A Rancher's Surrender

This was a great story. Jillian and Wade were both strong characters. The book was well written and I loved the Western Historical theme.

I really enjoyed this one! I'm don't usually enjoy historicals but the premise of this one called to me. Strong female lead that is willing to do anything to live her life her way. That's what Jillian Mathews does to get her opportunity to work as the veterinarian she's been trained to be. No she didn't go to school because she wasn't allowed but she worked with her father and was as good as any school trained vet. When she shows up on a Montana ranch she's ready for the rancher's reaction when he finds out she's a woman. She stands firm and fights for her chance. Then when the townspeople start to turn on her, Wade (the rancher) stands by her side ready to protect and claim her as his own. This is a wonderfully written story and one I would definitely recommend.

I really enjoy historical romance novels, and I really liked this one. Jillian is bucking the norms of society by becoming a vet, and Wade didn't realize she was a woman when he hired her to be the new vet for Marietta. Jillian was a wonderful heroine and I love that she refused to back down no matter what road blocks were thrown in her way by narrow-minded townspeople. Wade really grew as a character, being a widower with a young daughter he battled with his feelings and tradition/expectations. Great story!
