This is Carly and Luke’s story and it doesn’t disappoint. Fast paced, with lots of action and a plot that leaves the door open for another off shoot series. I love Twin Moon Ranch and Blue Moon Saloon and hope the author takes us there again to catch up with these great characters.
I received this as an ARC and am voluntarily closing to review it.
Well HAWT Dame. Ms. Lowe hasn’t lost her touch. We are at book six in The Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch and it’s just as phenomenal and breathtaking as all the others.
We have Carly the youngest of the Hawthorne’s and Luke a bad boy who is ready to turn over a new leaf.
These two complemented each other perfectly. Carly is the wild child and only does one night stands, no attachments. She has some deep issues that as a women, child, and mother I can understand. Some of use, like Carly, don’t want to end up like our mothers. Luke has a horrific past that will bring tears to your eyes when it comes out. He didn’t have an easy life and became a wonder, a drifter, and a bad boy rogue bicker. Their budding romance isn’t easy and each of them have demons they must over come, but when they do come together we are treated to well written and sensual scenes. It’s lovely that they find what they need in each other, peach and tranquility.
We are also treated to some tender moments, moments that define the characters, and heart stoping moments. As always the emotional struggles the characters go through feel so real and the action fight scenes are outstanding.
Desert Roots well leave you breathless and satisfied.
Rated: 4.5 Stars

Not my favourite in this series but still an enjoyable read.
Carly has been a major factor in this series as the half-sister that floats in and out of Twin Moon ranch. This is her story but sorry, I did not like Carly for the majority of this story.
Carly disappointed me, I was not impressed with Carly and her selfish, self-centred attitude. She cannot see she is on a self-destructive path to prove she is not like her mother or father. But she really is like her father, hurting people by not giving them the real her and she keeps putting herself in danger for the next big thrill.
I was really annoyed at Carly’s behaviour towards Luke too. Even when she realises what she saw with Audrey was not true she didn’t go after Luke to apologise, she went off to sulk and moan and get into more trouble.
Luke was a real sweetheart with one hell of a diabolical past and hurts that no one should have to live with.
Yes, he may have done bad things but I think that was more to swipe out and get back at a life that had been lost when it was taken away by Greer.
Luke deserved so much more than a spoilt brat for a mate and luckily Carly redeemed herself and came through when it really mattered.
Going off to Colorado is the best thing for all concerned and both Carly and Luke now have a direction and I can see their life being a good one.
And why the hell has someone not killed that bi*ch Audrey. She is allowed to run amok causing havoc with all the males, even the mated ones. Someone needs to take her out when she gets back from wherever she is hiding. And she will be back, just like the bad penny she is.
