MS Lacey has bought us another fabulous story in this series I really do enjoy visiting the town of Cedar River and this one is such a feel good emotional and so very honest story of love and caring that really left me with a huge smile, sit back enjoy Ash McCune’s story she is the police office come rancher that helps out troubled and orphaned kids and she certainly meets the best man for her in ex Nascar driver Cole Quartermaine.
Ash lives a busy but rewarding life in the town she grew up in she has her mother and uncle for support and help with her son Jaye and the kids she fosters and a relationship is not what she is looking for, you see she has been abandoned by all of the men in her life father step father Jaye’s father but she has now agreed to help out a friend of a friend Cole Quartermaine and his troubled 14 year old daughter Maisy and Ash’s life is about to change.
Cole was a champion Nascar driver until an accident changed all of that he still works with the family car racing team and has been through a divorce and is happily single and he has only just met his daughter never knowing he had one and Maisy is causing a few problems for him, so he takes her off to the country to try and get to know her and help her, but what he finds is a loving family and a beautiful caring woman that he can’t help falling for.
Starting a relationship can be hard at times and with kids involved even harder to keep those feeling under control and MS Lacey has done it so well this really is a moving gorgeous story one that will have you shedding a few tears but boy you will be sighing and smiling I fell for Cole as quickly as Ash did he is just the most honest hero I have ever met and Ash so vulnerable but so strong and they really deserve and need each other so badly but so do the kids who play a big part in this story. I do highly recommend this one sit back and enjoy.

THE RANCHER’S UNEXPECTEDFAMILY by author Helen Lacey is a September 2017 release by
Harlequin Special Edition series. This is Book 5 of Helen Lacey’s mini-series:
Cedar River Cowboys.
Ash McCune is a single mom and she believed every man she
cared about left her so her heart was closed for love or man.
But when ex-NASCAR driver, Cole Quartermaine came to her
ranch for help, she couldn’t keep her heart closed. Cole needed her help to fix
his relationship with his daughter. And they had chemistry between them, but
when they gave in to the passion, she knew the relationship couldn’t go far.
After all Cole lived thousands of miles away. But what she hadn’t counted on
was all her family matchmaking her with Cole.
THE RANCHER’S UNEXPECTED FAMILY is a sweet romance that
would make a reader sigh with contentment. And reach for tissues when Ash’s son
asked Cole if he would be his daddy forever if he married his mom. Author Helen
Lacey brought out the emotions in this story that would touch your heart. And
she did a wonderful job of bringing Ash and Cole together despite all the
emotional baggage and past grief they carried. This story would enthrall a
reader and keep her hooked until the very last page. I finished this story in
one sitting, as I was eager to discover what happened next.
Highly recommended for all readers of romance.
