Cowboys of the Flint Hills Book 4
He’s a down-home rancher…
Axel Hansen is a notorious prankster and as fickle as they come, but that wasn’t always the case. Ten years ago, he wanted nothing more than to settle down on the family ranch with his college sweetheart. But his adrenaline junkie girlfriend, Haley, chose her profession over love.
She’s the thrill seeker who broke his heart…
Meteorologist Haley Cooper has devoted her career to facing down tornadoes and saving lives. She’s finally offered the promotion of a lifetime, but it means boarding at the last place on Earth she thought she’d see again and facing down her biggest regret.
Axel jumps at the chance to help Haley with her research, and before they know it, they’re falling for each other all over again. But just like before, Axel’s determined to stay on his family’s ranch, and Haley’s determined to keep her career. When devastating tornadoes rip through the area, they’ll have to confront their biggest fears for the future and decide if their love is strong enough to weather any storm.
Will lightning strike twice for love in this second chance romance filled with smoking hot chemistry and an epic happy ever after? Keep your fire extinguisher ready and your tissues handy.
My Review:
This book is everything I adore in angsty emotional reads: two characters that want to be together, belong together, but just don’t know how to make it work. As college sweethearts, Axel and Haley were so desperately besotted with each other, in the way only young lovers can be. They just had wildly different goals for their futures – only Axel didn’t realize it. When Fate and Mother Nature bring the pair back together during storm season, it’s a chance encounter neither one was prepared for. It didn’t take long before I was fully invested in seeing how Axel and Haley were going to make a second chance work. In fact, I was so thoroughly engrossed in finding out how they’d do it that the deadly tornado that blows through the middle of this story (and Prairie) caught me totally unawares. And left me an ugly-crying mess in its wake. This might just be my favorite book in the series so far.
