About this ebook

Beauty and the tormented beast

Ford Winter, the oldest and according to his siblings, ugliest, is a man with carefully hidden secrets. Outwardly relaxed, laid-back, and happy with life on his family’s ranch, Ford takes comfort in the daily rhythms of his life. Under the surface, however, he is battling with the demons of something he will never share with anyone.

Business takes him from his hometown, and when he finds a desperate woman standing outside his hotel room, clearly in pain, he does what he does best. Steps in to help her. What he doesn’t realize is that life as he knows it, from that moment is about to change forever after their encounter.

Autumn Harris, the sweet new teacher in town and the woman he rescued, is a single mother and way too nice for the likes of him. He doesn’t want nice and sweet, or a relationship, because at night, when the door to his room is closed, often Ford’s life changes for the worse. Plagued with nightmares from an event that changed his life, he never wants anyone to see his demons. Especially not Autumn.

Can their demons be tamed?

Autumn desperately needs a life change, both for herself and her son, Ritchie. So when she reads about a teaching position in Ryker Falls, Colorado, she jumps at the chance. Finally she can escape the man who once held her heart. A man who thinks he can still be part of their lives, despite Autumn’s protests.

The Ryker Falls community welcomes her and Ritchie, wrapping them in a secure blanket of love and support. After the hell that she’s come from, it’s like the best kind of dream come true. Right up until the day she walks into Ford Winter again. He’s the man who tenderly looked after her, the man who showed her such gentle kindness when she’d no one else to turn to. The tall, imposing rancher with the easy smile but shadowed eyes.

Autumn senses something is off with Ford. Something dark is plaguing him, his unspoken demons obvious in his manner and rejection. Autumn is both scared yet drawn to an inward struggle she well recognizes, but she also knows her heart can never be truly his. Not when she has so much at stake.

Can Ford and Autumn heal each other, or will the past that comes calling stop them from finding a future together?

4.5 Stars This is another really good story in this series with lots of appearances by your favorites. You do not need to read the other stories in the series first to enjoy this one. It does stand on its own. Loved Ford and Autumn!

Great way to end the series! I loved getting to read Ford's story! He has always been quiet and in the background, so it was so fun getting to see what he was all about. Of course, it is hard to resist a grumpy meets sunshine romance! I loved seeing all of my favorite characters and watching then play matchmaker! And we can't forget the introduction to a new town with lots of single and eligible bachelors! 👀

And we reach the "end" of the Ryker Falls series. And what an ending! This one has alllllll the feels. Our hero, Ford, just drew me right in. Who can say no to a protective, strong hero with a hidden tragic past? And our heroine, true to all Ms Blake's creations, was both strong, but sensitive and so loveable - Ford never stood a chance really hahahaa! Really unusual first meeting, before we head back to the wonderful crazy that is Ryker Falls. That place must have magical spring water or something. Ageing goals, I tell you! The suspense angle was just enough to keep you interested, and the mystery... Well... I'm in! Specs: dual pov, open door sexy times, but not overwhelming the story, stand-alone but read the series to get maximum value. Really satisfying "ending" and we'll worth the investment in reading the whole series. I'm looking forward to an imminent re-read! I received this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

About the author

Lani Blake is a small town romance author, coffee addict and chocolate connoisseur (in that order). She's also known as Wendy Vella, a USA Today bestselling author of historical romances, a fact which still makes her head spin!

​She lives waaaay down at the bottom of the globe on an island filled with beautiful scenery, lakes, and close-knit communities. Her home has inspired her to write these stories of idyllic small towns, and the quirky but wonderful people who make up their communities.

She's a sucker for an alpha hero with a heart of gold, who works HARD to deserve the women he falls in love with.
