From the back cover: 

Saddle up for mysteries and laughs 

with the WILDE sisters! 

Bailey Wilde is the oldest sister — and the one who takes care of everyone else in her family. But after her sisters marry and move away, her little homestead becomes bleak and lonely, expecially during the long winter months. In a moment of weakness, Bailey agrees to a wild plan concocted by her neighbor, Gage Coulter. 

Gage is an honest man, but he didn't make his fortune by being weak. He won't break the law, but he'll push as hard as he can within it. Five thousand acres of excellent grazing land is lost to him because Bailey's homestead is located right across the entrance to a canyon full of lush grass. Gage has to regain access to this land— and he's got to go through Bailey to do it. So he makes a proposal... 

Can these two independent, life-toughened homesteaders finally loosen up enough to earn each other's respect— and maybe find love in the process? 

My take: 

Mary Connealy's book Fire And Ice is the third book in the Wilde At Heart series. I've read all three books and this one is by far my favorite. Both Bailey and Gage are interesting people They had quite a few similarities but also just enough difference to make it interesting. There were some twists and turns that kept the story going in a way that I just seemed to fly through the story. It kept me interested.
