About this ebook

Two feuding ranchers discover a deep connection in an old silver mine beneath their land in this romance by the New York Times bestselling author.
 
Now that she’s completed her engineering degree, Rachel Ford Morgan is eager to prove herself to her father and four brothers who run Morgan Ranch. She gets the chance when she discovers fault lines around an abandoned silver mine at the edge of their property. But the troublesome mine is nothing compared to the cowboy who seems determined to shake up her world.

Cauy Lymond doesn’t take kindly to the woman nosing around his land—especially since she’s a member of the neighboring Morgan clan. Cauy is determined to keep his father’s failing ranch out of their super-wealthy hands. But he soon realizes that he needs Rachel’s skill—and admirable courage—to shore up the old mine that threatens both their futures. As they pour all of their blood, sweat, and secrets into saving the land, their true feelings for each other begin to surface.

Ratings and reviews

The Rancher by Kate Pearce Morgan Ranch #6 With a meet-cute that was one leaving Cauy and Rachel angry rather than friendly there didn’t seem much hope for the two to find a HEA but they eventually do. Cauy Lymond has had it ingrained into his skull that the Morgan’s are out to get them and to be despised but Cauy soon realizes that perhaps his father was wrong. With a rescue dog, ranch in dire need of repairs, two siblings that may get stories of their own in the future, a couple of dude ranch doofuses, a paternal mystery to solve, family angst and drama to wade through and holidays to enjoy this story packs a punch that kept me reading from beginning to end. The reason for the breakup toward the end was not one of my favorites but all came right in the end. I am eager to read Jackson’s story and hope it will come next. Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington-Zebra for the ARC – This is my honest review. 4 Stars

The Rancher is Book 6 of the Morgan Ranch series. I would have to say this story stands fine on its own but between the backstory which involves Rachel pretty heavily and that all of the characters from the earlier books appear here, I highly recommend reading the others. Ever since Rachel was "found" in the earlier books, I was so looking forward to her story and Ms. Pearce certainly did not disappoint. Cauy was the perfect match for her. Very enjoyable story. Based on the hints in this story, it appears a Book 7 will be coming involving Jackson. I can't wait!

I loved returning to the Morgan Ranch and finally getting Rachel's story. I've been waiting since the start of the series and it didn't disappoint. Her story is rich in family, humor, and unexpected romance. Cuay Lymond is an intriguing character with a sad history but a spirit that won't quit. He and Rachel make a great pair and their story is one you don't want to miss. I highly recommend it.
