Book Review of Bright Eyes (Kendrick/Coulter, Bk 5)

Bright Eyes (Kendrick/Coulter, Bk 5)


Zeke Coulter has no intention of getting married---until he buys a ranch next door to Natalie Patterson, a sexy divorcee with two kids, a zany extended family, and a philandering ex-husband involved in shady business dealings. When Natalie's twelve year old son vandalizes Zeke's property and she is unable to pay for the damages, Zeke offers to let the boy work off his debt.

As Zeke struggles to instill a sense of responsibility and self-worth in the troubled youngster, he finds his life being turned upside down by Natalie, whose sultry singing voice and striking eyes disguise her underlying lack of belief in herself or in her dream of becoming a professional singer. With rugged determination, Zeke undertakes to bolster her confidence, revive her ability to trust men...and throughly seduce her. But just as their attraction begins to blossom, a twist of fate gravely threatens their life together...
