Fated for Love (The Bradens at Trusty #2; The Bradens #8; Love in Bloom #17)

Melissa Foster

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Librarian Callie Barnes has visions of reading and relaxing--and maybe having a few too many drinks--on her girls' weekend away. Her hopes are crushed when her friends pull into a dude ranch instead of a spa, and she refuses to say longer than one night. That is...until she realizes the ranch is owned by sinfully sexy, and dangerously rugged, Wes Braden--the subject of her late-night fantasies. Fearless rancher Wes Braden thinks he's the luckiest guy on the planet when the sweet, sexy librarian from his hometown shows up at his ranch. Their connection is white-hot, making it impossible for either to ignore their carnal desires. Wes is more than willing to convert sweet Callie from chick lit to a world of erotic romance, but Callie ties sex to love, and Wes avoids commitment like the plague. Callie is thrust into physically demanding activities that ignite her deepest fears. Luckily, Wes is as tender as he is strong, and he's there every step of the way to help her find her inner strength. With Callie's influence, Wes might even discover that he's been nursing a few fears of his own. Passion pulls Callie and Wes from their safe, comfortable lives into each other's arms, and they're about to find out just how alike they really are.

    As usual, Ms. Foster does a wonderful job of giving me the warm-fuzzies. Plus, having her characters state the obvious (such as remarking on their insta-love) always makes me happy.

    A bit of this book seemed like a set up for future books. Just the way we were introduced to some of Wes Braden's staff. And that's okay, it just didn't seem as organic as it usually does.

    I loved this book though. I guess it's the avid reader/wannabe librarian in me. I totally understood Callie's love of books and need to find time for her books. I didn't feel as though Wes was given as much depth, but his romantic streak more than made up for it in my eyes.

    If you liked the other books you'll love this one, too.
