Rafe Kincaid has spent years keeping his family's cattle ranch going, all without help from his two younger brothers, who fled the ranch--and Rafe's controlling ways--as soon as they were able. He's haunted by one terrible day at the cave on a far-flung corner of the Kincaid property, a day that changed his life forever. Ready to put the past behind him, he plans to visit the cave one final time. He sure doesn't expect to find a young woman trapped in one of the tunnels--or to be forced to kiss her!
Rafe is more intrigued by Julia than any woman he's ever known, but how can he overlook her fascination with the cave he despises? And when his developing relationship with Julia threatens his chance at reconciliation with his brothers, will he be forced to choose between the family bonds that could restore his trust and the love that could heal his heart?

I was very disappointed in this book. It had the makings of a really good story, but the heroine was an idiot. This woman wasnt strong, she was a selfish,self centered brat and i honestly have no idea why the hero would fall in love with her. Her obsession with fossils was ludicrous in the face of allthe other things going on in the story. And her lack of compassion for Rafes brother Seth did not show her to be much of a Christian. In fact i felt that the author simply threw in a few God references, to make the book qualify as Christian fiction, instead of because she had any real beliefs herself. I would not recommend this book. Glad it was free.

I was surprissd to see so many good reviews on this book. I am glad it was a free dowload. Had I paid money I may have demanded a refund. The story has no flow at all. Just full of choppy sentences. I am only half way tnrough and always finish a book I start so I will finish.

I couldn't put this book down. Connealy is one of my favorite authors and she did it again. The novel is a fun romantic historical comedy with a headstrong and intelligent female lead and a sexy cowboy with a penchant to play hero. I look forward to reading the next one in the series.

This story was well written but seemed to drag on a bit. Clean read with a few kisses and lots of emotional pain all around. This is the first book of the series of the three Kincaid brothers searching for peace and love.

I'm only halfway through, but the heroine is annoying. She's obsessed with the cavern and is coming across as very selfish. I hope by the end of the book she finds some balance.

Very rarely do I not finish a book and this one I couldn't bring myself to continue reading. Felt like it was all over the place "out of control".

The overall story was cute. I did manage to finish it.There were a couple times the plot was a little difficult to follow. A couple times I wanted to strangle the hero and heroine...the communciation between them was confusing.

The first book in another awesome series by Mary Connealy. This is Rafe (the oldest Kincaid brother) and Julia's story. He is the bossy
older brother, who finds a women who will stand up to him and soften his rough edges. The story tell the story of three young boys who have their adult life greatly affected by playing in the caverns as children and pretty much raising themselves. Rafe would just as soon stay out of the caverns for good, but Julia loves to study fossils and so he goes along with her. I love Julia's take on how the fossils got in the caverns. I loved this book and could not wait to read the Ethan's story. This one is a keeper.

I Also Recommend:
A little long................................................................................................................................................................
I think the story was a bit character heavy because in addition to telling the Rafe and Julia story the author was setting up her next two books. It was probably good marketing but not necessarily good story telling. Too much of a good thing is not good. This is where an editor should come in. Still it was an OK story.
