They say clothes make the man. If that's the case then
Tyler O'Connelli would vote for Alex Keller's new cowboy
garb. He was gorgeous the first time she saw him at her
brother's wedding but now he's rugged and tanned. She had to
admit ranching had its benefits. Alex's new position as
marketing director on the Last Chance ranch had been a
decidedly major step for the descendents of Eleanor and
Archie Chance. And right at this moment, he dreaded having
to admit that his first event -- an open house -- was
running into some bad luck. First the country band he hired
cancelled last minute and instead of the three tents he
arranged for -- only one was delivered. The event was going
from bad to worse with little or no time to turn this mess
around. Tyler's visit to her sister couldn't have come at a
better time and her expertise in party planning could just
be the miracle Alex needed. Tyler and Alex had to find a
way to deal with their mutual attraction in a sensible,
intelligent, and realistic manner but they both
underestimated the extent of their need for each other. The
plan was simple -- get their fill of each other while Tyler
was staying at the ranch. With no regrets Tyler would return
to her
career as activity director abroad cruise ships. Alex
remembered how difficult their parting was ten months earlier
after their first brief fling -- he realized that he
had invested more of his heart than he wanted to admit.
Question was whether Tyler had any regrets. As the saying
on the ranch goes -- Chance men are lucky when it counts.
Now that Alex was considered one of the family, he could
only hope that luck would rub off on him.
It wasn't a question of whether they had feelings for each
other -- that was a given -- it was what to do with these
feelings -- face them or deny them. Either way would lead to
someone getting hurt. Alex would have to face saying
goodbye again left behind to deal with something that
probably would have been better off left alone -- but he
loved Tyler too much to stand in the way of her dreams.
Past experience had taught Alex that tying someone down
would only lead to hurt for both of them. He had made his
choice to make his home on the ranch with people who had
become his family. Tyler still had the wanderlust she
seemed to inherit from her parents. How could these two
lifestyles ever mesh? Answer was rather simple -- if Alex
and Tyler wanted a life together their love would have to
be the catalyst for making a future. This was a sexy passionate tale of a couple who, at face
value, shouldn't be candidates for a love match but Thompson
makes you a believer that with love anything is possible.
SUMMARY
