Katianne James meets her match in Egan Winthrop . Neither are what they seem like. Egan is a rancher but was so much more than that. Kati was a writer but Egan judged her based on the books she wrote. Finally they talked an realized they had the wrong idea about each other.
An Uncompromising Westerner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Proud rancher Egan Winthrop was certain that his sister's friend, Katriane, was just like the women in her romance novels. How else could she pen dozens of love scenes in such intimate detail? Unfortunately, Egan was sorely mistaken. Most of what Katriane knew about relationships she'd discovered in books and Egan scared her witless! At least, that's what she thought. Why else did she tremble whenever the big man came near, her heart pounding with awareness? She couldn't be in love with Egan - or could she?
An excellent Palmer

I've been reading romances for nearly 40 years, and Diana Palmer is one of my favorite romance writers. Yes, her stories can be similar and her characters as well. But she's always reliable, and I always feel the chemistry between her characters. When I want a quick sweet read, a Diana Palmer is my first choice. For me, this is among her best, if not the best. For whatever reason it resonates with me, and I know I've reread it dozens of times in the past 24 years since it came out. Yes, Egan needed a good solid butt kick sometimes. Yes, Kati needed to polish her big-girl shoes and give it to him. But the "misunderstanding" aspect works for me, because they're both competent *single* people who are terrified of having their emotions mangled. Been there! It makes you slightly irrational. But both the scene at the breakfast table when she is about to leave... and then on the rug later... Whew! Mmm mmm mmm. And I love his answer when she says "You don't know how many books I've read this in."
Couldn't Put It Down !

I loved this book! For all of you Diana Palmer fans out there, this book is a must read! The chemistry between Katriane- (the romance writer) and Egan- (the tough rancher) is sizzling. Although I will say that there were times when I just wanted Katriane to smack Egan over the head for his snide remarks, but she gave as good as she got! This is Palmer at her best!
