Summary

Beth Danube's emotionally abusive husband is dead and buried. So is her heart. It's no big deal, she has all she wants: her three little boys and a fresh start in a small Alberta town. What she doesn't want is another man in her life-not now, maybe not ever. After ten years of unsatisfactory, missionary-position sex, she never expected her libido to reawaken. One look at sex-in-boots Daniel Coleman in a Calgary bar, though, blows the dust off her sexuality. Sensing an edge of desperation, even fear, beneath Beth's come-on, Daniel finds himself giving in to the powerful urge to let his normally subdued desires run wild. The lady wants non-judgmental, non-vanilla sex? She's got it-in and out of the bedroom. At first, friends with blazing-hot benefits is more than enough. Then she realizes Daniel is burning away the protective fortress around her heart . . . and the guilty secret she dare not reveal.

An emotional romance

I really enjoyed the second book in the Rocky mountain home series. Beth and Daniel are a sweet couple.
The narrator was excellent.

Tissue Please.

I wish/hope people take a chance with this series so not my usual books. I am so happy and now cant wait to pick up the next book.

I also want to leave a fyi for those that dont have the romance package with audible, it is a must and easy way to find new author that you would not pick up.

PS WILL NEED A TISSUE BUT FOR A GOOD REASON.

BEAUTIFUL WELL-WRITTEN HHHOT LOVE STORY

Two people with emotional scars find each other in this well written, heartwarming and thoroughly enjoyable listen about family, patience, second chances and love.

When Beth moves to Rocky Mountain and meets Daniel again their story starts off with her just wanting 'non-missionary' sex and, of course, he's only too happy to oblige but he's looking for more from her too - friendship and companionship at least. Daniel's one hot, sexy cowboy but Beth, along with her 3 boys, brings out his thoughtful, loving, tender and caring side and you just can't help but love him for that but Beth's just not ready to trust again.

Their building relationship takes place over the span of a year and in that time their sweet, erotic, touching story encompasses family traumas and sub-plots, the opening of old wounds, secrets shared, some hot sexual chemistry and so they finally begin to heal each other. It's not action-packed, unless you count the sexual 'action' between the sheets, in the barn, up the wall, in the changing room, on the phone and pretty much anywhere else and it includes adult toys too, but it is an enjoyable, emotional and passionate love story.

Vivian Arend effortlessly entwines other Coleman family member's stories throughout this listen too and we get to catch-up on the latest from Blake and Jaxi's story from book 1.

Worth the credit? If you're in the mood for a hot, touching, tender and passionate romance then this is definitely a book for you and I thoroughly enjoyed watching the slow and gentle development of a tight and caring family - so that's a YES.

Rocky Mountain Haven

I don’t really remember the first book until about the middle of this one then it all came back.

Overall this book was ok. It was a little predictable but really low on drama which I appreciate. And who doesn’t love a good love story about starting over after a painful past. Especially for a single momma.

Tatiana does a great job with this book. I don’t know if I listened to her do too many MC books or what but I kept thinking Daniel was going to get on a motorcycle.

Emotional and sweet

Beth and Daniel is agreeing to have a friends with benefits relationship but things get more serious along the way.

This was a emotional story most of all. All the suffering Beth had gone through with her late husband was heartbreaking. Still she comes out a strong women. Daniel has his own backstory that isn't all that fun.

Since I've been a single mom at a point in my life I have come to love stories about single moms finding love. Although real life isn't as easy as this story makes it sound when you find a new man, it is a story and I enjoy very much the happy ending.

This authors writing style makes it a very joyful read, no unnecessary descriptions of surroundings and lots of dialogues, what's not to like?

The characters are well described and I get a feeling of being in the story with them. This leads to laughing, crying and sighing through the story.

And the love scenes are a great bonus that's filled with emotions, just how I like it.

Another 5 star story from this author.

Another great addition

Each book in the series builds on the last, so be sure to read/listen in order. This one also runs somewhat concurrently to Rocky Mountain Heat (book 1), so there’s full on spoilers if you opt to start here.

This one is pretty low angst (though with a few potential triggers, listed at the bottom of my review) and features brother #3, Daniel. He meets the mysterious Beth in a bar one weekend where sparks fly - but she slips him a fake number. When they reunite, Beth surprises Daniel with not only the fact that she’s a mom to three young boys but also a proposal of a sex-only relationship. Daniel agreed under the condition that he wants to at least be friends.

This is simultaneously sweet & super sexy. I like that even though Beth is skiddish about a relationship and has a lot of trauma from her deceased husband to get over - she doesn’t play with Daniel’s feelings or waffle. While slow burn in the relationship aspect - the sex is frequent & fun. Beth’s boys are an adorable addition and it’s a treat to witness the whole family fall in love with each other.

We get updates on Blake & Jaxi. A few chapters from Gabe’s POV to tease us about his upcoming book as well as his perspective on some happenings with Matt. (Who gets the next book, Rocky Mountain Desire)

I enjoyed Sokolov's narration. She uses a subtle Canadian accent that continues to remind the listener of where we're at without overpowering the narration/story.

So great but SO raunchy!!

This series sucked me back in even though I don’t love the threesome stuff from the 1st book and almost gave up. This story was great and resonated with me on a few levels but - it was hands down *the raunchiest book I’ve ever listened to! * I’ve listened to hundreds of historic and contemporary romances, even Pucked by Helena Hunting - that were less graphic than this one. I hope the next books in the series dial it back a bit - love series with families and small towns but eeek! Anal bead vibrators? That was a shocking audible romance first!
