Delores Fossen Å 2 Free read

I love Delores Fossen's series and this conclusion is the best. Mason is the most pricly and unfriendly of all the Ryland brothers. But he hires a horse trainer named Abby and even though she is a link to The Ryland brothers estranged Father, he still falls for her. They are all caught up in finding out who wanted them all dead so Boone(Dad) comes back to find out who is targeting his boys as well. A well written conclusion that lets you know that all is right with the world of Silver Creek Ranch and families. Will be looking for the next books from this talented Author. Mass Market Paperback The short version? I loved this book!

Delores Fossen has given me a new appreciation for a cowboy hero. While I've enjoyed the entire Lawmen of Silver Creek Ranch miniseries, and have liked some stories/brothers more than others, I had a feeling MASON was going to be my favorite brother, and that this was going to be my favorite book. I was right!

The setup for Mason Ryland's story--a great hero, rough & tough & take charge, not big on sweet talk or finesse, but he gets the job done. And Abbie is more than his match. While her innocence scares this commitment-phobic hero a little bit, there's plenty of courage running through her, and I loved watching how her tenacity and vulnerability get under his skin. Not only is this a fast-paced romantic suspense, with plenty of villains and danger from the past and present to contend with, but it's a wonderful culmination to a great series. I especially loved the return of Boone Ryland--the father the Ryland brothers all hate. But he turned out to be pretty complex and interesting to get to know better, and, he made it easy to see where the Ryland brothers get their heroic tendencies... or maybe they rubbed off on ol' Dad, too?

At any rate, I wish I'd had the opportunity to finish the series sooner. I enjoyed them all. And together, I felt like I was getting a bigger, more complex, very satisfying read. Mass Market Paperback This series of books is about six brothers that had to raise them self. Their dad took off leaving his wife, and six sons. their mom died shortly after, from a broken heart. The brothers grew up to become lawmen, and ranchers. In the previous books Mason was mentioned as the brother with the steely persona. The only person able to break through his defenses was his niece, baby Kimmy. In this book it was fun to see that Abby was also able to break through all of Mason's defenses. The tough as nails lawmen, and rancher started to care about how Abby felt. The romance between the two was sweet, funny, and very steamy. I am from Texas, so the way Mason talked in this book, reminded me of a few of the cowboys I grew up around.

The emotions were intense in this book. Abby came to work at the ranch as a horse trainer. The book starts out with someone trying to kill her. Mason wants answers. Mason sees the necklace that is around Abby's neck, and stops cold. She is wearing the very symbol that Boone, his dad had giving to him and each of his brothers before he walked out. He wants to know why she has it, and who she really is. Abby's mother was gunned down when Abby was little. Boone took Abby in, and raised her, as his daughter. The brothers have so much hatred build up. they can't believe their dad could walk out on them, but take in Abby. The book really heats up when they find out that the whole family is in danger. Someone wants all of them dead. They have to work together as a team to stay alive.

The action, and suspense was really intense. I really enjoyed this book. In fact this is the 3rd time I have read it. Mass Market Paperback Another in the Lawmen of Silver Creek Ranch series in which Mason, eldest of the Ryland brothers can't believe what he's just discovered: that the horse trainer he's just hired is going by a name not her own--from being in Witness Protection--but that she's in danger and placing his entire family in danger, too.

Abbie doesn't want to be in that position, but when the man who's raised her turns out to be the Ryland brothers' missing--deserted, actually--father, she realizes they are all in bigger danger than she thought.

When the murderer finally sets the plan in action, it's to kill them all at their mother's gravesite, but will he or they succeed? Things only start to wrap up after Mason realizes--slower than everyone else--that Abbie is the woman for him. But will she be alive to enjoy being in his arms, in his bed? Mass Market Paperback Very good book and conclusion to the series. When Mason hired Abbie as a horse trainer he didn't expect her to be a target in the latest problem his family was having. When he discovered that she had a long standing connection to his missing father he and his brothers were furious. But that didn't stop him from doing his best to protect her. There is also an intense attraction between them that he does not want to have, but he can't help himself. Mason and his brothers worked to discover just who is behind the attacks and why they are happening. Their father returns to Silver Creek to help stop the attacks. The Rylands don't want anything to do with him, but he has information they need to solve the mystery. The final showdown is tense and satisfying in its conclusion. I liked both Abbie and Mason. I loved Abbie's loyalty to Boone, even in the face of the Ryland's fury. She was sure that there was a connection between his disappearance many years before and the trouble they are having now. Her feelings for Mason develop quickly, but she is sure they won't go anywhere because of her connection to Boone. I loved the way that she tried to protect Mason from her problems, and how she tried to show him the truth about Boone. Mason was terrific too. He was immediately attracted to Abbie, but her connection to his father made him furious. Even with that, he couldn't stop the need to protect her. I loved seeing how being with her, even in the midst of turmoil, lightened the darkness in him. He smiled and even laughed around her, which is something I don't think I saw him do in the other books. She was also able to open his eyes about his father and make him look at things in a different way. I loved the final scene at the hospital. Mass Market Paperback

It Was Time For A Showdown - Texas Lawman Style

It wasn't the first time danger had come to his ranch, but for Deputy Mason Ryland it was the final straw. Someone had been targeting his family for too long and the brooding lawman now had a new person to protect: horse trainer Abbie Baker.

His newest employee's arrival suspiciously coincided with the latest attack, and it wasn't long before he uncovered a decades-old secret between Abbie and the Ryland clan. But as much as that connection rankled, Mason couldn't ignore the fact that someone wanted beautiful Abbie dead. As an upholder of the law, he'd keep her safely tucked by his side through the investigation. As a man, he'd offer his personal protection through the endless summer nights....

The last Ryland!! Just as wonderful as I expected. Mason was the brooding brother not easily enticed into conversation or babysitting. I loved how Boone got brought back into the fold in this one. Even if it may have caused problems between Mason and Abby. Abby had secrets she didn't want anyone to know and she may have just happen to have brought trouble to Ryland Ranch. The trouble on the Ranch could also still be stemming from Lynette's father's suicide. The Ryland's have sure had their share of trouble and PASSION!

Heck, he just went for it. “I want to marry you,” Mason blurted out. The sea of streaming Rylands froze, and once again, all eyes were on them. Abbie just stared, too. And she was holding her breath. She had a frozen look on her face. “Say yes so we can go home,” Dade complained. Grayson leaned in. “Say yes only if it’s what you want to say,” he said using his big-brother tone. “Make him suffer a little bit first,” Gage joked. Mason gave them all dirty looks. “Can we have some privacy here?” “No,” they answered in unison. “Say yes, Abbie.” Mass Market Paperback Mason is one of six brothers who all work as lawmen and run different areas of their Silver Creek Ranch.
