New
York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan’s page-turning Dark Horse Dive
Bar series continues with this story of love lost... and found… as a widow
seeking to heal her heart crosses paths with a rancher/bartender who offers her
a taste of adventure.
Welcome to the Dark Horse Dive Bar, where the Wildes throw one hell of a
party and love could be a barstool away!
Landscape artist, Layla Brock, knows what it feels like to love someone so
completely you’d do anything for them—even take their secrets to the grave.
Widowed after her husband’s betrayals and tragic death, Layla is searching for
a new scene to paint, a new life to live. And Wyoming feels like the perfect
place to get lost and find herself again.
Jax Wilde runs the family ranch, but has a few side hustles: wrangling his
sisters, covering shifts at the Dark Horse Dive Bar, and renting out cabins to
tourists looking for the ranch experience. His busy schedule, plus a bad
breakup, equals no personal life. And then she showed up. And the woman
he thought he had nothing in common with turned out to be his perfect match.
Layla knows what it feels like to lose everything. Jax is a man who wants it
all—a wife, children, a life filled with happy memories. It’s a beautiful
picture of a life Layla thought she’d had but turned out to be a lie. This
could be her second chance…
Until her secrets begin to unravel and a new threat is revealed. There’s one
difference this time: she has Jax Wilde on her side…

This is the second book in the series – and I loved it!
The moment Jax and Layla see each other, they are smitten, and somehow the
filter is off and they tell each other how they feel – completely out of
character for both of them, but they just can't help it... such fun and
original when most books thrive on lack of communication.
That is not to say that they don't have issues from their past relationships,
and struggle to trust, but they both recognise that this is special and so are
patient with each other and affirm their attraction and constancy.
I found Layla's artist's eye a refreshing way for us to imagine Wyoming, and
the beauty around her; this is undoubtedly down to the talent of the author,
that this is so vivid and compelling. I liked the touch about not being her
work until she signs it, and that happens only as she is about to deliver the
work. It was such a strong contrast to Jax's world of running a working and
holiday ranch and a lively bar with his family.
This was a really good story with lots of layers, with a passionate romance for
a super hot and sexy couple at the middle of it.
New
York Times and USA Today bestselling author JENNIFER RYAN writes
suspenseful contemporary romances about everyday people who do extraordinary
things. Her deeply emotional love stories are filled with high stakes and
higher drama, love, family, friendship, and the happily-ever-after we all hope
to find.
Jennifer lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband and three
children. When she finally leaves those fictional worlds, you’ll find her in
the garden, playing in the dirt and daydreaming about people who live only in
her head, until she puts them on paper.
