Should she risk her heart again, with the man who left it broken at her feet in the past? Chance is going after her and she will be his.

Each of the three parts (all inclusive in this book) features one of the three brothers with cross over of characters between parts.Β Carrie had been away from the horse show business for over 10 years but with the urging of her nephew she finds herself attending the horse show and auction hoping to not run into the one who broke her heart. She does end up meeting up with said heart breaker “Chance Ryan” he is taller and sexier than she remembers and she finds she still has feeling for him but does not want to have her heart broken again. The second part of this trilogy follows Chase Ryan as he takes over the family ranch when he brother moves away. The ranch next door sells and when he meets the new owner Samantha Cross sparks fly from the beginning but Samantha has some hang ups regarding the age difference between them and the insecurity she feels when around younger prettier women. This insecurity creates numerous misunderstandings and second guessing of the relationship. The third book of ths trilogy is about Chad the youngest brother who went off to college leaving “little Megs” Megan Malone behind. She has had a crush on him forever following him when ever he is around.Β While Chad has been away at college Megan has grown into a very beautiful woman she now works in her father’s veterinary clinic as a receptionist. Chad returns from college with a degree in Veterinary Medicine with plans to work for Megan’s dad. With the two of them working so close together on a daily basis old feelings are re-ignited and Megan wonders if Chad has every had any feelings for her in the past or even now. This trilogy was so good I loved the characters and the way the story flowed from one brother’s story to the next brothers. Tamara Hoffa writing style has a way of grabbing you and not letting go so you find yourself reading and reading until the end.
