Synopsis: Caleb Stockton has been missing for more than ten years...and he's about to come home. But his homecoming isn't going to be what anyone expects. Not his brothers. Not him. And definitely not her. Review: A Real Cowboy Always Comes Home is the second novel I read written by Stephanie Rowe, but it's the first of the Wyoming Rebels  series. I assure you it can be read as a standalone, but the curiosity to know more about the other characters that appear here is really great. This was an excellent read. I've adored the build up and the suspensful atmosphere, and even if I felt like the solution of the mystery a little rushed, I still enjoyed the ending. Caleb wakes up in the aftermath of an explosion, he doesn't remember anything of his life, a man entrusts him with a baby, so it begins their journey towards safety. While they are on the run they meet Jenna and her teen daughter who try to help Caleb and the child to find the truth about their unknown and dang...

  Synopsis: A month ago, I was a rookie with the best stats in the league. I was traveling the world, playing hockey, and making more money than I ever dreamed. Then my sister showed up on my doorstep, expelled from high school, with nowhere else to go. I don’t know the first thing about being responsible for a troubled teen, and the team jet isn’t exactly kid-friendly. Enter Piper. My sister’s new teacher and nanny. Smart, nurturing, and just as beautiful as I remember. I fell in love with her four years ago and never stopped. Too bad she hates my guts. We need her. And this time, I’m not letting her go. Review: Wild About You was a very good read. The storyline shows less time spent playing hockey and more time spent trying to find the right pace to live happily, surrounded by people who love you. Tyler is a rookie hockey player for the Wildcats, he’s having a good season, he lives alone in a one bedroom apartment near the arena. He is satisfied and excited until his little siste...

  Synopsis: You know what’s great about applying for an art history PhD program at one of the world’s most prestigious universities? I get to study what I love  and  land my dream job at the end of it. You know what’s  not  so great? Being told I’ll only get accepted to the program if I gain access to my aloof, uppity, super grumpy boss’s private art collection. As it turns out, said boss—a one Lord Hayden Stuart—needs to get married to inherit his late father’s estate and earldom. And if there’s one thing Hayden Stuart is  never  going to want for real—it’s a wife. So, we strike up a deal: I marry him and go live at his castle, where I’ll have unlimited access to his collection, he gets his earldom, and when the estate is settled, we part ways forever. Win-win, right? Wrong. I may have fooled myself into believing I wasn’t risking my heart, but there’s one huge problem: I’m definitely falling for him. He’s not just another man. He’s THE man—an irresis...
