The guys at At-Ease Ranch are a special group of veterans working to assist other vets, either injured or need help transitioning. We've seen Brick and Stone break down their walls and open their hearts to love, now it's Cord's turn. Cord has been around for the other books, especially for Brick's story as he dated Cord's sister Beth. He's tough, honorable, trustworthy and all male. For years he's loved his buddy's widow, Haley, but kept his feelings a secret because of their code. Haley doesn't follow the same code, since her husband died she wasn't exactly torn up. Her husband did something to lose her respect and basically hurt her heart enough to shut down a future. It's not hard to figure out the end result when Cord helps Haley put her ranch together for a new business. Their relationship is fun, flirty, and full of fireworks. I love a quick read that hits all the fun spots of a romance, and Lulu Belle returns to taunt Jovy. Great series! I received an ARC from Netgalley and wrote my review voluntarily.

I've loved this whole series and this may be my favorite to date. Haley and Cord just work so well together I couldn't help but fall in love with them. There's a nice easy flow to the story that just keeps you turning the pages. This is a great story of two people fighting an attraction due to a sense of honor but in the end is inevitable. They both keep secrets that could hurt the other and could ultimately drive them apart. Grab a copy of this one and enjoy their story! I highly recommend it.

I received this ARC from Netgalley for an honest review.
When former army ranger Cord receives a call for assistance from his army buddy's wife he goes to her immediately. Haley having lost her husband in war has had a difficult time keeping the ranch going and hopes that Cord can help her with some of the heavy duty work. Cord and Haley have great chemistry but Cord will not be with Haley because of her late husband and the guilt he holds for his death. Will they be able to resist one another.

This was honestly my first book in this series. However, after reading this, I definitely want to go back and read the first two. I loved the relationship between Cord and Haylee. I thought they had great chemistry and they were so sweet together. While frustrating at times, I definitely swooned hard and rooted for them throughout the whole book. This was such a sweet story and I found myself caught up in the world that Donna built here. I definitely look forward to reading more from this series and from this author.

4.5 Stars I found myself taken into the pages of The Right Ranger from falling in love with the strength and emotions of the characters and their stories. This story was well written and continues the series with Former Army Ranger Cord Brannigan and Haley Wagner a woman struggling to keep her ranch afloat and needing to reach out to Cord for help. If you haven’t read this series yet do yourself a favour and add it to your list you won’t be disappointed

This book is the third book in the series but they all completely stand alone (no cliffhangers) so you can read them in any order as long as you don't mind small details about the previous couples being spoiled. There is both cursing and on-screen sex in this one, so if that isn't your jam, you might not enjoy this, but you'll be missing a beautiful story...and, to be totally honest, really hot chemistry.

This book was exactly – EXACTLY – what I wanted for Cord and Haley's story. When we met serious, stoic, by-the-book Cord in the previous books, I knew that a woman was going to take him down to his knees hard and I was just hoping that it would be Haley and that their story would have the kind of intensity and chemistry that a relationship featuring a character like Cord should bring, and this book did not disappoint. These two had amazing chemistry from the very beginning, and it was so much fun watching them dance around each other, knowing that they wouldn't be able to resist their attraction. I get the whole “Ranger code” and all that, but I have no idea how the two of them held out for as long as they did, considering the sparks that flew between them.

This series has been so wonderful that I hope that there are more to come because I cannot get enough of the Men of At Ease Ranch. If you like a book about 'forbidden romance' (which is mostly only forbidden in their minds) and a book about two really great characters who find love together despite fighting it as hard as they can, you have got to read this book.

I requested and was very generously granted an ARC of this book via NetGalley. I was under absolutely no obligation to write this review, I did so because this book was fabulous.

What will happen when two people who share such intense chemistry that the room heats up when they are around are stuck living under one roof for three weeks.
Haley is in a tough spot, she needs to get her ranch ready for boarding horses in three weeks, and has no choice but to ask Cord for help.
Cord has managed to control his attraction towards Haley but now working and staying at her ranch, controlling it is getting tougher and tougher.
This is the third book in the Men at Ease ranch series, and the series keeps getting better and better. I just loved Cord and Haley. I loved how being with each other made them just let go and be at peace with everything. I also enjoyed reconnecting with the characters from the previous men at ease series and Lulu Belle :))
Can't wait for the next book

The third book in Donna Michaels The Men of At Ease Ranch continues to tell the tales of trouble veterans and their daily battle with the memories and losses of years past and their need to distance themselves from the joys of life.

Fortunately there is somebody out there determined to ensure that each of these passionate and devoted men find the happiness and love they each so richly deserve.

My infatuation with this series has not diminished, as once again Ms Michaels has penned a believable story with wonderful characters that will fight for what they believe in, and love to the depth of their very souls. Cord and Haley will capture your hearts and have you longing for their HEA.

Cade always knew he had an attraction to one of his friends wife Haley, but when his friend dies on their last mission he knows a secret he never won't to reveal. Cade gets a call from Haley where she asks for help at her ranch. They both feel an attraction that's to hard to resist. But can they make it more than a one night stand with Haley also keeping secrets of her own?

A wonderful sweet story about love that's been brewing for years. The chemistry between them is well written and filled with emotions.

I'm absolutely in love with the man at At Ease ranch and Cade is no exception. He's a compassionate, caring guy who wants to honour his his friends memory by not revealing his secret.

Haley has her own feelings to struggle with and can't help her attraction to the hot cowboy helping her out.

The storyline is good and there is no unnecessary descriptions of surroundings. There is also a good amount of dialogues which makes it a great read in my opinion.

This is not a "wow" story but it's a warm heartfelt story about love that survives because it's supposed to be.....

Solid 5 stars ✨

**I received a copy of The Right Ranger from Entangled Publishing and Net Galley in exchange for a voluntary and honest review**

The Right Ranger by Donna Michaels is the third book in her Men of At Ease Ranch. I have read all three and really think that this one is my favorite. This is Cord and Hayley's story and I loved it so I'd give it 5 stars for everything and hope that there will be more books in the series.

Cord Brannigan made a dying promise to his teammate Drew but he has a secret that could break Hayley's heart. Little does he know that she already is aware of the secret and is ready to move on with her life. She has asked Cord to help her make her ranch into a boarding facility but only has three weeks to complete it before the first horses arrive. When he finds out that Hayley's only ranch hand has a broken leg the tasks seem a bit larger especially with the time crunch. But can he keep his hands off her? He hopes that she has felt an attraction they have, could they have a future together?

Hayley Wagner wants only two things to make her ranch a success and let Cord know that she is ready to move on from Drew and if she has to make the first move then so be it. But even though Cord feels a loyalty to his former teammate what he doesn't know is that Hayley knows the kind of person Drew was and also who his death benefit divided out to. But when these two get together finally sparks will fly, but when he finds some paperwork of Hayley's will Brick, Stone, Lizzie and Jovy be able to set him on the right path so that both Hayley and Cord can finally have their own happiness?

I was waiting for Cord's story, I have always liked him, and still do. I love this group of guys, always there for each other. The only thing that I did not care for, was that Cord was still loyal to Drew, I understand that Rangers stick together, but Drew was a cheater, and yet his loyalty went to him, instead of Haylee who deserved it, she was a great girl. I did understand Haylee's point of view in that she did not want to besmirch the guys memory of there friend, but she deserved happiness. I was happy that they did give each other a chance, and I have to say that Beth did redeem herself in my eyes, I did not care for her in the last book, but she did show she really care for her brother.

I have really enjoyed this whole series and getting to know Cord and Haley was fun! This couple is HOT, stubborn and at times lots of fun but they also have some major issues to work out. If you are following this series you will not want to skip this one! If you are new to the series, this great couple is worth the time to get to know!

Loved! I love this series and this book was a wonderful addition to the series. Haley is the widow of one of Cord's fellow rangers. She owns a ranch that is struggling financially, and as she changes its focus to horse boarding, she calls Cord for help.

Cord has been in love with Haley for years, but has never acted on it because of the ranger code, but his ranger team mate has been dead for years... Haley has always been attracted to Cord, but would never act on it because of her marriage. With the two of them working closely together, the sparks fly and the pages of my kindle practically sizzled.

Fans of the genre will love this book. While it is part of a series, this is a stand alone novel. The author is on my must read authors' list.
