Welcome to Saddle Ridge, where life is hard and love is wild…

Maddox

I’m no stranger to hard work. I’ve got a family ranch that’s on the brink of collapse, a grandfather whose health is fading, and a laundry list of other responsibilities that demand my constant attention.

Every sunrise brings a new fight. There’s no time to worry about what might have been with the girl who got away.

But it seems I’ve avoided Amelia King for as long as I can.

One reckless ranch hand making trouble at her bar is more than I can afford. Her outlaw cousin and his gang of gearheads won’t take kindly to the mess my man has made. So I swallow my pride and head into town to make things right.

The moment I spot her, she takes my breath away. Still gorgeous and igniting that familiar fire in my veins, just the sight of her brings back all of my memories. But before I can grab a broom or write a check for the damages, an unexpected phone call interrupts our chaotic reunion.

With my grandfather’s legacy now on the line, I’m desperate to preserve it if it’s the last thing I do. We’re facing an enemy with a dangerous connection to Amelia of all people, and they’re determined to stop me no matter who gets hurt in the process. As the stakes get higher, lives hang in the balance, so I do exactly what my sister begs me not to. Forming an alliance with the Fallen Demons Motorcycle Club could cost my family everything. But there’s something more dangerous than going into business with the outlaws: admitting I’m in love with their vice president’s cousin.

REVIEW: SUN UP TO SUN DOWN by Janine Infante Bosco is the first instalment in the contemporary, adult FALLEN MEADOWS RANCH multi-authored erotic, romance series. This is rancher Maddox Meadows, and bartender/ single mother Amelia King’s story line.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Maddox and Amelia) SUN UP TO SUN DOWN is a second chance story line of love. Maddox Meadows has worked on the family ranch for as long as he can remember, and in the aftermath of his grandfather’s death, Maddox discovers he is now the co-owner along with his sister Della, co-owner of a ranch struggling to survive. Meanwhile, Maddox is battling between head and heart, hating himself for close to thirteen years, for destroying the woman he loved. Believing he was never worthy of Amelia King, Maddox found himself often alone, until the day he made a pledge to win the heart of the woman he loved but all was not well -the ranch was in trouble, and a powerful corporation was taking aim for a piece of the prize.

The world building focuses on greed and betrayal as someone else is determined to take control. Fallen Meadow Ranch is in trouble, and Maddox is willing to make a deal with the Fallen Demons MC, a deal that will change with his sister in charge.

The relationship between Maddox and Amelia is one of second chances. Thirteen years earlier, Maddox walked out of Amelia’s life, pushing her into the arms of someone else. Now a single mother, Amelia is determined to protect her heart and her child from the man she can no longer trust but a man who is willing to protect Amelia with his life. The $ex scenes are intimate and erotic, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters include Maddox’s sister Della, and her soon to be significant other, MC president Shadow King (NIGHT FALL TO FIRST LIGHT), as well as Amelia’s son Dylan, and her ex Russell, ranch manager Tyler Henderson, ranch hands and cowboys Wyatt Morrow, Beau, Grant, Rhett ; and Fallen Demons MC members Lucifer and Shadow.

SUN UP TO SUN DOWN is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, greed and obsession, family and friendships, relationships and love. The character driven premise is edgy and suspenseful; the romance is fated and captivating; the characters are determined and charismatic.
