What I thought about Rancher After Midnight
I haven't read any of the other books in this series and Rancher After Midnight works well as a standalone.
This was a quick, easy and satisfying romance between two adults -- one of which has a big axe to grind and isn't about to forget it. Heath Thurston is looking for revenge against the people he thinks swindled a family member, but when a survey comes back that leads the investigation in a different direction, he also meets the smart and sexy surveyor, Ruby Bennet.
I adored Ruby. She's such a sweet person and she has Heath's best interest at heart, even when he may not think that's true. But she does manage to get him to think about things differently, and see what's really important.
Overall, a very nice holiday themed romance, with a pleasant heat level and two characters that were fairly easy to relate to at some level. The story moved along quickly, which I really like and the characters both do some growing along the way. It was easy to want them to get their HEA. Win-win.
Karen Booth is a Midwestern girl transplanted in the South, raised on '80s music and repeated readings of Forever by Judy Blume. When she's not writing about dreamy fictional men and the women who test them, she's in the garden, obsessing over college basketball, or spending time with her husband, college-age kids, and bratty cat.
