Claiming the Rancher's Heir

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Anther hit for a very talented author. Can't wait to read more of her books. I highly recommend this author to everyone.

Passionate, hot romance from a consistently great storyteller. It's hard not to enjoy her work. And it's great when an author truly nails the enemies to lovers storyline.

Maisey Yates at her absolute best. It’s hard to top your own creative art but in the latest installment in Gold Valley Vineyards Maisey Yates does just that. The positive – negative charge between her two staring characters Wren Maxfield and Creed Cooper. The static in the air is unmistakable and very telling when ever these two are in the same room. Add to that their undeniable distaste and dare we say hatred for one another. Both part of families that are competitors in the field of wines. Both families seem to have history which has made them enemies. But Maisey Yates is going to try to make those boundaries disappear. It just may take a miracle or magic. Maisey Yates has her work cut out for her and we are just along for the ride. And it is going to be a fun ride for sure.
Gold Valley is a place that has been the setting for many stories written by Maisey Yates. The Vineyard collection is sort of a subset of a really wonderful collection of tales.
I always leave a Maisey Yates book thinking I have just met my most favorite characters and then still another one or two pop up. Such is the case with Wren Maxfield and Creed Cooper. Both have been left hurt and trying to find new paths to follow in their life. Creed Cooper’s dad has just never got over the death of his beloved wife. The Cooper children have adjusted in their own way. Wren Maxfield’s father is now in prison. Never a really doting compassion dad Wren’s father became a monster in her eyes. The family has to live with the harsh legacy left by a man whose life became one of notoriety and shame. Wren’s siblings are also coping with this drastic change in their family.
In CLAIMING THE RANCHERS HEIR we find both Wren and Creed joining forces – so to speak – to bring their vineyard businesses more success. Since both are amazing business people they each bring something special to their joint endeavor. Wren is initially surprised at how professional Creed is in this business. She doesn’t see him as much more than a rough around the edges, rather uneducated lout. Sexy and good looking for sure but not her type. Time here for a chuckle.
Creed views Wren as uptight as a stepford princess. Actually not that far off from the way Wren and her sisters were brought up. But there is something that keeps catching his eye when they have to be a close contact. Creed is determined not to act on any attraction. He has learned his lesson. However, sometimes it is impossible to not react to an attractive stimulus and Wren is that in spades.
So CLAIMING THE RANCHERS HEIR begins with these two realizing that this attraction doesn’t need to be ignored as long as it doesn’t affect their business relationship. Well that all sounds good on paper.
You need to experience CLAIMING THE RANCHERS HEIR on your own. So I won’t give away much of the plot. CLAIMING THE RANCHERS HEIR is a wonderful story written by an author who has become one of my favorites. Wren and Creed are two wonderful characters. Maisey Yates created them with so much love and thought – I am sure you will agree.
