Book Description:
Book 1 of 3: McKettrick Men Series: Jesse's story

A new generation of McKettrick men stake claim to their land -- and the women they love...

Like his celebrated ancestors who tamed the wilds of Arizona, Jesse McKettrick's Indian Rock ties run deep. The Triple M Ranch is in his blood, along with the thrill of risk. But with his land at stake, Jesse won't get involved in Cheyenne Bridges's scheme -- despite the temptation she brings.

Cheyenne grew up in Indian Rock and left its painful memories behind to become a self-made woman. Now her job is to convince Jesse to sell his property. Jesse's not the kind of man Cheyenne could ever forget, but he's too wild and dangerous for a woman committed to playing it safe. Yet sparks of attraction fly, tempting Cheyenne to lay it all on the line for the passion she sees in Jess's eyes.

What a charming story. Always nice to read about a handsome, easy-going cowboy that's rich and can gamble all day!! He has two other guy-friends in the series that are heartbreakers, too. Be sure to check out McKettrick's Heart and McKettrick's Pride along with this one.

The first of a new trilogy about the 21st century McKettrick cousins - Jesse, Rance and Keegan who have decended from the original McKettrick brothers in Indian Rock, Arizona.

For some reason all the McKettrick men scream "Hot!" and I love reading about them. I've been a long time Lael fan and love her writing style and all of her books. Definatey was happy with this one as well.

The first of a new trilogy about the 21st century McKettrick cousins - Jesse, Rance and Keegan who have decended from the original McKettrick brothers in Indian Rock, Arizona.

Jesse is a rancher (of sorts). His family owns the Triple M Ranch as well as a worldwide conglomorate called McKettrickCo. Jesse is happy collecting his dividend checks and gambling to pass the time. Cheyenne Bridges grew up in Indian Rock, and left its painful memories to become a self-made woman. SHe returns to Indian Rock to try and convince Jesse to sell some land to her boss's company for multiple millions of dollars. Her commission on this sale would make her family's financial future secure - which it isn't now with her mother unemployed and her brother a parapalegic. If she fails, her boss's company will fail as well and she will have nothing.

An interesting story of one man who could care less (but of course is smitten by Cheyenne)and one woman whose future depends on being able to close the sale (in which case she surely loses Jesse).

Loved the entire series. Miller writes so down to earth. All three of these cousins are quite the catch. Not sure which of the three is my favorite but Jessie would be hard not to love. They are all different yet all so much alike.

Highly recommend this series

First book in the "McKettrick Men" series. This series is the current-day stories of the McKettricks of Indian Rock, Arizona - the direct descendants of the founders of the Triple M ranch (McKettrick's Choice, Secondhand Bride). A great read for all L.L. Miller fans.
