“Fresh, fun and oh-so-romantic, WILD HEARTS had me galloping through the pages. I absolutely loved it.” ~ Lauren Barnholdt, author of TWO-WAY STREET and DEVON DELANEY

Enjoy Wild Hearts and the other standalone titles in Bloomsbury’s contemporary If Only romance line centered around an impossible problem: you always want what you can’t have!

Brie Carter’s father’s land development business has taken her family all over the world, but as soon as they arrive at their new home in Lost Spring, Wyoming, the town turns out to protest. They don’t want a new hotel if the resident mustang population will be displaced or hurt as part of the deal. Then Brie meets Logan, a gorgeous local who has a special connection to the mustangs, and she is immediately drawn to him . . . and the horses. However, with Logan’s father leading the protests and Brie’s father refusing to budge, it’s clear that their parents are heading towards an all-out war. Can Brie and Logan find a way to save the mustangs and be together? Or is their love doomed from the start?

This new title in the If Only line is the perfect summer read and proves that love flourishes in the wildest places!

From Kirkus Reviews:

Brie is used to constant travel; she’s not accustomed to caring passionately about a cause—or a young man. Brie’s dad is a land developer, so they move from place to place worldwide. Home-schooled, Brie has never made attachments. When she and her parents move to a one-main-street town in Wyoming, the welcome is frosty, as its citizens protest the uprooting of the wild mustangs for the hotel Brie’s dad is building. The loudest opponent is the father of a handsome, kind, cowboy-hatted boy named Logan. This quickly becomes more than a budding romance between Brie and Logan, as they take up the cause to create a sanctuary for the mustangs. She finds within herself a stirring love for the horses and a deep desire to do something good. However, caught in the middle of the heated battle, this is the first time Brie has contradicted her father and the first time she’s fallen in love. Burkhart’s uncluttered prose easily develops both characters and complications, making for a smooth-reading romance. Each chapter is headed with a pithy quote—”Cowboy proverb: The bigger the buckle, the better the cowboy”—lending light wisdom to the tale. This inspiring look at the plight of undomesticated landscape and wildlife nestled in a tender romance is a surprisingly sweet and resonant story. (Fiction. 12-18)

WILD HEARTS is available NOW for pre-order in hardcover and paperback with audio book coming soon! It releases on May 5, 2015!

Thank you Lauren, Kirkus, Laura Whitaker–my editor of awesome, Sarah Shumway, the Bloomsbury Team and to my Harts!

    Each workout should be intense and only be about
    an hour long. Like a regular bench press, the only real difference is that you should have your hands around
    6 inches apart on the bar while performing the exercise.

    It doesn’t really matter whether you are seated or standing while
    performing the exercise.

    Make sure to stretch your muscle before, and after each set.

    s bodily composition is so different from the other, it
    is highly important that you do some research and find a
    product that will be really effective for you. This is a general
    rule, but depending on your entire muscle building routine, you’ll
    need to vary your training.

    however exercise reduces the amount that is present.

    Still another diet plan tells you that you can’t eeat fruit after 2 pm.
    you see joggers with grmaces oon their faces; even walkers seem tto be unpleasantly
    completing a task. They’re just regurgitating information found somewhere
    else on the Internet and don’t provide you with adequate foundational details to comprehend what is causing your symptoms.

    Protein shots are an awesome means for athletes, medical patients,
    dieters and anyone who doesn. We grow our organic echinacea for Echinamide
    products on our very own farms, located in the Okanagan region of British Columbia.
    Understanding consumer demand is the only correct way to do a professional consumer market research, in addition no other way.
