This is a story driven by the characters. Micah's deep ties to both the Delanys and their ranch are immediately evident. They are the closest thing he has to family and he will do whatever he can to protect them. His attitude is almost a perfect reflection of Tucker's attitude toward him and the ranch. Everything Tucker has done has been to protect his family and Micah. It is his idea of protecting Micah that has put the biggest wedge between the two of them and watching them overcome that is great. These two cannot be in the same room together without sparks flying, no matter who else is around, and they sizzle when alone. But it's not just the heat that will draw readers in, but the tenderness that comes with it.
