Women's Fiction | Romance Western

Tess Champion is the oldest of the Champion sisters. She’s not happy with the new partner that has insinuated himself into her family’s bull riding business. Tess will have to work with a man the family considers an enemy. Brock Tolman wants the Champion family ranch and the oldest sister. He puts himself in their lives by buying the mortgage for the ranch. Brock’s past is about to come back to the present and put all he’s wanted into danger. Tess and Brock will have to find a way to come together and make their future plans work while they face danger from the past. Can they find a way to come together? Will their mutual attraction overcome their perceptions of each other? What happens when these two reveal secrets? Will the bull no one believes in becoming the thing that’ll save them all? They’ll find themselves figuring out their relationship while dealing with Quicksand.

QUICKSAND by Janet Dailey is the last book in her Champions series. This story centers on the oldest Champion sister and the man they all think of as their enemy. Champion sister and the man they all think of as their enemy. When the enemy insinuates itself into their family ranch the oldest sister will have to deal with him as well as the new situation. Quicksand follows a family of female bull riding breeders who are trying to break into the world of professional bull riding with their bulls. The trials and romances along the way keep them wondering if they can survive. This last book in the trilogy deals with the oldest of three sisters who is determined to keep the enemy at bay, along with the man they consider to be an enemy. She’ll find the man isn’t as bad as they thought and just maybe the one to heal her heartbreak. Quicksand takes the reader through danger, suspense, and blackmail to a very satisfying conclusion. Janet Dailey wraps a wonderful Champions series about three strong women finding their way through the danger and world of professional bull riding. It shows the behind-the-scenes lives of those ranchers who bring the bulls to the Professional Bull Riding contest with some romance thrown into the mix.

Quicksand, Whiplash, and Whirlwind will give any Janet Dailey fan a thrill and is a must-read for anyone who is a fan of the modern western romance genre. I’m just sorry to see the end of the Champions Series because this reader fell in love with these wonderfully relatable characters.

SUMMARY

Tess Champion knows better than to trust Brock Tolman, the rancher who once swindled her late father in a land deal. But with the Alamo Canyon Ranch in foreclosure, Tess is forced to accept Brock’s offer of a partnership. Brock claims he only wants to breed the Champion bloodline into his own herd. In exchange, he offers Tess one of his own young bulls. Soon enough, Quicksand is the rising star of the rodeo circuit, which only proves Tess is better at picking bulls than she is men. Because she’s way too tempted to surrender to her attraction to Brock, despite her certainty he’s only out to steal her family ranch . . .
 
It’s not until the tycoon’s private plane crashes in the wilderness, stranding him with Tess, that the truth of their relationship will come out. The Champion family’s future is on the line, but it’s Tess’s heart that will take the hit if she’s fallen for the wrong man . . .
