About this ebook

Activist Emily Sullivan left her fulfilling job in the Peace Corps to save her family's ranch from bankruptcy. Her dream is to use renewable energy because conservation and education are her passion. Unfortunately, her parents believe there's a greater profit allowing hunting tours to cull the local wild species. Emily vows to change their mind.

Donovan Link doesn't stay in one place or with one job too long. This cowboy turned hunter is determined that the hunting lodge he built on the Three Sisters ranch will give him a nice nest egg so he could retire to Alaska, where the game is plentiful and his incarcerated father can never find him.

When these two opposites clash, sparks fly. Donovan sees Emily as a sabotaging eco-warrior and she sees him as a soulless trophy hunter. But they need to work together to keep the Three Sisters ranch in the black and fighting with each other — and falling in love — complicates an already impossible situation.

Remarkable job Jamie, thanks for sharing this little treasure with us.

Fabulous opposites attract, hate/love romance! Emily and Donovan couldn't be more different. He's a hunter with a shady family history and a lease to hunt feral hogs and wild game on Three Sisters Ranch. Emily's a vegetarian eco-activist trying to prove herself useful on her family's ranch while also wanting to steer them into more humane practices. These two start off getting in each other's hair and on each other's nerves, but it doesn't take long for all that intense chemistry to explode into an unexpected romance. As we saw in the first book, the ranch has fallen on hard times and it's going to take some creative maneuvering to put the ranch back on a profitable path. Each of the sisters is bringing her own unique set of talents and interests to the table as the family sorts through what works and what doesn't. This captivating story includes a balanced approach to controversial topics and a deep respect for family, traditions, and the environment as the realistic situations force both Donovan and Emily to reevaluate their goals and priorities. Finding their soul mates in the last place they'd ever look made for a sweet love story, one that I enjoyed so much I couldn't put it down. It's a terrific story that covers a lot of ground and gives us an innovative HEA. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Emily and Donovan are total opposites so this makes for an entertaining read especially with the things Emily does to Donovan after she first get back to the farm. I really liked Emily's drive and ambition to keep the farm going but you do get disheartened along with Emily when no one really sees how much she wants to take over the farm and make it even better for everyone. This is a good read about opposites attract, compromise, believing in your dream and that nothing is ever easy but if you want it enough you find a way. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
