Description:
Winsome and Romantic--the Perfect Summer Read!
When Meg Cole's
father dies unexpectedly, she becomes the majority shareholder of his
oil company and the single inheritor of his fortune. Though Meg is
soft-spoken and tenderhearted--more interested in art than in oil--she's
forced to return home to Texas and to Whispering Creek Ranch to take up
the reins of her father's empire.
The last thing she has the
patience or the sanity to deal with? Her father's thoroughbred racehorse
farm. She gives its manager, Bo Porter, six months to close the place
down.
Bo's determined to resent the woman who's decided to rob
him of his dream. But instead of anger, Meg evokes within him a profound
desire to protect. The more time he spends with her, the more he longs
to overcome every obstacle that separates them--her wealth, his
unworthiness, her family's outrage--and earn the right to love her.
But
just when Meg begins to realize that Bo might be the one thing on the
ranch worth keeping, their fragile bond is viciously broken by a force
from Meg's past. Can their love--and their belief that God can work
through every circumstance--survive?
My Thoughts:
Happy, happy to read this book! I fell in love with the characters and loved watching them grow and their relationship develop. I think Bo restored my faith in romance and gentlemen! And I'm so happy that Meg wasn't a spoiled brat, but was lovable and sweet in spite of her wealth. Such a perfect summer romance! Love Becky Wade's books! Can't wait to read more!
