Rating:  Summary: A silhouette romance, 174 pages, one inch book. fast read. Review: Cute contemporary western story about 2 feuding ranch owners and their problems. One is in financial trouble and the other needs cattle land so Gabe Brant proposes a marriage of convenience to Ashley Ryder, the unmarried pregnant daughter of the Ryder ranch promising to share his money and expertise to their land to solve both their problems. Likeable characters, very predictable plot and foreseen ending.Obviously, given the "length" of the book, not much depth.It's a cute read. Sorry I went out of my way to find it.
Rating:  Summary: Storyline info Review: Gabriel Brant was breaking a generations-long feud by proposing to the lovely Ashley Ryder. He offered a deal that would benefit both - he'd get land to expand his cattle ranch and seven-months-pregnant Ashley would get a father for her baby. But he hadn't planned on Ashley's searing kisses shattering the walls around his heart!Ashley might have fantasized about Gabe when she was a girl, but she didn't trust the ambitious cowboy to keep his word once he grabbed the Ryder land. The way Gabe made her pulse race and her knees weak didn't mean a thing. Except that she found herself wishing their paper marriage would catch fire....
Rating:  Summary: A PRETTY DECENT STORY Review: Given the length of the story, I consider it well written - the characters lovable -- the general plot very good. But what is with all these females with emotional problems? Human nature, I guess. If Ashley had guts enough to have a baby on her own, why should she expect her boyfriend to be ok with her problem. She definitely needed to use caution but get on with her life. Gabriel Brant was apparently still in mourning, but the attraction to Ashley was the breakthrough even with a marriage proposition. Ashley fell in love with Gabe's son Julian and was going to be a good mother to him. Gabe was willing to be a father to Ashley's unborn child, all he needed was land for cattle. The feud between the Brants and the Ryders was a bit unclear but I loved the legend of the white stallion that went well with the subtitle of Stallion Pass. True love finds those that capture the white stallion. Was tickled when Gabe turned the white stallion over to his best friend, Josh Kellogg. Now he should find true love in ONE TOUGH COWBOY! Cover lady should have been a little bit pregnant. Still I did enjoy the story - although I was more concerned with the Legend - did love the characters. Definitely Recommended -- Number one of three!
