Tired if dealing with an unfaithful husband after seven
years  of marriage, Raine Edmunds finally gets a divorce. Wanting to start over, she  leaves her successful modeling career behind and goes to a ranch near Roswell,  New Mexico to stay with her best friend. The ranch is the perfect place for her  to take stock of her life and all she's accomplished. 

Then Raine meets  Hayden, her friend's brother-in-law, and the opposite of all the other men she  has ever known. As their friendship blossoms, so does her love of ranch life.  She discovers that what she wants most-what her heart
truly desires-is right in  front of her.

Everything about Raine and Hayden's love is against the odds. Now they must prove to each other and to themselves that no matter what  trials assail them, their love will be strong
enough to overcome any  obstacle.

2 Flames – Hissing Warm
3.5 Stars – Good



Against the Odds is a sweet interracial romance about a former model and a cowboy. 

I liked the character of Raine, the premises of the book, and the way it was written, like reading a letter or personal memoir. However taking the story as a whole there were some slow moments and a lack of intensity. Due to that and some editing and formatting errors, as a reader I never felt completely gripped by the story. Something was missing. I’m not saying it was a horrible book, or a bad one, it just needed a bit more oomph and polish.

While the story starts out with the heroine tossing divorce papers on her husband’s desk,
Against
the Odds
does take a turn and lean toward the sweeter side of romance with a nice ending.
