D'Ann Lindun doesn't disappoint! I've been a fan of her work since her first book, Wild Horses, was released; her latest cowboy project does not disappoint, either! It's a little darker than her other books and much sexier - and that only makes it better.Cord, the hero, has been attacked and burned by bigots, but that didn't send him running from the town and land he loves. Instead, he stands firm, determined not to give in. Aspen, the heroine, was abandoned by her father and now learns that if she doesn't stay on his ranch she'll lose her inheritance. She doesn't much care about the inheritance, but it would also push Cord away and she doesn't want to hurt him...together, Cord and Aspen learn that sometimes their darkest moments shape their futures in the best ways.There is a racial undercurrent to the book that may leave some readers squeamish, but Ms. Lindun doesn't use that part of the book for shock value; she's taken on a huge issue in the American West and given readers a way to identify with the characters going through the battle.I really enjoyed Vaquero and can't wait for another book from one of my favorite authors.
