Publisher Description
In an erotic new contemporary cowboy romance from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Anne Marsh, wealthy rancher and former SEAL Angel Mendoza goes head to heart with the one woman he could never forget.
“I warned her once—I don’t give warnings twice—that if she ever came back when she was grown up, she’d be mine. She flipped me off and told me I wasn’t the boss of her. She was playing with fire and she knew it, but she also thought she was safe. Off-limits. Taboo. She hadn’t figured out that the only rules I played by were my own.” ~ Angel Mendoza</p>
When I come home to Lonesome, California, I’m expecting to inherit a house and a fresh start on my crappy life—not a hard-eyed cowboy. Angel Mendoza is more devil than saint. He’s also richer than God and a sexy a*****e to boot. I have no business wanting to get close to him. He’s got a few plans of his own, too—like getting into my bed and my body. Heart optional.
Angel’s need for total control in bed shocks and thrills me, but giving in and letting go isn’t easy. Despite everything he owns—the land, the vast wealth, the loyal cowboys who run his cattle—Angel is tormented by demons. He’ll give me his body, but never his secrets… or his heart.

STRIPPED DOWN-A CAPTIVATING ROMANTIC STORY
This story focuses on Angel, a heart-stopping gorgeous cowboy, ex-soldier, and wealthy ranch owner; Rose, a sassy, blonde beauty and tattoo artist.
What you'll find in this story; a cast of impressive and engaging characters, fantastic story-line, picturesque and dynamic vivid scene descriptions, phenomenal banter, pent-up tension, heart-rending moments, family love, emotions spiral, earth-shattering toe-curling sensual romance, and a melt your heart ending leaving you wanting more.
Rose left Lonesome, Ca. when she was sixteen, and Angel told her she was his if she ever returned. Angel never contacted Rose when she was of age because he wanted her to come to him; he knew she had to come back because her aunt lived in Lonesome. Both of them never really got over their untold romantic feelings. Rose’s aunt has passed on, leaving half her land to Rose and the other half to Angel. Rose does not want to sell her half as that was her home and she wants to run a tattoo business there too, but Angel needs the land for the water to save his ranch. Angel doesn’t do relationships, but losing Rose again is not an option, and he believes he has a plan to get exactly what he wants.
FABULOUS-fast paced creative read by a gifted author. The characters come alive with fantastic dialogue, humor, and a bit of drama. I loved Angel, though he was a tough alpha male he did have a sweet side, and I loved Rose's sassiness. The romance sizzles to a slow passionate burn, and is filled with undying devotion. This was a enjoyable read, loved it. If you treasure fantasy romance this is certainly a good book for your library. I was gifted this book, and this is my honest review. In the world of fantasy romance the possibilities are endless and always fascinating. Without reservations I recommend this book.
