He doesn’t want to discover. He just wants his peace and quiet, all by his lonesome with his animals on his homestead. When Brigid literally falls at his feet, he keeps telling her she needs to leave, but shocks himself when he keeps finding reasons for her to stay. What will he do when he runs out of excuses?
In the whole wide world they managed to find each other. Would they walk away from their happiness, or would they bring their love home to roost?

Home To Roost is another fantastic read by Reina Torres! I enjoyed reading Brigid’s story and her journey to become a bride. Her journey begins on a train to Jubilee Springs headed to meet her groom as she is a mail order bride. Things don’t work out and Brigid is left to figure out what to do next. While walking in the woods she gets lost and runs into Livingstone Quinn. Will Quinn be the one to give Brigid her HEA? This is a well written story with great well developed characters. It’s a heartwarming sweet romance full of drama, humor and great farm animals. I can’t wait to read the net book by this author she is one of the best out there.
Well written and well described that places you right in the story. You will feel Brigid’s rejection and despair. There’s an undeniable chemistry between the main characters, Brigid and Quinn. Along with the wonderful characters, you meet barn animals with quite the personality. Reina Torres certainly has a gift for writing sweet, western historical romances and soon has you vested in the characters and town. Her book titles also match the story perfectly. Looking forward to reading more from this town.
Another great historical western romance by Reina Torres. I love how she can write such great characters that invoke such strong feelings from me. I totally fell for Quinn and felt like we were kindred spirits. I understood his need for solitude but also loved the way he opened up with Brigid. It was so cute to see how he interacted with her. I also loved Brigid’s spirit and personality. It wasn’t hard to fall in love with her too. Quinn didn’t stand a chance. And there was also a secondary character that we’re supposed to hate, and boy did I really dislike him. But one of my favorite parts of the story were the interactions with the animals. So cute. Overall, a very fun, cute and sweet love story that I would highly recommend.
