Why do I keep on reading her books?? The blurbs promise so much, but then the books don't deliver. Ughhh I want hot, sexy, and well-written. Is that too much to ask?

I've yet to be disappointed by a Lori Foster book. Her heroes are so HOT, and endearing, and made up of everything a woman looks for in a man. The brothers in her Buckhorn series are all that and more. This book is actually about the son/nephew, but he's no less a hero than the others. Great love story, great sex scenes. The heroine is also written very well. Though she starts out in a previous book seeming like a party girl with no self respect, she grows up into a responsible woman with a good head on her shoulders. I can't recommend the Buckhorn series enough.

After reading the first four stories, I was excited to read Casey's story. But his story came off heavy-handed and sometimes preachy. I was also confused by how everyone called Damon Devaughn "Damon" but most of the time Casey would call him "Devaughn" even though they just met. All in all, I would say it was the little things that bugged me the most about this story's execution.

This wasn't the best Lori Foster that I have read, but I can't say that it was the worst romance novel either. The plot was your standard contemporary-romance, with a fairly likable cast of characters. However, I found it all too perfect and wonderful and 'cookie cutter'. I also wasn't in love with Casey which kind of put a damper on the romantic elements too.
The plot was simple enough, there weren't many major plot points to contend with, especially as after a certain point the pages just revolved around Emma and Casey's sex life. It was quite a short book with two romances and a 'main' plot so there wasn't much time to delve deep or flesh out all of the plots overly well.
The 'twist' in the main plot I saw coming from the get-go, but it added a little something to Emma's development as a character. Emma was generally quite likable and I wish that we had seen more of her growth in Chicago and some of that upheaval. Instead, it was all glossed over b her meeting a wonderful family who took her in, and it seemed that her life was then as smooth and perfect as those in Buckhorn.
I hated Casey as a leading hero. He very rarely thought of Emma in un-sexual terms and I started to get annoyed with reading about how pretty and sexual she was. I wanted to know about how emotionally strong she was, and how impressed he was with her other assets, such as the successful business that she owned.
Casey had a hard time - no pun intended - understanding that when Emma said 'No' she did not mean 'Yes' or 'Later'. It was like, a vampire can't enter your house unless you invite them, but once they've been invited once, they can come and go whenever. Emma had once offered Casey sex eight years ago, and now he was allowed to take it whenever he wanted. He was downright creepy in a few places and I just felt that he was pressuring Emma into a relationship more than romancing her.
I really disliked the fact that every supporting character simpered over either the Uncles or Casey. Women were bitchy, rude and snarky just because they wanted to mark their territory, turning on each other because they wanted a little 'something something'. Eurgh. So much for feminism.
I'm surprised women weren't peeing up the men of the family more frequently. Not a line that I thought I'd ever write in a book review.
In fact all of the supporting characters were just so wonderful and perfect; saving damsels in distress or forgiving and forgetting at a moment's notice. There needed to be more antagonism, more obstacles. I wanted to doubt whether it would be a happy ending.
Generally speaking it was a light afternoon read, but it needed some grit to make it genuinely interesting. Some areas could have been developed better to bring added depth to an otherwise cookie-cutter romance.

The Buckhorn Legacy is the fifth book in the Buckhorn Brothers series by author Lori Foster. The main characters featured are Casey Hudson and Emma Clark.
Casey. Oh sweet and sexy Casey. I have been dying to get to your book in my pile and I finally got to read about you. I loved the previous books in this series, but Casey's book was the one I was dying to read. There was just something about that character that drew me in and kept hold of me up until the last page. Casey is Sawyer's son. He is also the one that had this reader drooling in anticipation. Emma was considered the town tramp even though she was young.
Fast forward eight years and and Emma has returned after running away at a young age. Casey always wondered what happened to her, but he never knew. In The Buckhorn Legacy we find out what happened and read about the chemistry between the two. In this book we also get to see the true depth of Casey's heart and feelings.
This was a wonderful conclusion to a great series. I am sad to see it end, but the best certainly came last. While it is not necessary to read the previous books in the series, I highly recommend that you do to get the full picture of the family dynamics and Casey.

I won an advanced copy of this on Lori Foster's FB page. I had been trying to find an original copy of this for awhile now so I could finish the Buckhorn series. I was thrilled to win it and thrilled to be able to read it. I really liked it. I do prefer her Men on the Edge of Honor series personally, although the lack of suspense in these are far less stressful. :)
