THE DEVIL IN THE SADDLE Princes of Texas, Book 2

Hallie Prince's drunken wailings kick-start this Texas ranch romance, narrated by Tieran Wilder. Rafe Fontana, son of the Princes' ranch manager, saves Hallie from a DUI and falls more deeply in love with her than ever. As Hallie recovers from her ex-fiancé's cheating, she finally realizes how lucky she's been to have Rafe as a lifelong friend. Hallie and Rafe both sport fun Southern twangs, which are distinctive without being overdone. Hallie's despair sometimes borders on whiny, which seems realistic given her privileged upbringing. Wilder gives Rafe a deep, genuine voice with a guarded edge reflecting his worry about overstepping the bounds of friendship. Listeners will soon realize Hallie and Rafe are made for each other and enjoy their bumpy road to a loving relationship. C.A. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2019]
