Throwback Thursday - Sawyer (Buckhorn Brothers #1)

Author: Lori Foster
First Published in 2000 by Harlequin

Sawyer Hudson, the only doctor in Buckhorn County, took it upon himself to rescue the beautiful but enigmatic woman who came literally crashing into his life. Though he knew he should keep things platonic and professional, around her his body had other ideas. And his heart was no more cooperative.

Honey Malone was on the run, fleeing a dangerous predator, when she lost control of her car, drove into a lake - and found herself up to her neck in breathtaking men. After the brothers nursed her through her injuries, she tried to leave, but she hadn't bargained on their stubborn protectiveness. Or the passionate bond that tied her to Sawyer.

I seem to be on a Lori Foster kick lately. I think it is her ability to make her characters so likeable that has me wanting to read more of her books. Sawyer is the first in a series that came out in the early 2000s about 4 brothers who live and find love in their small town. They are all gorgeous and single. Sawyer is the oldest brother and a doctor. Honey is running from someone who wants to hurt her. The attraction between the two is believable and very cute. I think what appealed to me most about the book was the interaction between Sawyer and his brothers. They obviously want Sawyer to be happy and will do anything to make it happen. Sawyer also has a son who he has raised on his own. Any man who can do that gets big points in my book. Honey is a strong willed woman who has had to make it on her own. Her reaction to having 5 males want to protect her is pretty amusing.

This is a quick and fun read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have the other 4 books in the series on my bedside table ready to be read. Enjoy!
