review 1: I wish that I could say that I LOVED this book, but….. It was all just too darn convenient. Weren’t there any other SO for these people? Seriously brothers all had to hook up w/ sisters? I simply ADORE romances but this is pushing the pink sparklies, rose-colored glasses and dancing ponies to the extreme here. Then the fact that the h, Paige, and the H, Austin, have a history where he broke her heart and he giggled about her reaction. WOW!! It was as though what he did to her at the time wasn’t that serious, and I couldn’t believe him. They had been dating before and she had their life all mapped out. Only problem Austin didn’t think things would/could work out that way so instead he construes this brilliant idea. He will be w/ a “friend” and let wo... morerd get out that they were together and he was cheating on Paige thereby forcing a breakup and destruction of her plans for the future. Only thing is this “friend” is not someone that Paige gets along w/ and one of the “friend’s” friends lets Paige know that good ole Austin is out w/ her messing around and of course Paige catches them in the act! Brilliant idea huh? Why did he actually have to go through w/ it? If the “friend” was really just a friend wouldn’t it have been enough to just pretend and let Paige’s imagination fill in the rest then at least he could claim innocence. Nope he didn’t mean to hurt her that bad though and when he approaches to apologize well she runs after him w/ a water hose. Now that Nurse Paige is helping him or babysitting him as he heals he decides he wants a little bit more, but for some reason I just couldn’t get behind these two. Austin was incredibly selfish in his youth and he seems to blame himself for lots of things, but he is still a little angry at Paige too. He wants her to just jump back in with him. Yes, it’s been years but for some reason I felt like this story was more fluff than anything and I found myself struggling through it.
review 2: Austin McKettrick and Paige Remington have know each other since Kindergarten. Just before graduating HS Austin decides he would rather ride the rodeo circuit than get married and settle down so he cheats on Paige so she will let of her dreams--going to college together, marriage, HEA. Ten years later, Paige is an RN in Blue River and Austin has just ridden the devil of all bulls and is in need of a nurse. I love the ending of this series!! Terrific epilogue Fun book,, love the banter between Austin and Paige. less
