B.J. Daniels has an entire series of books revolving around the Caldwell's and each one showcases another cousin in this amazing family. REUNION AT CARDWELL RANCH is number five in the Caldwell Cousins series, but if we are very lucky it won't be the last.

Laramie Cardwell was no one's fool. He and his brothers were partners in a successful chain of barbeque restaurants —the Texas Boys Barbeque—a veritable empire of delicious ribs. He ran the business end and had just lately decided to spend more time in Montana near his family and their ranches. The brothers are all settled now with their significant others, and Laramie was the only foot loose bachelor left of the Cardwell brothers.

So why does this smart guy seem to have his head in a fog around Obsidian "Sid" Forester, an artist of sorts who has single-handedly turned Laramie into what outwardly looks like an idiot.

Sid is almost definitely the car burglar who visited Laramie's house but left empty handed. What was she looking for, why was she still around, and the biggest question why was he giving her such a wide berth. It wasn't that he was looking to give her rope to hang herself. No it was the strong attraction to a stranger who very well appears to be a thief.

Well it looks like Sid has bitten off more than she can chew in this latest plot to retrieve a piece of artwork. Question is why is she so determined to get possession of a painting that just might be a forgery.

Halfway into this story B.J. Daniels still has you guessing. Little clues are popping up at very random moments. The list of suspicious characters grows with each page, but take it from me REUNION AT CARDWELL RANCH is going to keep you wondering till the very end. And that's what B.J. Daniels planned for one of her most well plotted stories to date.
