Duarte has created a setting that suits this novel perfectly, providing the perfect backdrop for her heartfelt novel. I love how she takes the setting for the series and continues to develop it, while also allowing new readers to picture everything. The plot develops naturally, never forced or lagging yet always entertaining. I enjoyed how real the characters in this novel were. Readers can easily get to know them and relate to them while still experiencing a romance that provides an escape from reality. Their personalities were so genuine and fit the lives that they lead. I couldn’t help but fall a little in love with our resident cowboy throughout, and his heroine fit him perfectly, without being too perfect. Not only that, but the relationship was natural. There was definitely chemistry between them, but there was also so much more. Duarte has combined characters with heart and a story that will capture your attention with this one. It was a great, short read that I really had a lot of fun with. It is a fantastic beach read, or for a rainy day lounging on the couch. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.
