Series: Armed and Dangerous Book #1
Cheyenne McCray is a "new to me" author, and this won't be the last book of hers I read. I have a strong liking for contemporary romances with a western theme. Throw into the mix a hot ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) officer cowboy, and you have the makings of a great romantic suspense story. Not only is the hero in this story a sexy cowboy...but the managing ranch hand, Luke, is to die for too. This is a second chance at love story that has you cheering for the hero and hoping he wins back his lady.
Zack stole my heart from the very beginning. He is as noble as a hero should be...working to protect Sky from the cattle rustlers, and continually proving his undying love for her. He is a down to earth, gun-totin', black stetson wearing cowboy. Need I say more?? LOL. He is definitely an alpha male and doesn't mind using some of that alphaness (is that a word?) to get what he wants with Sky.
Sky has been hurt by Zack in the past. So, she is leery about getting involved with him again. She is a strong woman, knows what she wants...she runs her own ranch, knows how to shoot, and isn't afraid of getting down and dirty with work. She definitely gets down and dirty with Zack - LOL.
The cattle rustling mystery kept me involved, and I wasn't sure of the outcome until the end. I do have to say that the romantic tension between the two was sizzling and the passion was extremely scorching. I think the relationship was the core of the story with the cattle rustling being a great subplot.If you want to read the first three chapters, head on over to Cheyenne McCray's website and take a peek.
I can't wait for Luke's story which is already published. Ms. McCray also has plans for more Armed and Dangerous men...on her Coming Soon page, there are slots for Clay and Noah.
