No Strings Attached (Last Hope Ranch) (Volume 1)

Sally is despondent. An elementary school teacher and all-around community helper and planner, she's making plans.
Her father left her a small inheritance and she's having renovations done at her house, but also thinking about renovations to herself. All of her friends are getting married and having babies, some are even on the second or third child. Not Sally, so with her biological clock ticking louder every day she looks into in-vitro.
Meanwhile, a casual conversation at the local diner, apparently overheard has men she's know most of her life looking at her creepily, then someone tells her that the fact that she's looking for a baby daddy is all over town. It saddens her, that a lot of men she considered friends are willing to impregnate her, but not date her.

A nice interesting read. I'll have to keep an eye on Ms. McIntyre.

No Strings Attached is an amazing story! Sally Andersen puts her life on hold to care for her Father while all her friends are getting married and having children. Now Sally wants a child but not necessarily a husband. In the small town of, End of the Line, this is scandalous for a school teacher. Clay Saunders has just returned from serving his country overseas. He is suffering from survivor guilt, PTSD, losing his leg and fiancée. Coming to End of the Line he is hoping to heal. Instead he finds a beautiful feisty Sally wanting a baby. She proposes to Clay a contract: we have a baby with no strings attached. Amanda McIntyre is a favorite Author of mine and I love to read every book she writes. I would highly recommend, No Strings Attached, it is just that good!

An amazing love story between two people who least expected it. Sally who has given up on finding Mr Right and starting a family decides to start a family on her own. All she needs is a donor.
Clay an army veteran. Who is struggling with PTSD. After a tour he came home a changed man minus a leg. Never thought he would find someone that would love him after the loss of his leg.
Definitely recommend this book!! Good old fashioned love story.

I loved the story and love the characters from the Kennison Legacy series and that wonderful town called "End of the Line" in Montana. Good looking cowboys with hearts of gold and lots of passion, so whats not to love. I hope the this new series has a story about Hank and Julie along with updates about Clay and Sally and others. I would like to see Liberty and Rein have their baby and others. Also I think a story about Tyler and Kaylee.

I have read all of Amanda's Kinnison Legacy series, and loved them and knew this new book of hers I would also love! This was such a great story about falling in love when you least expect it, on bother ends. I will be buying and reading everything this amazing author writes and publishes. Thank you Amanda McIntyre for another awesome book!

Sally wants a baby. Not that unusual,  but extremely difficult when there's no man in your life. Clay is putting his life together after coming home from war. An unexpected request could lead to the love of a lifetime.

A romance that warms the heart.  Great characterization,  sweet, heartwarming romance,  and some spice makes this a very enjoyable book.

I was so happy to read this book that brought us back to Montana. I loved it. Seeing our main couple fall in love while continuing with the others we met in previous books. Its OK if you haven't read them yet as this author helps you figure out how everyone knows one another but it adds DSO much more if you had. Loved this and I'm looking forward to more about the Last Hope Ranch.

No Strings Attached managed to bring the emotion and sex appeal. Clay has returned home a changed man. He now has to come to terms with physical limitations and emotional issues heaped upon him by his experiences. Sally finally has the chance to be free of responsibility and live for herself. The loneliness she feels is magnified by the love and happiness that surrounds her. I received a copy of No Strings Attached in exchange for an honest review. Amanda McIntyre's story is one of bravery, determination and learning to let go of the things in life that cannot be changed.

This was a sweet story. I loved reading them come together and loved seeing how everyone else is in their business as they try to come together. It was a very good story and I am glad I got to review it.

I loved this story. I can’t wait to read the rest in the series. At first there are a few characters that are introduced and it was a little hard to follow, but once I kept on reading it was easier to see who was who and belonged to whom. I loved that Sally was affected by Clay and who he became after the Army. This is a story about a woman and a man that didn’t think they needed love to make things work. But little did they know that you can’t have a relationship without some strings. A great story to curl up with on a rainy cold day.

I didn't like it. The scene that ruined it happened after they first make out and the heroine asked the hero about the beautiful lady at the auction betting against her. Tells her they dated. She then asked if he has feelings for her and he stays quiet. Even makes comment how he has same feelings for her that he has for the heroine. What made it so much worst for me and made me hate the book was that the hero was her patient and gave him clear for discharge orders before they stated dating. Yuk. I don't care if the hero was no longer her patient that is wrong and illegal on several states. It lost me there. There was no closure after that. This lady is never mentioned again and after a two week abscense with his family he comes back to tell heroine he loves her. Whatever. It didn't buy it. What about those feelings for that other lady. It was never mentioned again. Left bad taste in my mouth. I don't think the guy even knows what love is. I would have had him file compliant against that lady and get himself some real help.

I really liked this book. This is a spin off of the Kinnison Legacy series. Clay Saunders, ex military injured vet, comes to End of the Line to find some peace and further recover from his war wounds. There he meets Sally, a local mucic teacher, who yearns for a family of her own after years of caring for her father. Clay accidentally discovers that Sally is considering having a baby minus the man, but is having second thoughts because of the astronomical costs. Clay, sort of, volunteers to help her out but their best laid plans go awry when they fall in love. Added to the mix is Clay's sister Julie, her 2 sons and an abusive husband. Something for everybody!

This is the first book I've read by this author and it won't be the last. I loved Sally and Clay's story with all its twist twist and turns. It was an interesting and enjoyable story, which I read in one sitting. It was well developed as was the characters. I liked the characters of both Sally and Clay. Their story was different from any others I've read. I highly recommend this book!
