(Kaid Ranch Shifters #4)
by
Cassidy Joiner is focused on one thing, and one thing only—her growing horse training business. Her Dad gave her the family farm a few years back, and now she has the challenge of making it run. When a handsome stranger stomps in asking for help training a monstrous horse, she knows she has a huge challenge ahead of her. Both rider and horse are similar, and why she’s a pr

I honestly didn't think I was going to like this one, didn't think Sam was going to be redeemable. But very quickly I was charmed by Sam, much like Cassidy was. Sure he had an odd manner, but if you looked at his actions you could see he was all about Cassidy from the start. It was a huge gamble when very early on he let her see his wolf, but even that worked and I think worked well. It seemed to give Cassidy what she needed to help him understand better. I loved that Sam made the rest of the "p

This one was...alright, but not my favorite of the series. It is a sweet ending to the Kaid brothers' saga, settling newly-reclaimed Sam into human life again with the help of Cassidy, an adorable horse lady. (I'm not sure what exactly to call her and what she does. She seems to do a little boarding but mostly riding and training lessons?) I really wish there had been more of this story, to give it room to breathe and grow. Fleshed out, I think it could have been my favorite of the bunch; I love

Reviewed at Shifter Haven
I’ve never made it a secret that I have loved, enjoyed, and devoured every title by T. S. Joyce that I’ve gotten my hands on. Completely, utterly addicted to her numerous worlds. Still, in all of those stories, I don’t think I’ve felt the brokenness of a man so deeply or smiled so widely as he came out of his own darkness and into the light of those who loved him, especially his mate until I met Sam of the ‘Kaid Ranch Shifters‘ in the final story of this series, ‘Love He ...more

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!!!

Awesome book & love the series
I loved this book & the whole series. All of the books made me laugh stupid & I really hate that this was the last one. And I think the author has a thing for the number 1010. In the first book of this series, 1010 was the number on Bryce's auction paddle when he bought Maris's cows. And in the third book of the series, 1010 was the number of the hotel room Summer destroyed. I know it's odd that I noticed that. LOL But, it's probably because I read all the books in ...more

Awesome!!!
Oh me, oh my this one touched my heart. I laughed and cried reading Sam's and Cassidy story, and his brother as always is hilarious. Especially when Sam brought Cassidy to meet them, but I would of love to be a fly seeing their expressions. I just out laughing when Hunter and Wes asked if she was kidnapped, still can't stop laughing..lol. Well as the days goes by Sam started to really make progress, from sleeping inside more and more, and reconnecting with his bro and their mates. One ...more

Books by this author are always short and easy to read, and they’re set in the shifter world.
Love Her Better is the final book in the Kaid Ranch series. This is Sam’s book.
In the last book, the Kaid brothers and Bryson discovered that Sam was still alive and brought him home. Sam is having a hard time adjusting and doesn’t remember much of his life before he was turned into “Bones”. When Wes gives Sam a wild horse to tame, he goes in search of help.

I enjoyed this final book in the series. I really rooted for Sam since the last book. But I didn’t know how he would become normal again. The author did a wonderful job bringing out the sorrow and aloneness that he felt. Not belonging and feeling no connection to his brothers or Bryson. Luckily the boys don’t give up on Sam. Wes starts him on the right path then Bryson offers him assistance. I loved how the author makes him wholeish again. Cassidy is a wonderful girl and I can’t think of anyone

Needed More
3.5 Stars for Sam and Cassidy's story. This story left me unfulfilled. It needed more towards the end. There were things left unresolved for me about Bryson and the brothers acknowledging his role. Also, nothing resolved with her brother. If it's going to be in there, let us witness Sam and Cassidy 's brother. There were gender errors as well, which was distracting. I expected more from this author. I have read all of her series, but lately the spark of fulfilling the reader with a fu ...more

This is a very interesting book I think there is more of our Alpha in this book more than I have seen in all of her other books there is an under line statement that I think that it defines what she knows how she really feels and she knows that when she needs help she turns for her pack which her true readers for the love and understanding that always her take what ever she needs at that and that is love and the faith we all have for her.

Another great book by T.S. Joyce, I enjoyed catching up with the other brothers (male leads from books #1-3), bu Sam and Cassidy stole the show.
Both were absolutely fantastic together and perfect for each other.
The scene where Cassidy meets the family, was hilarious, as were quite a lot of other instances in the book.
Sam reminded me of Drax from Guardians of the Galaxy. Not understanding social norms/ cues, not really knowing how to smile or express emotions or thoughts whether it be physicall ...more

Sam & Chaos & Cassidy
Great story about Sam the older brothers thought they lost to death years ago comes home. At least for awhile until Sam & asshole meet Cassidy the horse trainer and Sam trainer too. I loved this story of Sam who had a terrible experience after he was turned and made into a killing machine for another pack. Was so glad that someone helped Wes and Hunter find him but it wasn’t the old Sam that they knew. Cassidy had the patience to handle both horse and owner together. So glad ...more

Saving The Monster
Sam was saved by his brothers, brought home and expected to adapt to regular life again. Problem is, it doesn’t work that way for a monster like him. Then came A$$hole, the horse his brother bought him. Angry, scared....dangerous, just like Sam! He brings the horse to Cassidy, she has done wonders with horses like Sams. She sees the scared, frightened and dangerous animals and knows how much they need each other. She makes Sams head quiet, slows down the noise so he can think c ...more

Broken monster healed by his mate
Really thought this was amazing and meaty until the wolf fight which fizzled to nothing very dramatic at all!! No monster fighting for his mate, no mate getting hurt and monster showing raw emotion.....nothing....... Sort of limped along after that scene! Wanted more and didn't get it. Am I expecting too much, I'm not sure. Some previous books have left me stopping and having to go back as I couldn't read on due to the intense scene..... I want that!! ...more

As always T.S. Joyce delivered broken characters that are working on being the best them they can be while finding the strength to heal and fall for their mate.
The banter that T.S. delivers is always witty, entertaining and makes me giggle. Her characters are always so easy to connect with and even easier to love.
Sam hurt my heart all that he had been through and the progress he showed throughout this book broke my heart and healed it.
I can't wait for the release of T.S. Joyce's all new series! ...more

T.S. Joyce does it again! She never disappoints. Sam's story is such a great end to this series! The more broken the hero the deeper you fall in love with him and boy am I in love with Sam.

*WARNING* contains adult situations
I have read and enjoyed every book in this series, but this is by far my very favorite. This is my favorite because most of these books have the shifters strong and together, but lonely. Sam is anything but together, he is the one that needs saving and that is what makes me love this one. Cassidy isn't strong in strength, but emotionally she is and that's what this story need.

Kaid Ranch Shifters - short but decent stories
I LOVE TS Joyce. I needed to get that out before I do the review for this book and the series as a whole. This author always draws you into her world and into the story. However, this particular series was not my favourite of hers and felt like it was lacking some depth and feeling compared to other popular shifter novels (not just hers).
I continue to read most of her books as she is my go-to for shifter romance, but this series was a miss for me.

Fantastic!!
Too say this is good just isn't good enough. This was fantastic. I had read the others in this series and I enjoyed them. This one oh, my gosh, I absolutely loved this one. I even stayed up into the middle of the night to read, until I was falling asleep. I loved Sam the best out of all of them. There is some sexual content but not much, though pretty "visual" . It's a keeper. You'll laugh and cry. Once you start you won't want to stop. Actually, I wish it were longer. ...more

You have to love the Kaids, with their off the wall behaviour and broken minds and no one is more broke than Sam Kaid.
T.S. Joyce brings a ray of happiness to a sometime bleak world, especially during these trying times. As I have come to expect, I found myself full on belly laughing at the antics in this book and I really connected with the characters. Great world building, I can truly visualise riding out across the farm and woodland of the area.
