The moment Rod McClintock spots the disheveled bride on the side of the road, he knows life is about to become a lot more complicated. Callie Price is on the run and in need of his protection. She's also the answer to his financial woes, if they're both willing to say "I do." A marriage of convenience is Callie's sole shot at inheriting the ranch that'll help her rebuild her life. All she needs is a husband in name only. Her smoldering cowboy rescuer fits the role perfectly. Too perfectly. As they struggle to escape a killer's obsession, peril and passion tie them together. And before long, someone is putting "till death do us part" to the ultimate test.... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

But then...
At the end Nicky, the drug dealer, kipnaps the boy Jesse. There's this very weird scene where she threatens the heroine Callie with a gun. It goes off then the hero Rod tackles her and tries to get her gun away. Then suddenly Nicky is dead and the hero is saying he had to shoot her because she was going to throw a knife at Callie. WTF? How did she manage to get a knife out while struggling with a big cowboy over a gun? And how did he think that she could possibly throw a knife accurately from underneath him on the ground and that shooting her point blank was the answer instead of just pinning her knife arm down?
Then suddenly there is an epilogue, happy ever after. Wait a minute! I say! No one told anyone else that they loved them. That's right folks. The author totally skipped the payoff. Why do I read romances? For that moment when they admit to each other that this is it, the real deal, love, love, kissy face. Can't live without you. But nada, zip, zilch.
So in the epilogue, they have a second wedding. He says I love you as they kiss. Fine time to find out I say. Then there's a paragraph of crap about Nicky and how the half sister's kid is pyschic and the introduction of a half brother to the hero who is coming to have his own book next.
