Product Description

Attorney Mackenzie “Mac” Standfield swore off love when her heart was shattered into a million pieces. But there’s one man who has managed to tempt her beyond reason—rodeo star Luke Madaris. Although five years have passed, Mac discovers when she runs into Luke again that the sexual tension is just as charged as ever…

When Luke gets injured in a rodeo, he knows the only place where he can recuperate—without being smothered by his worried family—is at Mac’s place. After all, like Mac, he has no interest in any romantic entanglements….until being in such close quarters with Mac forces Luke to confront a desire he can no longer fight…

With each passing day, Mac and Luke come to realize that their smoldering attraction can be put out only if they surrender to it. But what Mac doesn’t realize is that once you give yourself to a Madaris man, there’s no turning back…

Another Madaris Hit!! Book as usual was great. I really like Mackenzie Stanfield and well Lucas Madaris, what can I say-he a "Madaria". The chemistry between them was hot!hot!hot!. Great to catch up on other Madaris family and friends, Mama Laverne was a mess as usual, Great story, steady read- Read it in 5 hours!!! Can't wait for cousin Blade in 2010!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars SIMPLY HOT!!!, September 14, 2009

By	Heirtothethrone "Sphinx3" (Detroit USA) - See all my reviews

Brenda Jackson has done it again. Once again she's given us another sexy Madaris man. Every girl should have one! What can I say? Luke Madaris makes me want to go rodeo watching. I love how this story gives us a look inside the rodeo circuit and a brief history of the contribution of african american cowboys without taking away the romance of the story. Although Luke Madaris was dedicated to his dream as a rodeo rider, and was disciplined in his profession, I loved how "Mac" was able to take him on a wild ride, that was only meant to happen once, and stole his heart in the process. I say thumbs up to this book, I have read it twice already and although I have a number of Brenda Jackson's books (that have been re-read!), I am looking forward to reading it again.
