A three-way love interest is the focus of this adult book
about rugged men and spirited women. Just how spirited,
Christian and Tucker are about to discover, as the story
opens with little Claire Mickelson taking out her ire on
Tucker's pickup truck with a baseball bat. Tucker had
been seeing the girl but then stood her up and spent the
night with a casual pickup who bragged in the diner
afterwards.
UNBROKEN introduces hardworking Wyoming rancher Tucker
Langley and his best friend Christian Davis, who works on
road crews. Tucker's fiancée was killed in a car crash,
two years ago, and Christian has quite a thing for Tucker,
who has no intention of getting it on with a guy. Christian
also likes the ladies, and the two men relax by getting
excited over porn together. It's no substitute for the real
thing, of course. Christian reckons that Tucker's heart has
never healed and he is scared of getting too close to any
girl.
Plenty of men have wanted to put their boots under Claire's
bed, but she's fussy. It seems strange then, that the man
who let her down finds easy forgiveness when he approaches
her at the diner where she works and asks to make love to
her with Christian watching. Maybe Claire is just ready
for some excitement. Or maybe she also fancies
Christian... and a threesome.
Em Petrova writes red-hot cowboy romance, so her characters
don't necessarily behave the way that everyday people
would. However there are also serious issues. Tucker makes
a regular visit to the family of his lost sweetheart and is
gently told that they have put away her photo, and it's
time for everyone to move on with life. A dispute arises
about coal mining on the family ranch, with Tucker standing
in the way of what he sees as environmental despoliation
but others see as wealth and progress. When Tucker can't
take any more stress and vanishes, Christian and Claire are
left to care for horses, poultry, and an alpaca....
I did rather think that the main characters were having so
much sex that they couldn't get any work done, but at least
they were being careful. The end escalates into action and
the gritty ladies of this county don't weaken with age.
UNBROKEN by Em Petrova is a good long adult romance read.
It’ll take more than rope to tie down the man they love.
Country Fever, Book 3
When Christian comes out of the bar to find a bat-wielding
country girl beating the hell out of his best friend
Tucker’s truck, he does the only thing he can—he flirts with
her. Unfortunately, he knows her pain—he’s in love with
Tucker too.
Claire plans to nurse her bruised heart alone, but
inevitably Tucker draws her back in—along with Christian—and
the three of them tumble headlong into delirious passion.
Then she and Christian wake to find that Tucker has fled his
horse ranch, leaving them to care for the animals and each
other.
Still grieving the death of his fiancée, pressured to sign
over mining rights to a coal company, Tucker is boots-deep
in emotional turmoil. Running only sharpens his longing for
what he truly wants—Christian and Claire in his bed, in the
barn, and under the stars.
But roping themselves firmly inside the circle of love will
take everything they have—bulldogged determination, flying
fists and aching hearts.
Warning: Wrangle one heartsick cowboy, and the man and woman
who love him. Throw in weeks of working in close quarters,
bales of pent-up lust, and feel the burn of prairie-fire-hot
desire. Now just try to walk away with your heart unbranded.
