review 1: Yes, that's right. 5 stars!! This is another novel that is set in Divine, Texas, and highlights the experiences of a young woman who is the younger sister of one of the heroes in "Summer's Indiscretion." Lydia is determined to live her own life, prove she is truly a grown-up, even though her two over-bearing older brothers, truly loving her, are still way too involved in her personal life. Now the exigencies of life have brought Lydia almost to the bottom of her emotional and financial resources, putting her at the mercy of an unscrupulous boss, a man who wants her for himself. This is a story of a young woman of principle, seeking her own path in life, who is confronted with some personal possibilities she has never considered except in her fantasies. It is a story ... moreof a love that is affirming and which turns out to not only bring Lydia to face her own capacity for love, but it is also the kind of relationship that can bring out the best in her lovers as well. Divine has a number of people living in polyamorous relational configurations, so this is not a new thing--new to Lydia, yes, but otherwise already a fact in this little community. There are still two over-bearing brothers to contend with as well as make some decisions about the direction for the future. A truly great read and one that will be a great experience for those already familiar with the Divine Creek Ranch series but for new readers as well
review 2: Out of all the Divine Creek books this is the one I have been waiting with the most anticipation for, I can't recall what book Clayton and Chance were introduced in, I think it was Heavenly Angel, but I have been eager for this story to unfold and it did not disappoint.Chef Lydia Webster moved to Fort Stockton with a job offer that looked like it would bolster her career, only to find out it fell through and ended up getting a job at Cafe Oasis with a handsy sleazy manager who she has been able to keep at arm's length. Finding her stuff stolen out of her dingy motel room is just about the last straw for her.Chance can't wait to see Lydia again, he has slowly been building up the courage to ask her out even though they live so far apart. His twin Clayton is interested too, but cannot see how a relationship would work out long distance. When Chance sees the opportunity to offer Lydia a job at the ranch cooking for the hands, he hopes she will accept it. Laying it all on the line, he shares with her what he hopes will develop into a meaningful relationship between the three if she is willing to try.***Reread because I had been looking at my five star reviews and curious about this one again. This is still a great read, Clayton is the vulnerable one in this story worried that the one thing he wishes for the most will never happen, only once Lydia is in his grasp does he begin to believe.A huge fulfilling sigh..loved it. less
