Love at Rosecrown Ranch is the first book in the Rosecrown Ranch series by Ruth Pendleton. It is the story of Jenny Stratton, fresh off a devastating break up, needs a break and Hank Miner, ranch hand on her grandmother’s ranch, wants nothing to do with Jenny. Hank doesn’t trust the city girl despite her beauty and bravery. But soon they are forced to work together and the lines quickly become blurred as their attraction becomes a distraction they both are trying to avoid. Jenny must decide between the life she left behind and the life she has discovered on the ranch with Hank. Home is where the heart is, Jenny needs to decide if it’s in the city she left behind or on the ranch and Hank in front of her.
Love at Rosecrown Ranch is a sweet romance with deeper issues of grief, heartbreak and finding a way to move forward and love again. I enjoyed Jenny and Hank as people with deep wounds from heartbreaks, both reluctant to open their hearts again but can’t help being drawn to each other. My one complaint is Jenny’s “friends” who constantly berate her for still being weeping over her breakup. Is anyone really over a devastating breakup in 3 weeks? Especially when Jenny was anticipating a very different outcome? I feel they were being too harsh with her. Overall, I enjoyed this story. It is the type of romance that leaves you with a smile and sigh of happiness. I recommend Love at Rosecrown Ranch and I look forward to reading the rest of the series.Love at Rosecrown Ranch is available in paperback and eBook
