As I continue my journey through Jude's book we meet the Chandler Twins.
Book Description

Happily betrothed to Dr. Lee Westfield, Houston is every bit the good girl she was raised to be. So when faced with Kane Taggert’s brash marriage proposal, Houston is outwardly shocked. But beneath her gracious demeanor lies a woman of hidden longings—and her defenses begin to melt the second this rugged stranger touches his hungry lips to hers.

My Thoughts
Let me start by saying that this book gave me a Beauty and the Beast vibe.
Houston is the proper daughter who does everything she is told including marry the perfect guy. But Houston is not sure she will be a good wife because she doesn't like being touched by Lee. This gives her the nickname of Ice Princess. In one last adventure before marriage Houston accepts an invitation from Kane Taggert. An invitation that will change everything.
Kane is like the Beast he is gruff, foul-tempered, and doesn't have any manners. However, one looks at Houston and he decides he wants her. However, to get and keep her he will need to change his ways and he isn't sure he wants to.
I loved this story on so many levels not only did it give me a Belle and Beast vibe but I loved watching Houston blossom as much as I enjoyed Kane being tamed. These two together made the perfect pair because Houston never backed done to Kane. Kane however found himself slowly being tamed by the beauty in his life.
As per Jude's exquisite writing, she brought to life this western town filled with so many people. She weaved a story of passion, intrigue, and love.
