—“I have read the series of ” The Wilde”; books full of strong family minded men. They care and love their women. Lorhainne Eckhart is one of my favorite writers, she never disappoints her fans.” –“Interesting story line for both environmentalists and pipeline companies. Ben Wilde finds out that the man he respects and works for is a weasel. Fortunately the man who owns the B&B he is staying at, is a reformed weasel who understands how to win this battle. Always enjoyable and emotional. Stories and characters will resonate with the reader, some more strongly than others” The name Ben Wilde means something in the oil and gas industry. Admired as one of the top ten bachelors in Idaho, he’s a man who has it all…except when it comes to love. That is, until he meets Carrie Richardson: an environmentalist, a fiery blond beauty, and an absolute thorn in his side. After Ben arrives in her hometown to give a presentation on a pipeline project that will provide jobs and clean energy (with an innovative, safe approach), Carrie spits on him! She’s not buying it, and Ben soon learns that she is none other than the spokesperson for the group that has aggravated him throughout the entire project. The advice about keeping your friends close and your enemies closer backfires on Ben and Carrie, though, because the fact is that they want each other badly. However, Carrie can’t let her community down—and Ben has a job to do.
