The adjective to describe Britt is spunky! She doesn't take guff from anyone and when she and Joel get off on the wrong foot it's all uphill! Joel makes assumptions based on what he sees without bothering to get to know Britt and finding out the truth. She lets him because she's coming off a bad relationship and on shaky ground in the whole men and trust areas! It was refreshing to see them give each other a chance and Britt discovers Joel's not as critical as she first thought and JOel comes to respect Britt for the choices she's made. A great story by Stacey Joy and I'm looking forward to the next one in the series about Gina! I’ve always been a horse lover so what could be better than a story about a horse wrangler and a park ranger.When a poacher starts killing animals in the park, Ranger Joel Morgan is brought in to track him down. His first brush with trouble isn’t the poacher, it’s sassy horse wrangler, Brittany Lucas.Brittany is camping in the park, enjoying some alone time when she awakens to a strange man snooping around her camp. Recalling the warnings of a poacher, her guard goes up. When the dust settles, she ends up sharing her tent with Ranger Joel. He won’t leave her alone in the park, and with heavy snows coming, they have to wait til morning to head out.The sparks from the camp fire are nothing compared to the ones that occur between Brittany and Joel. The attraction is strong but both have assumed things about the each that have them battling wits.I enjoy character driven novels and the author has many in this book. Brittany is kind and gentle, but also independent and strong-willed.Joel is hard-headed, determined, and not easy to brush off.The other characters lend support to the main ones, filling out friendships and giving us some suspects.Right away I had two characters pegged as possible bad guys. The poacher wasn’t just into making money. His lust for blood was becoming a need and I didn’t think animals would satisfy him for long.As the attraction between Joel and Britt built, so did the suspense and danger from the poacher. Brittany is now his target and while most of the time, the author doesn’t kill off a main character, you just never know.It’s always fun to read how the characters meet, how their assumptions screw things up, and they fight the growing attraction. I grinned a lot, laughed too, and shook my head as Britt and Joel made a mess of things.I especially enjoyed reading about Britt and Gypsy. The ranch owner purchased Gypsy because no one else wanted her. She was out of control and dangerous. When he asked Britt to try to gentle the wild mare, she rose to the challenge and that’s where she really showed her stuff as did the author. You could feel the excitement, but you had to be patient, just like Britt. Whatever turned Gypsy into a raging inferno didn’t happen overnight.Beautiful scenery of Colorado, a blistering romance, and danger came together in a really good mystery/romance that kept me turning the pages, enjoying the ride.I received this book for my honest review.
