Rodeo cowboy Benjamin Hudson is one of four brothers set to inherit their father's ranch in northern Alberta. The only problem is, the three oldest have been estranged from Zackary Hudson for years. Their father's will states they have to live on the ranch for one year, show a profit, and care for their baby brother. The main problems…none of them know anything about running a working ranch or caring for an infant. They decide to hire domestic help for the primary care of Jeremiah.
Halifax native, Danielle Madison, wants to escape the pain of an abusive marriage and the resultant stillborn child. She sees the ad for a nanny on a ranch in Alberta, applies, and flies west without a second thought. For Dani it's work only, with no intention of becoming involved until she meets Benjamin, the tough-as-nails ex rodeo rider, who handles his baby brother with great gentleness and compassion. Little Jeremiah pulls at her heartstrings, and she's drawn to him, despite her resolve to remain aloof.
Love is not in Ben's vocabulary, except as it applies to his lost siblings. When things start disappearing and going wrong, Dani is Ben's initial suspect. He's attracted to her, despite her withdrawn persona, and tries to believe in her innocence as they work together to solve the mysterious happenings. Will love win out, or will the fear of commitment drive a permanent wedge between them?

5.0 out of 5 stars is heartwarmingly sweet with non-stop suspense
Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2014
BENJAMIN, the second book in the Hudson Ranch series, is heartwarmingly sweet with non-stop suspense.

Once again, Lorraine Nelson, one of today’s best new authors, has created a series that reflects her trademark gifts for writing romantic suspense set against an intriguing backdrop—this time a working horse ranch in the Canadian west—and filled with engrossing dialogue and characters so unforgettable you’ll quickly forget you’re reading fiction.

The titles in this series—one book for each of the triplet brothers—skillfully and memorably champion the theme that families are at their best when they stick together and that families—and love—are forever. And no one has more opportunities to overcome obstacles than these three, who were separated shortly before their teens and sent to different foster homes. A quirk of fate reunites the three with the challenge of a lifetime—move immediately to a faraway place, bring a large spread from the red into the black within a year and, oh yes, raise the two-year-old stepbrother you’ve never heard about until today. Too easy, if you’re one of the Hudson brothers!

The fast-paced plot has the warmth of a Julie Garwood novel, as Nelson deftly shows her similar talent for creating and portraying family members who take whatever gets carried their way with humor, love and a dose of feistiness. The women they fall in love with join the battle to save the ranch from those who would deny the Hudsons their inheritance. Suspects abound, and the ending will leave you cheering to see the bad guys caught—but wishing the series would never end.

An added bonus is the original hand-drawn cover art that graces each title in the series, illustrations done by Sharon Wilson-Dupuis, Nelson’s sister.

Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2016
This book was given to me for an honest review. Book 2 in the Hudson Ranch series picks right up where book 1 left off. Reuniting the triplets and introducing them to their baby brother. They need to stay on the ranch for 1 year, taking care of the ranch itself and Jerry (their 2 year old baby brother). These 3 bachelors know nothing of caring for a toddler so they hire a nanny. Dani is trying to escape her abused past and applies for the job and is hired within minutes. Things are being sabotaged at the ranch but the brothers are determined to stay together and start showing a profit. Dani gets involved not only with the ranch, the baby but also Ben (former rodeo star). Doubts and suspicions arise between the two as things start happening at the ranch and with each other. A great story by Lorraine and I am anxious to get to book 3 in this series GABRIEL.

Benjamin is one of 3 brothers who were lost to their father. After his father and step mother die in a car crash, Ben and his brothers are finally reuniting. Harsh feelings for a father who was dead and a unpleasant past are brought together when they reunite. They find out they have a little brother and are now his only living relatives. The 3 men now have inherited a ranch and a little boy. Making a go of the ranch will keep the 3 men busy. A nanny would have to be found. Dani running from her own past, finds a ad for a nanny and calls. Dani makes the guys lives easier with there little brother but Benjamin may like her for more than just the nanny. Will the guys be able to run the ranch? Or is there someone willing to hurt people to drive them all away?

This is a great short read. Moves fast and I loved the story. Read the novella, The Inheritance first. It really does a great job starting the story. This is a series that is well worth the money and time. I have read many books by this author and her books pull at the heart strings and make you want to fall in love all over again.

Loved this story of family coming together! The Hudson triplets reunite and fight for their inheritance. A nanny is hired for Jerry the youngest sibling and she becomes an integral part of the family. This story had me from the beginning and I loved it to the very end. I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Oh my goodness, I totally fell in love with Ben! This book kept my attention from the beginning until the end. My only complaint is that I want more. I'm hooked on The Hudson Ranch Series and can't wait to read the next book in the series!
