Resisting the Rancher is a cute romance with cowboys and a feisty veterinarian!Celia Gamble, our heroine, was a rangy tomboy when she left Three River Ranch to go to vet school. She has returned to Three River Ranch a feisty, determined, curvy woman. She is definitely tired of being under her brother's protection. It was the hardest thing for her to confide in Jonah when she needed legal assistance.Jonah Clarke is Celia's brother's best friend and the town's only attorney. Celia's brother would not be a happy camper if he knew about Jonah's attraction to Celia! Not only is Celia his best friend's little sister but she's also his client! She's a big no no for him!I like the good friends into much more story line and the way it works with a tomboy turned woman. I enjoyed watching both of our characters fight their demons and mature.I caught myself laughing out loud multiple times while reading this story. For instance, when Jonah was fighting his attraction to Celia and he was preparing to spend the day assisting her in determining how many cows were pregnant, Jonah voiced to Celia: "What are you wearing?" "Coveralls. S***-kickers. Long, latex gloves." He blinked. "can't wait to see you take them off." LOL! Priceless...Resisting the Rancher can be read as a stand alone book as I've not previously read any of the preceding books in this series. However, since reading Resisting the Rancher, I now have Three River Ranch, the 1st book in the series, loaded on my reader. :-)))Bottomline: This was an engaging romance, written well, with great characters and a very good story line. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys contemporary romances.4 Stars!
