About this listen

When Sally's husband dies in a freak tractor accident, she is devastated, but not for the reasons most people thought. Secretly, quietly, Sally is glad he is gone, and she detests herself for having such hideous complicated thoughts. Jim had unknowingly broken her dreams, for there was always an undercurrent to her, a mismatched sexual electrical wire that no rancher could ever understand. By the time he had gotten her pregnant, well, she resented him for trapping her into a life she desperately wanted to escape from.

Life as a single mother and reluctant rancher is taking its toll on Sally when a mysterious stranger responds to a help wanted post she placed at the local feed store. Sensing he would be a significant upgrade, she hires him and fires the two worthless ranch hands currently working for her. Besides fulfilling Sally's need for an all-purpose can-do worker, Ramiro also proves to be good at helping her family rebuild itself. To her surprise, Sally finds herself falling in love with Ramiro, but resists acting on her feelings for fear of being rejected and causing the resulting awkwardness to ruin what they have. How could she know that fate has other plans?

Great short story

I really enjoyed this story. The narrator Terri England did an excellent job of portraying the characters in this story especially with the use of different accents. The storyline was sweet but I wished the author had elaborated a bit more in certain sections. However this was a great story to listen too via audible.

Short but Sweet Love Story

The narrator did a good job. For such a quick read, it managed to leave a lasting impression—a sweet, fleeting romance that leaves you wanting a little more. An enjoyable, yet somewhat bittersweet journey.

I enjoyed more than I thought I would!

First of all, I would like thank the narrator for giving me the chance to listen to this book. I loved her take on a Western accent. The story itself was great. I thought it had a steady pace, especially given the length, which is not that long. In all honesty, I found the narration to exceed my expectations. As a Hispanic, I was so glad to see a Hispanic character. I think both the author and narrator did a great job with foreplay and giving the listener/reader an idea of what is going on. It was clear. It was really great to listen to while I was in the car and I finished it while waiting for my sisters to come out of choir practice. It kept my attention from start to finish. I really liked the slow build of the story. The character didn't fully accept being in love until later, and yet it all worked perfectly. Really great story.
