Cappie breaks into his heart and Bentley finally allows a woman in his life, the two have some very funny moments, which I think was really the only this books saving grace.
Cappie's life has been hard, no insurance for her brother, they have all but liquidated their savings in just trying to survive.
In comes Cappie's ex- boyfriend has just gotten out of jail and is gunning for her, stopping at nothing, even beating a wheel-chair bound Kell (Cappie’s Brother), as well as Cappie. With the help of some familiar character’s coming back, once again I must say the comedy that is supplied in this book is it’s only saving grace, especially between Cappie, her two bodyguards‘! I have to say I laughed out loud! I have to be honest, the only reason I have this book 3 stars was the humor, the story could have been so much better. The heat factor was all but non-exsistant. Otherwise I would have to say 2/5! Yikes, that was actually painful!
New York Times bestselling author Diana Palmer welcomes you back to Jacobsville to become reacquainted with Bentley Rydel. He lives hard and loves fiercely—but sometimes it takes the right woman to make a man a hero. This rugged Texan is going to be Tough to Tame!

When I first started reading romance books I fell in love with Diana Palmer's books. But over the last few years I quit reading her books because they are all the same the hero is mean to the heroine until the very last couple of chapters then he tells her he loves her and all is forgiven. It seems to me that all of her books are the same anymore just different names to the people and sometimes different places.

If I didn't love Diana Palmer as much as I do I would cry! For me even the humor between Chet and Rourke in this book seemed immature! I agree her last few books have been same thing, different name type stories! I've also noticed that her leading men have gotten meaner too! Bentley was way too quick to pass judgement on Cappie after speaking to her ex boyfriend 1 time!!

Good Review!!! I have read a few books from her, and I never really get into them, yet they are still good books to read though!
April 4, 2010 8:22 PMI have read Diana Palmer and put her on the shelf of our library because she is so popular. However, I've never been a big fan. Her stories are OK but not great; and there is so much more out there. There is enough meanness in the world, I don't need it in the heroes of the books I'm reading. Clueless is one thing, being intentionally mean another.
