From The Back:
Saddle up for romance and adventure with the Wilde sisters!
Shannon Wilde is the middle sister--and the one who loves animals. She's established her own homestead and is raising sheep for their wool. Things are going fine...until Shannon gets swept over a cliff by Matthew Tucker!
Tucker seizes every opportunity to get away from civilization, but one particular walk in the woods ends with him sprinting away from an angry grizzly and plunging into a raging river, accidentally taking Shannon Wilde with him. Their adventure in the wilderness results in the solitary mountain man finding himself hitched to a young woman with a passel of relatives, a homestead, and a flock of sheep to care for.
As Tucker and Shannon learn to live with each other, strange things begin to happen on Shannon's land. Someone clearly wants to drive her off, but whoever it is apparently didn't count on Tucker. Trying to scare Matthew Tucker just makes him mad--and trying to hurt the woman he's falling in love with sets off something even he never expected.

My Reflections:
Hold onto you cowboy hats girls this is one tough and tumble story. I was thrilled to read Connealy's second book in her series "Wild At Heart" It was every bit as good as her first in this series. While it would be ideal to read these in order I feel this one could be a stand alone as there is enough detail and background information added to fill the reader in.
Matthew Tucker is the strong, stubborn and rugged hero who win's the heart of Shannon, who right from the start falls head over heels for him, or was that into a raging river? Oh yes! From the start of this book the action gets rolling and the adrenaline kicks into high gear, you will not be sorry you picked this book up.
Shannon Wilde the middle sister is a sheep loving firecracker who is sensitive yet knows how to keep moving when life gets hard. She inspires and encourages and knows when to accept help, even though she would just assume get it done herself. This girl is no wilting wall flower, she knows how to take care of herself! She like her other two sisters all served in the Civil war disguised as men. This has left her with scars seen and unseen, and Matthew Tucker may just be the man who can soften some of Shannon's edges.
a splendid read, perfect for a summer kick off. This is a sit by the river kind of book, you will loose yourself withing the pages of this one!
It is always a pleasure to read Mary Connealy's novels, she is truly one of my favorite authors!
