An asset to his business…
Or a danger to his heart?
Only moments after a mysterious outsider catches hotelier Rafael Wentworth’s eye at the Texas Cattleman’s Club, he saves her from catastrophe. Their subsequent steamy night together leaves the recently returned black sheep of Royal’s illustrious Wentworth family craving more. In town to find her nephew’s father, Eve Martin needs a job, and Rafael is only too glad to help…and indulge their hotter-than-Texas chemistry. But Eve’s priorities are clear, and the perennial playboy has no plans to settle down. Maybe ever. Is he playing with fire? Definitely…
Love when they least expect it! With the fifth book in the always entertaining Texas Cattleman’s Club: Fathers and Sons series Nadine Gonzalez brings us an endearing match in THE REBEL’S RETURN. I loved both of these characters and thought they were great together, but I would have liked to have seen more development of their relationship in the end to make the story feel more complete. Overall a fast paced, emotional delight!
Eve is a complex character. She’s determined to overcome her health set back and get her nephew settled into a good life, but she finds herself falling for a man who isn’t the type to be there in the long run. I enjoyed her.
Rafael is a take charge kind of guy who built himself up from nothing and doesn’t feel the need to bow to pressure to be more than he is. He was an inspiring character.
I recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone who enjoys a whole lot of drama and intrigue built into their romance with attention grabbing characters and satisfying connections.
