of how life can be unfair but how love can conquer fears. She touches on quite a few hard topics but I love the different ways she can tell a story and convey some really complex emotions very accurately and in a simple enough manner that practically anyone can understand and some of us can even relate. Fantastic Read! by an amazing author who never disappoints ME.

Maisey Yates wrote an intense, emotional, amazing love story in The Hero of Hope Springs, part of her Gold Valley series. For as long as Ryder Daniels has known free spirit Sammy Marshall she has been his sunshine. She and her bright smile has saved him after losing his parent and has given him the strength to take care of his orphaned family. It was a lot, especially emotionally, for an eighteen year old, ready to fly from the nest, to deal with. Only Ryder knows that the person Sammy appears to be is an act; she is vulnerable and broken. He has kept his attraction for his best friend a secret for years. Sammy loves living a bohemian, arty life style and came to Hope Springs to escape the abuse from her father and lack of protection and love from her mother. There she found a home and a family that loved her. Yet, all this time, Sammy believes something is missing from her life and asks Ryder to help her. She soon learns that asking Ryder to father a child with her is complicated; especially when the heat between them ignites a spark, setting off fireworks. Not to mention the sizzling chemistry and electricity pouring off them. As potent as Ryder is, you know he will get Sammy pregnant the first time, before she decides to change her mind; which of course happens. Discovering Sammy is pregnant, Ryder informs her he want it all. The fallout from her parents’ abusive relationship, Sammy is fearful of letting Ryder to close. Ryder is going to need a few grand gestures to convince Sammy that he’s not proposing because he feels honor bound. Sammy is going to need to learn to trust herself, her feelings, and Ryder. Ms. Yates wrote a wonderful, intense, emotional and sizzling story that should not be missed. She provided a tale rich with magnetism, chemistry, and charming characters giving Ryder and Sammy a chance to find that happily ever after. I highly recommend The Hero of Hope Springs to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

wonderful book.
