World champion bull rider, Braden ‘Bear” Anderson is a Montana legend in and out of the arena, but when a horrifying accident in Tulsa leaves him fighting for his life, many fear for Bear’s future. Determined to live independently, he hires a design company to remodel his luxury log cabin to accommodate his new needs, but when he arrives, and the work does not meet his specifications, he furiously fires the crew.
Josie Calhoun is no stranger to challenge. A passionate advocate for universal design after growing up with a younger brother with special needs, she’s determined to ensure that Bear’s cabin is everything he needs and wants. Bear is fierce, but Josie’s not intimidated and immediately gets to work. She soon realizes Bear needs more than an accessible home, he needs a new purpose.
Josie’s family objects to how much time she spends with Bear, but she’s never been happier. Bear knows he doesn’t deserve Josie, and thinks he should push her out the door. But can he let go of the best part of his life?
My Review:
A powerful love story.
From the first few pages, I knew this book was going to be
special. It is truly some of Jane Porter’s
best work. A fabulous romance/women’s
fiction story about Bear, a paraplegic former rodeo star who was injured during
a bull riding event. He feels he is
unworthy of love because he will be a burden to anyone who falls in love with
him. But then he met Josie, who had her
own struggles growing up and has two handicapped family members. She knows what it takes to love someone in Bear’s
condition. The story takes you on an emotional
roller-coaster as Bear and Josie get to know each other and eventually fall in
love.
I highly recommend this book. It is a heartfelt and emotional story about how far someone will go for love. There is another author, who has had many books turned into movies, I don’t know if I can say his name, but his initials are N.S. This book has all the feels of one of his books/movies where you are taken on an emotional journey through an unforgettable love story.
