About this ebook

New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan's follow-up to Waiting on a Cowboy in the exciting new McGrath series.

Meet New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan’s McGraths: a family as untamed as the land they call home.

Skye Kennedy has always loved the close-knit community of Sunrise Fellowship—but when she witnesses the commune’s new leader commit a terrible crime, she flees…and finds herself in Montana, on the McGrath ranch, and drawn to the stoic yet kind man determined to help her.

Declan McGrath has always handled things himself and focused more on work than his love life. With his newlywed brothers distracted by their beautiful wives, Declan has even more work on his hands. But when Skye arrives at the ranch starving and desperate for work, his loner days are over.

Skye wants to keep her distance and protect Declan from the deadly threats facing her, but soon their relationship morphs into something much more than either of them expected. When she fights back against those out to destroy Sunrise Fellowship, Skye and Declan will have to do everything to protect not just Skye's community, but also their new love...

Ratings and reviews

Intense, gritty, addictive romantic suspense story! The opening scene - where Skye witnesses a crime - was admittedly hard to read, but only because it was so very well written. Fleeing for her life, Skye hits the road and eventually lands at Declan's family ranch. Declan is the perfect hero for her, strong and steady yet he respects her enough to help her solve her problem rather than just taking over to fix everything himself. Skye's family ties to the criminal operation she's trying to dismantle really complicates the case, but the writing is perfectly balanced to make it clear how these kinds of situations can sneak into even the most idyllic utopias. There are plenty of passionate and romantic scenes, interspersed with the intense action and suspense developments, all leading to a very satisfying HEA that has both Skye and Declan taking the necessary time to make sure their path ahead is exactly what they want it to be. I really appreciated the care and respect shown to all aspects of both characters, making this a truly unforgettable story. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

LOVED this book! I couldn't put this one down and stayed up way too late to finishing it. I loved the characters - Declan is a hunky and lonely cowboy, just working his ranch, when Skye shows up in desperate need. He takes her in, and, before long, she's sparked his interest and his heart. Skye escaped from a commune after witnessing a terrible murder, along with a whole host of other crimes. She ran because the local police have a relationship with the commune's leader, covering up his various crimes. The romance between Skye and Declan was sexy and sweet, even as it was quickly put to the test when the bullets started flying. I found myself engrossed in their story and wanting them to get their HEA ending. Near the end, their were times I wanted to reach into the pages and tell Skye her priorities were off and that she wasn't responsible to fix everything, however, even that was consistent with who Skye was. If you enjoy sexy cowboy romantic suspense, you will love this book. Put this one at the top of your TBR list. The author has quickly become one of my favorites and is on my must read authors' list.

AGood read
