Blurb

A tall, dark, single dad Texas rancher finds himself facing more than his stubbornly silent son when the chupacabra, a supposedly mythical blood-sucking beast, starts killing his livestock—and stalking the town’s newly returned veterinary assistant, the sensual woman who ran from the altar and broke his heart twelve years earlier. Determined to purge his sizzling memories of her from his all-too-vivid imagination, he seeks her help to get to the bottom of the disturbing animal mutilations, only to have her break through to his sullen son…and rekindle the love he’d thought was lost forever.

 

But her refusal to share a terrible secret sends her running straight into the lair of the chupacabra, plunging her back into her worst nightmare, and forcing them both to confront the wrongs of the past in order to stay alive for the future they desperately want.

 I love, love, love this book; for starters it talks a bit about the chupacabra legend, is supposed to be an "animal" that has the habit of attacking and drinking the blood of livestockt mostly goats. The author used this legend in an amazing way, webbing it with her story and creating something unique.

 

 

Vic Vargas is a rancher, a one of a kind rancher he also runs a bar and just became the proud papá of a teen boy he didn´t knew existed. He works his behind off trying to get close to his boy, but never actually achieves it and knowing taht his long lost love is back in town turn his life into a complete wreck.

 

Laney can´t or forget what hapened the night she and Vic where going to elope to get married, she is trapped in her memories and that is destroying her life and her sanity night by night. The prospect of seeing Vic again is...

 

I adored this book, you guys know how much I like second chances and this one is on top of the list. The plot is certanly not for the faint of heart as it touches several very dark subjects and has really HAWT sex scenes, soooo pls if you are underaged, you know the drill. Sorry =D

 

 

Theres also the coolest curandera "a healer"  Esperanza is all kinds of creepy and she holds the truths to all the questions, the bad thing, she talks in riddles so undertsanding what she say is next to imossible LOL!!!

 

Vic and Laney are really perfect together and their tory is something you guys can´t miss. Misa Ramirez is an amazing storyteller , she used the perfect amount of suspense, mistery, romance and action, to make this story perfect.

 

She is also pretty good at making me guess, there wasa moment in the story that I was pretty sure I had everything figured ou and then... I was WRONG!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thisbook was everything I was expecting and then some, Melisa Bourbon Ramirez is an authoor to look out for. I´ll def. look for her books from now on.
