Beth and Daniel's story.
I enjoyed it.
I was sort of heart-broken that neither one of them were able to have more children, which they both seemed to want.
I hate the asshole she was married to before, and I'm honestly glad he's dead.
Yes, I said it.
I hate abusers.

NOTE : Please read Vivian Arend announcement in the end of my review :)
First read : May 2010
Re-read : May 2011... Hooo, one years later to do re-read :P
Because I read this book first rather than the 1st book , [b:Rocky Mountain Heat|6789293|Rocky Mountain Heat (Six Pack Ranch, #1)|Vivian Arend|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1251819040s/6789293.jpg|6992863] and I read it 3 days ago, so I do a re-read :)
First, enjoy this pic first, one of Six Pack cowboys of Six Pack Ranch
Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy ;)
Rocky Mountain Haven told the story of the middle son of Coleman's brother, Daniel Coleman. He met a woman, Beth, when he go to bar to watch his troublemaker younger twins. When he feel attraction for her, and give her his number, she suddenly disappear.
Beth Danube is a widow with 3 boys. She have an injured leg and heart, because her husband abused her physically and mentally. Fortunately for her, his husband died at accident, the accident that make her leg broken too. She already make a new life, move to Rocky Mountain, be a teacher and rented one of Coleman's house. There, she met Daniel, man that she met a months before at bar and she avoid because she's too afraid to involved with men.
Daniel want Beth, but she resist him and just want to be friend. Friend with benefit of course, because Beth is not confidence with her sexuality. She sick with monotone sexual life when she still live with her husband and Daniel voluntarily to help her. While their enganged in sexual relationship, Daniel tried to make Beth heart open to him, because he do care and love her, and help her to face her past and make a new life.
Like the first book, the story in Rocky Mountain Haven is so simple, just another life at ranch. The difference are Beth is mature woman, but with a few sexual experience and still recovered from her horrible life. The problem is usual when the heroine is widow, she will start to love again, finding a man, but afraid it will affect her life and her children. So we will see how Beth resolve her problem. Daniel is alpha, yet beta too. I don't know if he at the same age or younger than Beth, but sure he do accept her, and her children, and want to make family with her. The love scene more steamy than the first book, and it considered erotic, but it sweet, sensual and beautifully written. My problem is Beth swore a lot, for a mother, teacher and -seems to be polite- woman, in and out bed.
I would love to read more Coleman's Brother. There are 4 left, Matt, Travis, and the twins , Joel and Jesse. I'm feel sad when I know the author might be not continued this, but read at her website here :

She will reprint Rocky Mountain Heat and Rocky Mountain Haven under new publisher and expand the story! The first book will be released at November this year, follow with the second book at January, and finally, the next book Rocky Mountain Hope , a brand new story of Six Pack Ranch series (wonder who's brother that will told his story) released at March/April!
If you want a mild erotic contemporary story with western setting and some hot cowboys, put Six Pack Ranch at your wishlist ;)

Well kind of sweet. Issac and Beth fit together though I didn't find the romance to have extreme chemistry. Just a enough to be sweet, not really sexy. This part of the story and seeing the first couple is a 3 1/2 stars but then she puts Matt and Helen's problems into the ending as a psuedo-cliffhanger. It doesn't really matter and is just trying to put some conflict in the story. Along with this, there is Gabe and Rafe's story with their father. I've read on in the books so I know what this pertains to but it only add boredom that takes you out of the main story line. Beth and Issac are sweet but the two other stories might be the reason they don't sizzle more.

I read the re-release of this through Samhain, so thats what I'm reviewing.
My initial impression is awww! Beth and Daniel are so cute together and they're just aww.
How cute was Lance when he called Daniel his dad?
This is a question for those who've read the first two books: Was Helen really a big surprise?

Yes and No. I wasn't surprised she wanted to leave Rocky - I was surprised she was so much a bitch that she cheated on a guy like Matt. I wasn't surprised she was moving away, but the vitirol was extreme.jacquibear's review against another edition

Rocky Mountain Haven—Vivian Arend – Beth and her three young sons find refuge on the Coleman ranch, and snag the attention of Daniel. When they realize that they have a lot more in common than they thought, will it be enough to give them the courage to confront their pasts and grab new futures? Happy Reading!

Really like this series. It's well written with great characters and a good balance of steam and romance.

Beth goes to a bar one night with her sister to blow off steam and have a night away from her boys. When she meets a sexy cowboy, she thinks she could be bold. But when things go beyond what she thought would be brazen, she's disappointed.
Moved into a new town, she wants to start fresh and put the past behind her. Who knew the man who rented the house to her would be the father of said sexy cowboy.
Daniel is a man of integrity, hard work, and loyalty. He works with his family and has ambitions. He's also got eyes for Beth and doesn't care if he has to move slow to get it.
A very slow burn and sexy story with heartfelt meanings and incredibly sweet moments. I'm looking forward to checking out more of the Six Pack Ranch books. This was lovely.
