I was fortunate to be gifted 8 Second Decision. One book wasn't enough, so I bought book two, Rules of the Ride and read it straight through. There was no way I could call it quits. My life had come to a standstill. I needed book three, Branding A Legacy. I am so thankful that it was available. I happy danced while it downloaded.
I think I would have cried if I had to wait. Rules of the Ride left us hanging. We didn't know if Marvel was a live. We didn't know if Grandpa would survive. We didn't know if Saint would win. I needed answers. I demanded answers. Branding A Legacy gave me answers, gave me more questions and gave me resolution.
Branding A legacy was full of suspense. Branding legacy kept me on the edge of my seat. Branding A Legacy had romance and hot sex. I have to say, those Slatter boys know how to love. The Slatter boys are the poster child for alpha male. As I reached the end of the book I was still falling off my seat until the epilogue. You must read the epilogue.
Even with all of the thrills and chills, even with all of the suspense, I still needed tissues to wipe the tears and chocolate to ease the sadness.

This book is somehow my favorite in the series, but at the same time my least favorite.
I was really hoping that Marvel's relationship start with Clover would be smoother than his brother relationships had been.. That didn't happen. In true Slatter fashion he made it as rough as possible. Just because he's the baby brother doesn't make him the sweetest brother as I soon found out.
The beginning was a little rough but once they were able to move on they were really sweet. I was hoping everything would come out in the open sooner rather than later so they can quickly move past it. I practically held my breath waiting for the inevitable to happen and it did, but not until the literal end.
I think that's what I found most disappointing. When they were in, they weren't all in. This may have been more true for Marvel than Clover, but Clover kept her own secrets in a way. By doing so their relationship never seemed to be solidified. When everything eventually did come out and regrets were made, we never got to see the out come of it all. One second things are rocky, and the next we are reading the epilogue. I wish that things were resolved further away from the end and where we got to see all the steps to the end.
One thing I did love was the "Where are the Slatters now", it was nice to see how everything turned out in the end for all of them, especially granddad.

Hello emotions.
Okay do not read this book if you are about to start shark week and you are emotional wreck, unless you just really want to cry.
This is the last of the Silver Star Ranch novels and just sends you on an emotional ride that you don't want to get off. I had to do that thing called work but this book was on my mind all day.
Marvel is the baby and the one who is hardened from beat down and beat down. He is tired of the bad guys always winning. So he concocts a plan to get what his family rightly deserves. What he wasn't anticipating is it going sideways. After what feels like a year of running from his fate and angel stepped in to save him and brings him back to life.
Clover was sent to Texas by her cold hearted mom to live with uncle because clover isn't much of a social butterfly. So her mom thought this would be the beat way for to change. Clover just happens to be a nurse and a darn good one at that. When granddad is on the hospital he becomes her favorite patient and with all her stories of Marvel she slowly starts to love him.
On the road to her uncles she sees Marvel and saves him. No matter how much hate a spews her way when he is first in the hospital or how much he tries to push her away she is there. As they navigate this new and fairytaleish relationship with the added scare from the bad guys their love grows to amazing heights.
HJ Bellus not only sends your emotions on a crazy rollercoaster but she adds a special something at the end of her book that brings the whole thing together. I highly recommend this.

I loved this book! HJ Bellus did it again. Branding A Legacy is a wonderful story. I loved Marvel and Clover's story. The pain and torment that they both went through in this story allowed me to fall in love with both the characters and how they chose to deal with the trouble in their lives.. I also loved having a peek at Merek, Maverick, Challis, Ella and Granddad. If you're looking for a great cowboy read don't miss out on this or any of the other Silver Star Ranch books.
