I will forever be grateful for the original Buckhorn series because those books led me to author Lori Foster. So, I’m ridiculously happy that she has decided to return to Buckhorn and write stories for the children of the original couples. What I loved most about Back To Buckhorn is that the now adult children have many of the same traits that made me fall in love with the original men. As with all books from this author the story was well written, had some truly funny moments, a few sexy ones, and just some good old fashion wooing.Garrett Hudson doesn’t know what to expect when he agrees to pick up his sister’s friend Zoey Hodge from the airport. He remembers Zoey from high school who was always kind of the odd duck but there was something about her that always drew him to her. While she doesn’t look the best after her flight he soon sees just how that odd duck has turned into a swan and he knows Zoey is someone he wants to know better.Zoey can’t believe her luck that the object of her teenage crush, Garrett, is the one to pick her up from the airport when she looks her absolute worst. She soon discovers Garrett is still the great guy he always was and finds it hard not to appreciate the man he’s grown into. She’ll never understand what possessed her to invite him out for dinner as a thank-you but once he said yes, her body and heart react to him unlike anything she’s ever experienced before.I’ll state flat out that I loved these two together; they just seemed to fit easily into each other’s lives. I love that there wasn’t a whole lot of drama between them. Garrett just stepped up to defend Zoey against some of the slurs that were slung her way from an incident that happened years ago. Proving once again he’s a Hudson through and through.I knew going in this was a novella, so while I can’t be disappointed that the story wasn’t longer I will say that I wish it was a full length novel. I love this family so much and while we got to see Garrett’s day Morgan we saw very little of the rest of the family. However, the scene with Morgan was probably one of my favorites in the book. He has always been one of my all time favorite characters from this author.I very much enjoyed going Back To Buckhorn and have enjoyed watching the younger Hudson generation finding their perfect match. For Lori Foster fans, fans of the original Buckhorn series this is a not to be missed book, however if you haven’t read the original series I suggest you start there as you’ll gain much more pleasure out of these novellas.Review copy provided for an honest review.
