Blade Hamilton is the last of his line. He's never even heard of Crossroads, Texas, until he inherits land there. Riding in on his vintage Harley-Davidson, Blade finds a weathered ranch house, an empty prairie and a dark river that cuts a decisive path between the Hamiltons' land and that of their estranged neighbors.
When Dakota helps a stranger on the roadside, she isn't prepared for the charisma of the man on the motorbike—or for the last name he bears: Hamilton, of her family's sworn enemies, representing all she's been raised to loathe. The problem is, it looks like Blade is in town to stay, and there's something about his wolf-gray eyes she just can't ignore.
Lauren Brigman feels adrift. Unhappy in work and unlucky in love, she knows she ought to be striving for more, but she's never truly at peace unless she's at home in Crossroads. If the wider world can't satisfy her, is home truly where her heart is?

MY REVIEW
This is a series that I am thoroughly enjoying the more and more I read of it. You have Ransom Canyon which is where all of the novels in this series are based but this series is more following different characters who live in the Canyon in each novel. Sometimes there are some crossovers and sometimes not. You might get 'cameos' of other characters from previous novels crop up at some point. This is a series that you can dip in and out of as and when you choose.
In this story we follow Blake Hamilton as he returns to town to inspect the land and house that he has inherited. His family has a past here in Ransom Canyon that he is now about to figure out. There is a long standing 'fued' between his family next door that started decades previously. Even though we are following Blake's side of the story, we are following the story on the 'other side of the fence' also with Dakota who meets Blake for the first time when he comes to inspect his land.
What I loved the most was the romance and conflict between the Hamiltons and the family on the other side of the 'feuding fence'. Clearly, there is a past between the two families but also, clearly, there is a lot of chemistry between Blake and Dakota that only time will tell.
This is not a story that I could binge read
from book 1 to the very end. I find the stories can be very 'samey'
when you get to this book in the series. That doesn't mean that it
isn't good. It is. I have found that I need to pick up the next novel
in the series, read that and then leave the series a bit before I dip
into the next one.
