First of all, a huge thank you to Donna Alward for sending me a copy of this book.

I don't read a lot of the Harlequin Romance line (I'm more of an angst-loving Presents reader!), but I do like the line and I know that Donna Alward writes some of the best. She also writes brilliant cowboy stories, you should all know by know how I can't resist a cowboy, and this one is no exception.

A Rebel Rancher is sweet to it's very core. Full of heart wrenching reality, as well as heart warming hope, all wrapped into a wonderful journey that the hero and heroine go on.

The relationship is built beautifully, and even though this is a 'sweet' romance there is a lot of spark between the hero and heroine, as well as a very moving love story. I couldn't put the book down!

Donna Alward writes characters that you can believe in and relate to, as well as giving them enough pain that you are as desperate as they are to find their HEA.

My only complaint is that the ending felt a little rushed, in my opinion. But, oh, the epiliogue is lovely!

A beautiful read from start to finish.
