Jareth Darby is a loner who enjoys working as a traveling ranch hand. This tough job allows him to support his parents and family who struggle, but gives him the freedom that he desperately needs. Out in the open wilderness is where Jareth feels most comfortable. But when Jareth takes on a job to obtain wolf pelts, his whole world starts to turn upside down. For he is thrown into contact with Cyan Burns who makes him want things he should never even dream of...

Cyan Burns has never known hardship, coming from a wealthy family. But like Jareth she doesn't really fit in with her family. Throwing herself into good causes, Cyan is determined to save the Gray wolves of North America from hunters. But she didn't expect this sizzling attraction to the hunter himself. Can two people from opposite worlds find a way to make it work? Or sometimes, is love just not enough?

FORBIDDEN TRAILS by Bonnie R. Paulson is the second novel in The Montana Trails series and it doesn't disappoint. Meticulous detail transports the reader to this beautiful wilderness and I could see it all before me. Both characters are lovable and even though they seem so different, they are both just searching for what's missing in their lives. With plenty of twists and turns, this tale of struggle, passion and survival is truly entertaining and I cannot wait for the third installment!
