Review: Loved Whip, Not so much Heather
Rating: 4 out of 5

I'd probably rate this a 3.5 but decided to round up.  Whip is a great character.  He made me laugh, was realistic and an overall good guy.  Heather on the other hand I couldn't connect with.  She was a little too bratty for my tastes in the beginning.  However, I think my biggest issue with this book is that Heather's character was completely unbelievable.  Who can run a ranch entirely on their own with not even occasional help, plus throw in a little farming and an animal rescue. The other big problem I had was vagueness surrounding the murder of Whip's first wife. Without giving away spoilers, the ending just felt rushed and inconclusive. Considering the background, I really felt there should have been more about the man. And this is a small thing, but it annoyed me-- the caption on the front cover says they were both afraid to love, but really that only applies to Whip.  It's still a good, entertaining read and I would recommend it. I would love to see another book about Buster and Alice's story.
