I loved this story. There is quite a bit going on, and it is in two views but easy to follow.
The characters are all well-developed, and I loved them all. I loved how Jay and Nate fought their attraction and how it was inevitable. The chemistry was perfect.
If you like market managers, creative men, rugged cowboys, new series, Montana, cute kids, sweet romance and some hot man-sex, this is for you
