Home on the Range: A Novel (Double S Ranch #2)by Ruth Logan Herne
This story is book 2 of 3 in the Double S Ranch Series. I read book 1 last year and really enjoyed it, especially since I love “series” type books. I was disappointed however in this book because it did not keep my interest like the first book did. I liked the main character Nick and his daughters because I read about them in book 1, but I couldn’t get into the other main character Dr Elsa. I felt like she was described way too weird and unrelatable. I actually didn’t finish reading the book because it just didn’t keep my interest.
Home on the Range is a western, christian romance story. It has good reviews online so it may be something of interest to others, but it wasn’t for me.
I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

About the Book:
Can the brother left behind and a woman without hope work together for the good of two precious children?
Nick Stafford stayed in central Washington, working his family’s large ranch after his brothers left to pursue other passions—but his toughest job is being a single dad. As a child he watched his father fail at marriage and parenting, so Nick was determined to show him up. He’d be a better husband, father, and ranch manager than Sam Stafford ever was. Despite that commitment, three years after Nick’s wife left him, he has a daughter in trouble at school and both of his girls are facing issues that force him to rethink his stubborn plans.
For Dr. Elsa Andreas, life fell apart when tragedy caused her to abandon her family therapy practice and retreat to the backwoods of Gray’s Glen. Her school principal sister believes Elsa can guide the Stafford girls and that working with kids will draw Elsa out of her protective bubble.
Summer on the Double S teems with life and adventure. Amid the bounty of God and land, will Nick and Elsa find the courage to build futures based on faith rather than fear?
