Very interesting story. I thought the tie-in with the previous three books in the "The Fortunes of Texas" series was fantastic. I've always love a good mystery/romance book, and this one did a great job combining both! A very heart-warming book. I couldn't put it down until the very end.

This is the first of the Fortune books I've read, so it was pretty confusing with the other stories going on. And I had to
continously look back at the family tree to see what relation
each person had to the main characters of the book.

All in all, I enjoyed this book even though romances are all the same; the woman is too stubborn to realize her true feelings. Then something happens to make her change her views.

In this book, Dallas Fortune is the son of a wealthy family and Maggie is the daughter of the Fortune's housekeeper. After her
husband leaves her Maggie returns home with her [young] son.
Maggie and Dallas fall in love, and after a 'rollercoaster ride'
they form a relationship

I enjoyed this book and I'd recommend it:)

A good book. Romance novels are the same in that the woman is too
stubborn to realize what she needs, and then something happens, and POOF!!! everyone lives happily ever after.

~But as it goes this is a wonderful story and includes both of my favorite things; a child and a dog.

Maggie returns home from a bad marriage with her 5yo son for a short stay. When she meets Dallas Fortune, she tries to resist him and the Fortune name. Eventually they begin a relationship.

As far as romance novels go, this is a good one:)

After reading the first three Fortunes' stories, I really thought that this one was disapointing. I must have put the book down 4 or 5 times AND read books in between! The ending gave a little thrill, but I didn't like Maggie at all! She had no self-esteem or self-confidence! Dallas was a great hero, though a little too pushy for my taste. I've read other books by Jackie Merritt and thought they were great, but this one dragged on for WAY too long!

Lonely cowboy who lost his wife and son years ago sees a beautiful woman and her son. Because she's very beautiful he decides she'll be glad to warm a Fortune's bed and assaults her in her parents own home. She quickly sends him packing for insulting her. The rest of the book is about him convincing her to accept his apology and go out with him. She quickly becomes more to him than a conquest. The only thing I don't like is the constant issue of women sleeping with men not their husbands that seems to be in almost every romance book today.
