About this ebook

New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Diana Palmer is back in Wyoming with a tale of love born in Big Sky Country…

Billionaire oilman Blair Coleman has always taken care of his business. After having been used and cast aside by a woman he thought he loved, his personal life is far from his first priority. He knows only one has ever truly cared for him—but the irresistible blonde beauty is the daughter of his best friend.

Niki Ashton has seen her father’s friend wounded and she’s seen him fight. Blair is the strongest—and most stubborn—man she’s ever known. That very heart and passion makes him the man of her dreams, but whenever they’ve been in danger of getting close, Blair has always pushed her away.

It takes a possible tragedy to strip away all of Blair’s misgivings. Now it’s all or nothing: marriage, baby, family, forever. But will the choice be too much for Niki…or too late?

Ratings and reviews

Wyoming Rugged is book # 5 in Diana Palmer's Wyoming Men series. I was excited to get started on this book. The blurb about the book really interested me, maybe it is because the storyline reminds me of my husband and myself and the fact that we have a 15 year age difference between the two of us. Niki and Blair had known each other for years. Blair, the friend of Niki's father, would never admit he was attracted and harbored more than friendly feeling towards his friends daughter. Niki has had a crush on Blair since she was in her late teens. Even though there is a mutual attraction between the two, Blair is constantly pushing Niki away because of the 16 year age difference. There are several instances where you think these two are finally going to open their eyes to what is in front of them only to have the author rip it away. In the end, the two finally open themselves up to the love they share for each other. Unfortunately, this story did not leave me wanting more. I usually like Diana Palmer's books however I found this book lacking in both the storyline and the characters. I received an eARC of the book compliments of the publisher for my honest review and opinion. All ratings and opinions stated are my own.

I tried so hard to like this story. Am normally a fan of Ms. Palmer's works but this one I just could not get into. The story dragged on, the characters whined and I just did not find the plot very interesting. Huge disappointment. I received an ARC of Wyoming Rugged in exchange for an honest review. Even a favorite author can write a dud sometimes.

Another Great Read from Diana Palmer, She always delivers great characters & makes you feel like you are part of the story...
