The story line is predictable and follows the “second chance at love” plot line. That might sound like a bad thing, but to me, it is wonderful! In times that the world is facing now, and for the past year, with the Covid virus pandemic, I want to read a predictable, happy, emotional, lovely story! I also want to watch Hallmark movies where the world may not be perfect, but by the end of the movie, things are settled, love is found and characters do go on to live a better life.

This was a fun book from Hallmark Publishing and included the elements I’ve come to expect in a Hallmark book: a spunky heroine, a hunky hero, a good reason to keep them apart, but a fun time watching them fall in love and figure out a way to be together anyway.

I have been reading Jennie's books from the very beginning of her Page Turners series and she just keeps getting better with each new story. Her characters seem more like old friends than characters in a book. I have fallen madly in love with her heroes and I can relate to the feelings of her heroines. She really brings her characters to life. When I finish one of Jennie's books, I anxiously await the next. Rescuing Harmony Ranch is a sweet story of second chances, filled with love, humor, and g

If you are a fan of Hallmark movies as well as second chance loves, you are in for a treat reading Rescuing Harmony Ranch by Jennie Marts. Taking place on a living ranch in Colorado, this story has wonderful characters who give us lessons about family, love and life. I received an ARC for my honest review. Highly recommended.

A sweet second chance that will fill your heart!! Mack and Jocelyn ‘s story is so sweet and engaging you will not be able to put it down. What made this one of my favorites is the family theme that runs throughout the story. The Grams were so much fun. I got a kick out of Savage and his antics! It also was so heartwarming to see everyone including Mrs. Krandle (secretly) working so hard for a ranch that means so much to their community. This was a fun story perfect to read to escape the crazines

Jocelyn finds herself back home in Colorado when her Grandmother breaks her leg. What she doesn’t realize is that her first love Mack works on her Grandmothers ranch as the blacksmith. Mack sure knows how to be romantic even if voicing how he feels proves hard for him. I found this one incredibly well written romance that will make you swoon.

5 LOVING STARS!! You can't get much better then a sweet perfect book from thus author. This story put a smile on my face with feel good moments all the way through. This author has a way with her words....you must read this book.

A new author for me and I enjoyed every minute of the story! I laughed at the dog's antics, cried at the difficult decisions this couple faced and cheered at the success of the fundraisers to save Garmin Ranch.

Old wounds are opened when she works with Mack, but maybe those wounds can heal with maturity and young love. They are sweet and adorable with their competitions for everything, love for the ran

Rescuing Harmony Ranch is more than just rescuing the ranch, it also rescues Mack and Jocelyn. The second chance romance is a heartfelt read that gives all the feels. Years apart did nothing to keep their love at bay, they are a couple meant to be together. The author really puts the reader in the small town scene with her characters and I would love to meet Molly who seems like such a character. I've seen many Hallmark movies, but this book has topped every one of them. I look forward to see wh

What a delightful book!!! I loved it! I've read a lot of Hallmark books and this was one of my favorites! The perfect Hallmark story with added depth. I loved the tidbits about blacksmithing throughout the book and finding out that the Harmony Ranch was based on a real ranch near the author. I would love a sequel focused on another romance hinted at near the end of the book.
