Meredith Anderson finally managed to leave all the people
adding negativity to her life behind and start over. She
has begun a new life for herself at Tall Pines, working
as a partner with her sister in her wedding planning
business. Meredith thinks she has everything figured out
including revamping herself to what she believes is to be
a confident woman only to run into some trouble or the
other with Gage coming to rescue each time. Gage Mackenzie is all set to leave Tall Pines to become
his own man. Meredith is unlike any woman he knows and is
a complication he does not need. Yet since the time she
fell into his arms a year ago, he only wants her, giving up
his playboy ways for the protective side her sweet
innocence brings out. Until one night when his control is
thrown out the window due to her outrageous proposal. Gage's dark past prevents him from committing to Meredith
despite falling in love with her, and Meredith's own
secret prevents her from pursuing her own happy ending.
Fate has other things in store for them when Meredith's
past comes to haunt her. To rescue her one last time Gage
has to embrace his past while Meredith is determined this
time not to be the damsel in distress. RESCUED BY THE RANCHER is a sweet tale of starting over,
confronting the past, and second chances. Meredith is a
naive character who finally learns to grow into her own,
confront her overbearing parents and cheating fiancé. She
has low self-esteem and is mistaken for leading a charmed,
spoiled city life thanks to her rich parents but the
opposite is true. Determined to correct the image, her
journey is admirable. Gage also carries low self-esteem
due to his past; trailer trash drunk, druggie mom and
step-dad and a super rich dad he does not want anything
to do with. Thanks to Meredith he sees things in a new
light and a revelation turns his world upside down. I
liked the chemistry between the two and how they overcame
the odds to rescue themselves and each other from a life
of misery. Meredith's pain and secret broke my heart. RESCUED BY THE RANCHER is heartbreaking with some sweet
heartwarmingly funny moments. The secondary characters are
vibrant and add to their story. Cannot wait to read more
of Tall Pine Ranch stories by Victoria James especially
see more of Gage's estranged siblings. Their HEA will
leave you with a good feeling and newfound believe in
happy endings and love.
SUMMARY
Starting over and starting a whole lotta trouble... Meredith Anderson left her difficult past behind to create a
new life for herself in Tall Pines-where she can be the
independent, confident woman she always dreamed of being.
Now she's a partner in her sister's wedding planning
business, helping brides realize their
happily-ever-afters...even as she promises herself to never
fall in love. Meredith's sweetness and vulnerability brings out the
protective side of rancher Gage McAllister-even though their
worlds are miles apart. All it takes is one night for desire
to take hold of them both, a sizzling encounter that can
only lead to the promise of more. But Meredith isn't looking
for more, and even if she was, Gage is set to leave Tall
Pines behind him...

Re: RESCUED BY THE RANCHER is heartbreaking with some sweet heartwarmingly funny moments.
I love the conflict involved in both the pasts and also like humor in my HEAs. This sounds as if it fits the bill.
