Stand-In Daddy Rancher is inline with everything that I expect from Harlequin's Love Inspired books. The struggle is hard, the romance is sweet, and I know I'm not giving anything away here by saying the ending is a happy one albeit predictable... But it's romance, right? And it's a beautiful one.
This is my first experience with author Renee Ryan. I have to tell y'all, she's a pleasure. She jumps into the heart of the story and engaged me before I knew it, and she made the book feel like the comfort of home, while delivering a story that was anything but. That's what we want in our Harlequin's, right ladies? ( )

"4 out of 5 stars! About 5 years ago, Molly met CJ (Cornelius) and was instantly smitten; however, because she wasn’t sure he returned her affections so she married someone else. Now over a year after her husband passed away, she is back living on her family’s ranch and trying to make the best of things. Molly’s days are consumed by taking care of CJ’s young nieces who are without a mother. Though things get a lot harder when CJ’s brother (and father to the girls) decides on leaving custody of the girls to CJ and takes off to places unknown. In doing so, Molly and CJ become closer and their once chance on love might be able to ignite again … if only Molly could get over her past hurts and open her heart to the possibility of a better future, and if people in town don’t keep them apart for good.

This was a heartwarming tale that reels you in to its characters and its town/series. With an intriguing plotline that holds plenty of character antics, it’ll keep you entertained the whole way through. My only wish was that..."
