But the sight of the magnificent animal shimmering in the moonlight sobered her up quick. Now, it haunts her dreams, luring her towards aloof cowboy, Maverick Cambios-Plata. Maverick is known for his calming presence around the abused horses at his rescue. The effect he has on Evangeline is far different. Her body aches to be near him, to learn all the secrets she can sense he\u2019s keeping hidden.<\/p>\n<p>Maverick avoids ranch guests, preferring the companionship of the horses. Yet when Evangeline arrives, he finds himself drawn to her. She invades his every thought, a lasso of attraction pulling him to her. But it\u2019s his responsibility to preserve a legacy only a select few know of, and he can\u2019t risk the distraction.<\/p>\n<p>With both Evangeline and Maverick harboring secrets, will revealing the truth offer them a chance at a beautiful future or destroy any chance the two may have had?<br \/>\nBook One in this paranormal horse shifter series<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6166\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png?resize=113%2C51\" alt=\"\" width=\"113\" height=\"51\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/53241546-thunderstruck\">Goodreads <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6156\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png?resize=158%2C45\" alt=\"\" width=\"158\" height=\"45\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=twintalk-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B087C9QTKG&amp;asins=B087C9QTKG&amp;linkId=57cec196f974eaabf90b61c7c40cd70a&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/angies-review.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6154\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/angies-review.png?resize=230%2C50\" alt=\"\" width=\"230\" height=\"50\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I received this book for free from the author for an honest review.<\/p>\n<p>Paranormal is my jam so when I saw Anna was starting a new series, I jumped at reading it.\u00a0 I was like Horse shifters?\u00a0 Huh?\u00a0 Cowboys too?\u00a0 HRMM\u00a0 My interest was piqued.<\/p>\n<p>When I opened the book and read where the concept came from, I was like OHHHH This was be a story with great imagery.\u00a0 I was not let down by the image that Anna paints for us of the cabins, lodging, family style vacation Lily is having.<\/p>\n<p>When the story starts, we know Lily is sad and hiding from life.\u00a0 She slowly opens and we find out her story of loss and guilt over the loss of her husband.\u00a0 We see Lily enjoying life at the ranch and embracing the lifestyle while also wondering If she will every return the city life.<\/p>\n<p>Maverick\/Mav\/Rick is the grumpy but hot alpha cowboy on the ranch.\u00a0 He slowly starts to spend time with Lily which the family is super excited about because Mav does not do people.\u00a0 LOL\u00a0 Remember he is a broody male.<\/p>\n<p>We see Lily and Rick spending time together and forming deep connections.\u00a0 We see Lily struggle to open to him and we see him fear for his secret.\u00a0 He is falling in hard and deep for this feisty woman but he fears rejection at what he is.<\/p>\n<p>When the story unfolds and everything is laid out on the table, Lily finds out a lot about herself and Rick.\u00a0 She must make some decisions and face her past.<\/p>\n<p>I so loved the story.\u00a0 The family and their resolve to make sure everyone is taken care of.\u00a0 The way the family opens to Lily and is hopeful for the relationship they can all see developing.\u00a0 I am so excited for more in the series.\u00a0 I think watching Keller fall might be the best since he was giving Rick so much of a hard time over Lily.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6153\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png?resize=231%2C55\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"55\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For 25 years, I&#8217;ve worked as a sports writer.
