In Cold River, sometimes forbidden love is the sweetest of them all...

Perennial good girl Amanda Kittredge knows that her longtime crush on Brady Everett was never really supposed to go anywhere. But when Brady comes home to Cold River during Amanda's first attempt at independence, well, who better to teach her about rebellion than her older brother's bad-boy best friend?

Brady's plans did not include being forced to work the family homestead for a year--and yet, here he is. And, to make matters worse, his best friend's innocent little sister is making a menace of herself in the most grown-up, tempting ways. When Amanda begs Brady to teach her about men, he knows he should refuse. But could Brady's greatest temptation be his salvation?

Amanda wants to finally break out of the childish hold her family seems to have on her. Brady is less then thrilled that he has to be back in his home town and work on his family's homestead. He has even more of a challenge with being in down when it seems his friends little sister is apparently all grown up and looking to tempt him. Amanda is on a mission to assert her independence and looking for her older brothers best friend to teach her a few things if only she can convince him that shes no longer a child.

This book will turn out how you expect it and will still be entirely enjoyable at the same time. This was pretty big on how the family was and seeing Amanda breaking out that mode. Clearly her family cares about her, but her brothers even at the age that she was still were overprotective. Amanda is tired of it and it was interesting seeing how she went about it. I enjoyed getting to know Amanda and Brady, seeing the attraction, interaction, and steamy scenes. Overall this was a pretty good contemporary romance and I really enjoyed reading it.
