This is the first book in this series that I read and I will say that I enjoyed it so much! I am going back and reading the other five and this one again simply because I felt I needed everyone else’s stories as well. You can easily read this on its own though.

Dev was beaten by his family and has had to learn to live life differently. His outlook on his life is what many people who suddenly find themselves crippled. He works the ranch and figures that is all there will be. Sarah, is his best friend and works on the ranch next door.

Sarah wants a baby and convinces Dev to help her with that. Sarah was so great! She just pushed her way into Dev’s life and decided she was going to give him things he didn’t think he could have regardless of how much he pushed her away. She told him she was going to raise their child alone but always hoped that he would step up and be the man they needed. The man that she knew was always still in there.

The suspense was so good! All in all this book made me want to read the others as this is the end of the series. I need all the backstories now. It has also made me a Nicole Helm reader!
