Title: Backlash

Stars: 2 1\2 Stars
Review:
Lisa Jackson tells readers right away this was written back in the 1980's and readers will be able to see the amazing growth the author has come though.
The men in the stories are rough and demanding. They grab and take what they want even though the women are suffering the loss of their innocents youth. The story is a second chance romance. The romance comes off forced, demanding and lot most pushing to the women.
The mystery is second or third to the romance. The Colton Brothers are jerks and do not change has the stories develop.
The story lacks drive and focus other than punishing the woman they love. The stories are not what readers have come to know about Lisa Jackson now.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher Zebra for the advance copy of Lisa Jackson Backlash
Synopsis:
The ranch country of Montana is beautiful, unforgiving, and for Colton and Denver McLean, filled with a whole lot of bad memories. It’s been seven years since a fire claimed their parents’ lives and drove both brothers away. Now their uncle’s death has brought them back to a place where loyalty and love runs deep—but so do grudges.
Suspicion still swirls about what caused that tragic fire. It created a rift between Denver and the foreman’s daughter, Tessa Kramer. Now Tessa hopes to buy the ranch, if Denver and Colton will agree to sell, but the property is beset by problems. A prized stallion disappears. Other horses start falling sick. Someone seems determined to disrupt—or destroy—the McLean family’s legacy by any means necessary. And finding answers will turn this homecoming into a time of reckoning with enemies past and present .
