THOUGHTS: This was a quick read with lots of emotions, conflict, and a satisfying ending. Brendan and Lucas are great characters who are not made for each other, but they work. I love that Lucas was so easy with Lucas’s son Jameson – and that the 4-year-old calls him the Hulk!

In this story, Brendan has trouble with a vandal at his horse farm. He believes his ex-wife is the perp. Lucas, a bouncer for a bar, is between jobs so comes on as security. With his help, they discover who is causing the problems. And even though Brendan is his “boss”, the two find a deep connection that they can’t deny. At only a hundred pages, this is a quick read and you’ll love the way things turn out.

Recommended.

Blurb: Single father Brendan Marshall is trying to keep life and limb together after his divorce. Having gotten custody of Jameson in a tough custody battle, he’s determined to be the best father he can. However, it seems his ex is not willing to just walk away, even if she isn’t up for mother of the year. When a threat arises to his family horse farm, he realizes he needs help to keep his family safe. Lucas Stone is a bouncer at a happening night club until it closes its doors, and what he needs now is a job. Through a mutual friend, Lucas meets Brendan. He knows nothing about farms, horses, or goats. But what he does know is security, and the fact that there is something about Brendan that gets under his skin… like, way under. Both men are in uneasy territory, but they quickly realize that they need to rely on each other. Brendan comes to learn that Lucas will act in order to keep him and Jameson safe, and Lucas quickly figures out that while country life is different from his past experience, it also has its charm… like the farmer and his amazing son. But just as a relationship begins to build, outside threats could pull everything they care about to pieces.
