Authors Mari Carr and Jayne Rylon really sucked me in with their Compass Brother's series and my addiction has continued with the Compass Girls. The Compass family is a close nit ranching family in Wyoming. The four brothers now have a second generation of and the Compass Girls are based on all of their daughters. I started the Compass Brothers because the first book in the series is an m/m/f book featuring Silas, Colby and Lucy. I'll admit I love ménage especially m/m/f. Hope Springs is the second book in this next generation about Hope who is Silas, Colby and Lucy's daughter. She's the quiet, studious one who dreams of owning the local pharmacy. She's been dating John for six months, but it isn't the relationship she wants. She's realizing what she really wants is what her parents have but when she mentions it to John things go wrong in a really bad way. The opening to the book is pretty intense and luckily for Lucy, Wyatt and Clayton were there to save her. There are some serious sparks as Clayton holds Lucy and she begins to realize there is something between Wyatt and Clayton and she's feeling some intense emotions.It is obvious there is an attraction to each other and Hope is ready to explore their sexual attraction and it gets pretty hot and steamy but Wyatt is very resistant to starting a relationship. The best parts of the story are Hope's grandmother Vive involvement in trying to get their relationship working as well as some sound advice from both Silas and Colby. But it seems no matter how much the family is there to try to help them Wyatt is not bending. I loved Clayton, Wyatt I wanted to smack upside the head, but Clayton loves Wyatt but he knows Hope is what will make them complete. Wyatt is clearly the alpha male but Clayton is no pushover.The story is very steamy and erotic as with past Compass Pass & Compass Girls books. This one was very emotional as we've read in past stories. Vive's Alzheimer's is progressing and I definitely had to pull out the box of tissues. I loved all the bonding scenes between the cousins but also when the moms enter the picture we get some great flashbacks to past stories.Overall another great book in the series! I already feel like there will be the potential for another generation of books with the girls' younger brothers. Authors Mari Carr and Jayne Rylon have created a family that I love to read about!This review originally appeared at Mrs Condit & Friends Read Books
