Nora Roberts #47: Boundary Lines

This is a good Nora Roberts modern western. Jillian Baron and Aaron Murdock's family have adjoining ranches, and the feud between the two spreads has gone back for generations. Now Jillian and Aaron are in charge of their respective ranches and they find they are drawn to each other despite the age old feud that has nothing to do with them. Aaron breaks down Jillian's barriers and becomes her tower of strength when cattle rustlers begin stealing and butchering her cattle. Though she resists falling in love, in the end she cannot resist the genuineness of Aaron's love for her. Aaron is a good strong male character and Jillian is a strong woman. Nothing annoying about her like many novels tend to do to the female character. Give it a read; it's a good one.

I selected this book from my local library and I did enjoy it. I am a true Nora fan and I plan to read all of her books.The main characters, Jillian and Aaron are very likable. Jillian is a woman that is determined to run her ranch despite the fact that she is "new" to the ranching lifestyle. Aaron returns home after five years away and is bowed over by Jillian's beauty. It is a classic of boy sees girl, girl sees boy but doesn't want boy to know that she is interested for the time being. The story is set in Montana on a ranch and brings in the western lifestyle. I enjoy wondering how she will bring the two main characters together. It is fun book to read on a lazy day. If you read this book, you may want to read Montana Sky also written by Nora that is set on a ranch.
