Chance McDaniel was betrayed by his best friend, who now sits within the fortress of his home, surrounded by the protection of his wealthy family, a victim of a near death experience that has resulted in amnesia. He is also the only person who can clear Chance’s name. But the McDaniels men don’t run from trouble, too bad Chance was not prepared for Gabriella del Toro, who came to prove Chance’s guilt in what happened to her brother. When these two meet, the tension in the air rises and gives an entirely new meaning to ‘love thine enemy.’ Gabriella’s plan to avenge her brother may end up shattering her heart as Chance pours on the McDaniel charm. Meanwhile, is her brother recovering? Will Gabriella’s ever-present bodyguard use Chance for shooting practice?What a Rancher Wants by Sarah M. Anderson brings the old-fashioned charm of a western cowboy romance to the twenty-first century. Chance has that cowboy charm, right on down to the work-roughened hands, nice fitting jeans and easy-going manner, all wrapped up in great packaging. Gabriella is a pampered girl who longs for freedom from an over-protective family and has an iron-clad will when needed, but her experience with men is non-existent. Both are easy to like characters, although, at times I wanted to tell Chance to man up a little. I think my favorite character was Joaquin, the ever hulking in the background bodyguard. A huge man of few words, I laughed at some of the tortures his charge, Gabriella threatened to put him through!I received an ARC edition from the author in exchange for my honest review.
