Granger: Bad Boys of Daisy Hills Book 3
A Curvy Woman Alpha Bad Boy Romance

Harper

I’ve always known I was going to marry a cowboy with a bad boy edge.
When Granger Locke shows up in Daisy Hills, I know he’s the one I’ve been waiting for.
He pretends he’s not interested.
But I’ve been wearing him down.
He thinks I’m too bubbly and optimistic.
Too good girl for the likes of him.
I can’t wait to show him just how wrong he is.

Granger

After being betrayed by a woman, I swore them off for good.
I drift from ranch to ranch.
Never staying in one place long enough to put down roots.
The last thing I’m looking for in Daisy Hills is to get involved with Harper Sinclair.
She’s the sweetheart of the town.
The complete opposite of me.
Which is why I’ve resisted her persistent advances for weeks.
If I give in, my darker side will surely scare her off.
Or maybe she has an inner bad girl that’s just begging to come out and play.

Meet the different local bad boys in this Heroes of Daisy Hills series, set in this charming world filled with guaranteed HEAs. All sweet & steamy short insta-love romances.

Very Steamy

Granger is trying to avoid a red haired Harper as he has been burned before. Harper however is very stubborn and she steam rolls right over Granger. She is very determined to get what she wants. By the end of the book she caught herself the cowboy.

Not a bad bad boy but who can resist them anyway? Granger was swoon-worthy while also giving us the bad boy vibe we all crave. The chemistry with Harper was intense and I couldn't put it down.

This is book three of the Bad Boys of Daisy Hills series and the main characters are Harper Sinclair and Granger Locke. Harper has set her eyes on Granger, a cowboy who is known for drifting from ranch to ranch for years, who she is determined to make hers. He isn’t playing ball and isn’t interested in getting into any sort of relationship with another woman, after his ex did a complete number on him, sleeping with the ranch boss and setting him up for assault, ending with him in prison and her able to fleece all of his accounts. Harper is doing interviews for a piece in the Daisy Hills local blog and all he sees is her sweet, bubbly, yet innocent side, whilst really there is a naughty side there just waiting for the right man! She is wearing him down, slowly, bit by bit, until he won’t be able to ignore her anymore. She has already researched his background to the nth degree and has been waiting years for a man like him, to finally find her perfect match, even if he might just disappear on her and leave for another ranch!
Her best friend Chloe tries to sway her from her path, but she is determined that Ganger is the bad boy she is looking for. She isn’t as sweet and innocent as most of the town believer her to be. She had to raise her siblings, being like a strict mother to them rather than a sister, leaving most of them not even talking to her. When her sister Paisley suddenly calls her out of the blue and needs somewhere to stay, she drops everything, even Granger, to help her. But she won’t let Paisley take advantage of her credit card! Thankfully, her best friend Chloe’s dad own the ranch where Granger works and as already told him to answer all of Harper’s questions, no matter how annoying and tempting she might be. She forces him to try and scare her off with a hot and full on kiss, but he has no idea who Harper really is and what she wants, apart from him. She has made it very obvious that she wants him and permanently, not just for a fling, no matter how much he tries to tell her he isn’t interested.
The story soon ramps up the heat, with some steamy and romantic scenes, where she gets to tempt her man and make him almost beg for her. He certainly can’t get her out of his mind and no matter how much he tries, he can’t forget about her. She has certainly wormed her way into his heart and shows her inner bad girl off to the extreme. He may try to run, but he can’t hide from what she offers him and soon won’t want to. A guaranteed HEA ending for the two, as the sweetheart of Daisy Hills manages to rein in her cowboy and lasso his heart. A fun short read you can manage over a break or lunch, with lots of teasing and temptations flying around. I received an ARC copy of this book from BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the book above.

Souls that recognise each other

This book is about Harper and Granger. Harper has had her eye on him ever since he started work on the ranch. She’s determined to make him hers. Granger however has no intentions of getting into another relationship, after his last one left his heart shattered, and in jail! But when his feelings develop quickly too, there’s no trying to control things. And Harper will pull out all the stops to make it hard for him to resist her.

When they do come together, they’re fiery and passionate. They’re just truly seem perfect together. But when Harper says something to him, he finds it hard to believe, and it runs him out of town. Harper is understandably heartbroken and confused, but will this time away help Granger come to the realisation of the depth of feelings for her, before it’s too late?

This was a really fun, funny, sweet and steamy read. I did however feel that it ended a bit too abruptly. I NEED to know what happens next! And I always love getting my head back into the Daisy Hills scene. It’s always good to see other characters in these stories, and I can’t wait to read about Londyn and Maverick’s love story next! I give this book four and a half muffin-filled stars.

"He is already in the process of falling for me. He just doesn't know it yet."

Granger is the third book in the Bad Boys of Daisy Hills series and is the story of Harper Sinclair and Granger Locke. Harper writes the very successful Daisy Hills Blog and she is determined to get Granger to open up, and maybe even fall for her. Granger is a cowboy who showed up at the Daisy Hills Ranch and caught the eye of Harper. Granger has a past that he is still trying to outrun in a way, so he wanders from ranch to ranch working his way across the country, moving whenever he feels the need. The one thing Granger is sure of is that he will never give his heart to a woman again. The thing is that he has never met a Harper before, and her home baked Lemon Poppyseed muffins. After all he discovers Harper is "Too chipper and bubbly, with a hint of inner bad girl." and that he cannot break her.

Get ready for an entertaining and sizzling read with Granger. You just have to love a woman who sets her sights on what she wants and goes about getting it. She may get her heart broken in the process but she is sure she and Granger are meant to be together forever. I really enjoyed this easy and fun story.

Granger and Harper . . .

Harper Sinclair has been waiting for the perfect man to enter her life. When Granger Locke arrived on the Daisy Hills Ranch, she knew she had just found that love. Having him try to resist her just makes him more interesting. But she doesn’t know his history, how he was deeply betrayed by his ex-wife he found sleeping with his boss, got pregnant by the man and had Granger sent to prison when he broke the boss’ nose for demanding he divorce her so he could have her, then she stripped all of his bank accounts while he was locked away. He has no desire to trust again.

However, Harper is a force to be reckoned with and has decided she will not let him go. Will she finally wear him down? Will he recognize that she can accept him no matter what he thinks about himself? Is he ready to give love another chance with this spitfire lady who just might be perfect for him?

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
Granger is the third book in the ‘’bad boys of Daisy hills’’ series.
This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Harper wants the new ranch hand in town. Granger has been burnt by love before. Will he give in to his attraction to Harper?
The chemistry between Granger and Harper is clear to see and I liked them together.
I liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I look forward to more books from this series.

This book was so much fun!! Short and steamy but with all the feels and two characters who are so different yet perfect for each other. Harper was a terrific strong female character. She knows what she wants and she goes for it full speed, even if there are obstacles. The biggest obstacle is that bad boy Granger doesn’t want to find love again. So no matter how much he’s attracted to her he’s determined to keep his distance. He’s been betrayed before and never wants to let that happen again. Luckily Harper is sunshine personified and wants forever with him, he just needs to give her a chance.

Harper has set her sights on Granger and she’s going to prove to him that they were meant to be together. Granger has sworn off women and relationships after his ex cheated on him. He’s going to have to stay away from Harper, even though she’s been popping up everywhere, or leave Daisy Hills for good. A sweet but steamy storyline. Harper is hardworking and determined to get what she wants. She knows that Granger is hiding his past by pretending to be tough and grumpy but she knows there’s a soft side hiding inside. Granger has trust issues and fights the attraction he feels towards Harper. These two are perfect for each other and a great addition to this series.

Harper is so fun. Harper is in love with Granger and no way is she letting him go. She is going to fight for him. She is a woman that knows what she wants and Granger is it. Granger works on the Daisy Hills ranch and has moved from ranch to ranch ever since he got out of prison. Granger thinks he is not good enough for anyone so he keeps closing Harper off. But Harper is not taking NO for an answer. This is such a fun fast paced steamy read about a woman that knows what she wants and a man too afraid to take what he wants. Do they have a HEA of course it's a love story. I loved it. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am leaving this review voluntarily.

all hail harper

I can say with absolute certainty that this was one instance where I loved how the heroine pursued the hero. Harper knew when to give granger space and knew when to be push that granger needs. I love how steady she was with her declaration and how well she calmed Grangers insecurities and fears. I can only wish there was a mini side story where they bump into his ex wife and Harper punching the ex wife the same way granger punched the boss she cheated on him with. That would have been cute.

Finding a Landing 🐎❤

Harper Sinclair is Daisy Hills blogger and douse of sunshine. She knows actually what she wants. She definitely wants Granger Locke.

Granger isn't looking for love. He enjoys hoping from ranch to ranch. He is tormented from being done wrong in the past. But this big guy in a shock.

Harper is a ball of energy for him. I enjoyed reading Harper's relationship with her best friend and sister. The chemistry between the two is hot. I enjoyed the epilogue/ last chapter.

Harper wont stop or give up until she gets what she wants and that is Granger. From the moment she first seen him she knew she will marry him, that they are meant to ge together.
Granger has sworn off women since his ex wife broke his heart. But there is something about hope he has tried his hardest to deny, but looses the battle. He can no longer deny his feelings for her.

This is really a hot and steamy insta love short story. Could not put it down until it was finished.

A really nice read about a woman who knows who she wants and is not afraid of going after him. Granger is a man whose past as molded him into the loner he is today. Now that Harper has set her sights on him, that loner title is about to change.. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Leaving the past gives fresh beginning. But Granger is revisiting because of his past. Red aka Harper is willing to do what it takes to claim her man. And she will take him by any means necessary. She has a plan. No cliffhanger . I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Granger has been betrayed by a woman in the past and that is the reason why he doesn’t trust them anymore. He doesn’t feel like staying in the same place for long.
Harper knows what she wants and that is Granger. However, he is not ready yet. Or so he thinks.
Short, sweet and a bit pushy for poor Granger.

Hopeless Romantic

Granger and Harper’s love story is so good. Granger tries so hard not to admit to himself that he loves Harper.

Granger is a bad boy, but such a good man. It's no wonder Harper falls as hard as she does for him. Loved seeing her go for what she wants.
