There has never been a hint of romance between long time buddies, Sara Sampson and Buck Weston--at least not as far as Sara knows. Buck, on the other hand, has wrestled with his strong feelings for her for a while now. Only his fear of losing their precious friendship makes him keep his heart's desire locked deep inside the relaxed, carefree exterier.

When Sara's father dies and stipulates in his will that she must marry Buck's older brother, Cord, or lose her life's goal--controlling interest of the Cattle Enterprise that is the Double B--Buck's left with two choice: risk his heart and best friend by telling Sarah how he feels or stand by and watch the love of his life marry his brother in order to secure what she has worked so hard to earn.

Will Sara choose to marry for love of the land or will she wake up in time to realize the one man who's always had her back, also has her heart?

Best friends forever. You grow up together, best friends. Just like brother and sister. When you do everything with each other, you sometimes forget to look and see what's under your nose. That is pretty much the story here.

Buck and Sara work and play together. There are four boys and four girls that are part of the Double B. It is pretty easy to see who will eventually pair up with who. The fun about this book is reading how Buck and Sara finally see each other. I loved the verbal sparing that went on between them. I laughed out loud when Sara commented in the bar about Buck's sex life. You could just feel the tension between them as things started to heat up. It was very well written and their relationship developed from friends to lovers in an unusual way. There were boyfriends and finances thrown in but the real bad guy was Satan, Sara's bull.

Ms. Adams has three more brothers and sisters to write about on this ranch. I know I'll be looking forward to reading more of her books. This one made me want to look in my own back yard and  just made me feel good all over.
