Heart of a Hero
Big-city art instructor Rachel Hollister isn't back home in Horseshoe, Texas, for more than a few hours before she's lost and stranded in the woods surrounding Rebel Ranch. But Rachel's bad luck takes a sudden turn for the better when a ruggedly handsome cowboy manages to save her life, not just once, but twice, in the same day. Rancher Egan Rebel can't resist helping someone in need, even an enemy—or the daughter of one. It was Rachel's father who unjustly sentenced Egan to prison years ago. As attracted as he is to Rachel and her bright, creative energy, Egan can't forgive the man who stole his freedom. Can Egan let go of the past, or will he turn his back on the only woman he's ever loved? AMAZON
This story had some interesting family dynamics on both of the MC's sides. It also had plenty of action, resentments and misunderstandings. Add to that the "forrbidden" attraction between Egan and Rachel. Forbidden because of the actions of Rachael's father, the judge. Okay, so not exactly forbidden but filled with road blocks all around. It was almost like the Hatfield's and the McCoy's. Except where there was more hostility and often more danger and real fueding between the Rebel Family and the McCray's, especially Isadore ( known as Izzy). Izzy just keeps causing trouble and some even life-threatening.
Hardy is Rachel's brother and is an honorable man who deeply loves his wife Angie. They both have Rachel's back and add a lot to the story as secondary characters. Jericho is Egan's closest friend, even closer than his real brothers. He loves his brothers but there are just some things that he only shares with Jericho.
There are many obsticals that rise up between Egan and Rachel but there is a HEA with no cliffhangers.
But its not going to be a smooth road for either. There are some things that they are going to have to face on their own and together.
