Cowboy on the Run . . .Once upon a time Luke Tanner had it all. Well, almost all. Then a Hollywood stunt gone wrong stole his best friend — and Luke knows it was all his fault. He could have stopped it, should have stopped it.Jillian Crane doesn’t agree. When she tracks her late fiancé’s best friend to his Colorado mountain hideaway, she is determined to make Luke start living again. She doesn’t … again. She doesn’t know she’s the last person on earth Luke wants to see. And she certainly doesn’t anticipate the feelings she develops for Luke … nor realize how deep Luke’s are for her.
But can they get over the past they share? And even if Jill can forgive him, can Luke ever forgive himself?

This was an interesting story. Looking forward to reading more of Anne’s books!
Guilt and stubbornness play an every day role in Luke’s life as he works himself to death on his ranch. Hard work keeps him from thinking about the past or the future and hopes that he’ll be so tired he won’t dream about them as well. In walks Jillian, very much a part of what he’s trying to forget. The relationship is a struggle to say the least.
What a great book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. The book went fairly quickly as the plot flowed nicely. Luke is a stuntman for his friend, Keith. Unfortunately Keith insists on doing a stunt on his own and dies. Luke basically retreats from life by going back to Colorado and buying a ranch. Jillian, Keith’s fiancee, is writing a book about Keith. She searches all over for Luke to get his help as she wants to interview him for the book. Luke, had feelings for Jillian while his friend was alive and doesn’t want to see Jillian. This is the story of the events after their meeting and the series of adventures leading to their HEA. How does Jillian get Luke over his guilt?
This story is amazing. Yeah, Luke is racked with guilt and doesn’t feel he deserves to be happy since his friend can’t be. I just loved reading this story. It is written from Luke’s POV only which is almost unheard of. I couldn’t put it down. I read this in one sitting.
I highly recommend.
Enjoyable story.
Great book but sometimes got very frustrated with Luke! Understand his guilt and grief but just wanted to shake some sense into him!!!
Always enjoy cowboy books.
Love the series.
this book caused me many late nights I couldn’t put it down
I didn’t enjoy this book and stopped reading it at 26%. Too much about his past and they haven’t gotten to what is past is yet.
Couldn’t finish this book. I got about half way thru and just gave up. He felt responsible for his actor friends death bc he was his stunt man. He also had a thing for the actors girl. After his death she comes back bc she is writing a book.
Took me a while to read…I got so upset with Luke that I had to take breaks…
Who doesn’t love a cowboy story. It was fun to read
Enjoyable,romantic, and you want the story to continue.
I loved the character interaction and the scenery they were portrayed in.
Enjoyed the book and would recommend.
A quick read and a good cowboy series to read. This story is about Luke and Jillian coming together after the death of Keith years ago. Luke dropped out and lived in a cabin on his property alone but tended to the cattle until Jillian finally found where he was. A well written perfectly paced story pulling you in from the start.
I enjoyed this author’s writing style.
Felt like the book got off to a slow start but once you’re into the read it improves Page by Page. Good plot and some interesting twists and turns. Lots of interesting characters that I’m sure we’ll see future books!
These characters went through so much and carried around so much pain and guilt. It was quite the journey for them to get together but i was right there with them on their journey.

Luke ended up being a stunt double for Keith Mallory when they were making a movie in the ranching worked. Then he met Jill, Keith’s girlfriend . Keith died and he blames himself. He went back to CO. And Jill is there asking forgiveness and is writing a book about him. But can they both forgive.
