BOOK REVIEW- LIP SERVICE (Lone Star Sisters #2)


BOOK REVIEW- LIP SERVICE (Lone Star Sisters #2)-Skye Titan's wealthy father thinks he can still dictate his daughter's choice in men. Now widowed and a single mother, Skye isn't the yes-girl she once was. Especially since the love of her life is back in Texas after eight long years. He won't like the answers to the questions he's asking. About why she left him at the altar. And about her eight-year-old daughter.  Former Navy SEAL Mitch Cassidy comes home to find nearly everything different. His wounds from battle have changed the way people treat him. His cattle ranch is suddenly organic. But time hasn't touched his desire for Skye—or the sting of her betrayal. Forget lip service. He's asking that luscious mouth of hers to reveal the truth. But will Mitch be able to put the past aside to help Skye get out from under her father's thumb…and help himself recover from a broken heart?  AMAZON I'm giving it a 4 Star rating on Amazon.  

This story I found was okay, there was a lot of angst, feelings of betrayal and lost time.  An emotional ride.  It was good to hear their story after having read some in the other books.    Is it my favorite of the series?  No, I don't think so, but it was pretty good.   Why do I say that?  It was pretty good when the author showed the "rage" that Mitch was going through.  Rage at Skye for having no backbone, for dumping him to do her father's bidding, for being with another man instead of him.  Rage at the loss of his mobility, adjusting to a new way of walking.  Rage at how his ranch had changed almost beyond his recognition while he was gone. Yep, a whole lot of rage.   And Skye I kept waiting for her to grow her backbone too.  And it does happen, you have to read the book to see the how and why of it.  Skye's daughter was a nice addition to the story too.
