3.5 stars

This is one easy to read, well written book, with a likeable hero and heroine. Whilst this might not be my favourite read by the author, it is still a hot and sexy story. I felt the story was a little 'tell' rather than 'show' at first, so that the relationship between Luc and Melody almost seemed to come out of nowhere. However once the pair were in said relationship the emotion flowed readily through the story and I found their love very believable. They shared a deep connection and have a very passionate relationship. Luc might call Melody 'mouse' but she is no doormat heroine, even though she allows him to spank her. Luc is hugely caring of Melody and puts her above all else.

There was a very slight timeline discrepancy around Julie's appointment to cook an 'audition meal'.  It was arranged for the next day, but then we had the passage of a couple of weeks before the meal was cooked.  However it really didn't affect the flow of the story or my enjoyment of it.

This is a book where the couple have a domestic discipline relationship, with Luc being the dominant partner and Melody submitting to his will. He does spank her as punishment for poor/foolish/dangerous behaviour. If that will offend you then this might not be the book for you. However if you read with an open mind, and remember that Melody willingly agrees to this set up, you will find a very steamy read with a couple who care very deeply about each other.

BLURB

After she takes a job at the Crooked Creek ranch, Melody Jackson quickly hits it off with handsome cowboy Luc Girard, and it isn't long before she is begging shamefully for more as the ridiculously sexy rodeo champion gives her the ride of her life. But Luc is the kind of man who expects to be obeyed, and when Melody's disregard for his instructions puts her in danger, she soon learns the hard way that he will not hesitate to punish her bare bottom both inside and out.

Luc's stern correction leaves Melody blushing crimson yet deeply aroused, and her need for him only increases as he claims her ever more thoroughly over the coming weeks. But when she is finally forced to reveal the secret she has been keeping from her employers, will Melody end up losing not only her job but also the man who has both mastered her body and tamed her heart?

Publisher's Note: Tamed on the Ranch is a stand-alone sequel to Taming His Cowgirl. It includes spankings and sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.
