About this ebook

The sexy, sweet new novel by the national bestselling author of Want You More “shows that love and romance can occur in the most unexpected situations” (Publishers Weekly).

Colorado’s gorgeous Rocky Mountains set the stage for a breathtaking tale of small-town heart and big-time passion . . .

As the oldest of three brothers, Shane Tyler takes his responsibility to the family ranch seriously—and it’s clear to him that the younger man who wants to marry his widowed mother is only looking for a meal ticket. He’s determined to stop the nuptials whatever it takes, but the shy wedding planner his mom hired is harder to intimidate than he expected. 
 
When Cora Preston worked up the nerve to leave her abusive ex and move with her young son to Gracely, it was a huge step. Accepting the position as wedding planner at brand-new Mile High Weddings took even more courage. But Cora’s biggest challenge is turning out to be the bride’s handsome—and stubborn—oldest son, Shane, and the way the strong-willed cowboy makes her feel. Can the heat crackling between them warm two hearts suspicious of love?

Ratings and reviews

The Mile High series continues as we move down the mountain and meet some of the fine people of Gracely, Colorado. Shane Tyler grew up in Gracely on his family ranch. He's the oldest of the family so when his father passed away he took over responsibility for the ranch and his family. No way will he let some smooth talker come in and con his mother out of anything! Cora Preston is new to Gracely. She was brave enough to leave her abusive ex and start over in Gracely. No way will she let some gruff cowboy derail her from planning his mother's perfect wedding. Enjoy the ride as these two butt heads over the wedding and fight the attraction between them. Love is definitely in the air!

Oh My Word this is a book I can so relate too. Large family with a dad who passes when some of the kids are younger in age. One of the sibling steps up to help the Mom raise the other kids. Shane is THAT person in this situation. Most of the other siblings work along side him on the Ranch. His mom is getting re-married after years of being a widow. Good and bad...Good as it brings Cora and her son Micah into the picture for everyone to meet the clan. Bad as Ben seem to be the bad penny. He is a ranch hand, 10 years younger than their mom Deb and lazy to boot. Bet you can guess what the kids all think right... What does Ben really want from Deb? This is part of a series (I have read book 1 but not the others until this one) but can def but read as a stand alone. I enjoyed it so much that I decided i need to read books 2 & 3 LOL to catch up.

This was a hard one to rate for me, I was deciding between 3 and four stars. Shane was what pushed it up to 4 stars. Shane was a good hero, and a great man. He did everything he could to help those around him. Cora was what was bringing my opinion of the story down. I understand that she was in a horrible situation, but she was supposed to be in therapy and dealing with things, and she clearly wasn't. She was always taking things the wrong way, second guessing everyone, and taking things out on Shane that didn't have anything to do with him. I felt like she let her 12 year old make decisions for her, and that was no way to be either. I liked all the secondary characters, and even though this is not the first book in the series, I didn't feel like I missed out on anything. I did enjoy the ending, and I was glad that these characters could move past everything and get their HEA. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.
