Meet the Blackthorne men, each one as hot, fast, and smooth as the whiskey that built the family fortune, and the yachts and race cars that bear their name. From proud Scottish stock, Blackthornes never lose. But, one by one, the seven sexy men in this family are about to risk everything when they fall for strong and beautiful women who test their mettle in life…and love.

ROSS

Ross Blackthorne likes his cars fast and his women faster. As the third son, he’s accustomed to living his life without the pressure to succeed that his older brothers face. But when he crashes his race car during a public event, his father decides enough is enough. It’s time for Ross to step up and join the family business.

Holly Brooks has her hands full running operations at the Blackthorne Distillery in Lexington, Kentucky. The last thing she needs is to babysit an unrepentant playboy who doesn’t have any interest in learning what it takes to make world-class bourbon.
Ross only intends to stay for as long as it takes to convince his father he’s better suited to driving fast—but working in close proximity to Holly is more interesting than he expected.

Can daredevil Ross convince good girl Holly that he’s worth the risk? Or is their budding relationship doomed to crash and burn?

Ross by Lynn Raye Harris is the third story in the 7 Brides for 7 Blackthorne Series. It is a wonderful series, filled with family, great characters and amazing locations. Ross is the story of daredevil and race car driver Ross Blackthorne and Holly Brooks. Ross's last race ends for him with a fiery crash because of a blown engine. His father, Graham, informs Ross that he needs to take a break from racing and learn more about the family whisky business at their distillery in Lexington, Kentucky. Holly Brooks is in charge of the operations at the Blackthorne Distillery. She is not looking forward to having to spend time training Ross, especially since everything she has read about him leads her to believe that Ross is a womanizer. Holly's family had to sell their bourbon distillery to the Blackthornes after a lightning strike caused a fire that destroyed everything and Holly's dreams to one day be the master distiller at the Brooks Distillery. Ross arrives and sparks fly between him and Holly. Both Ross and Holly know that this is only a temporary job for him. Once Graham clears Ross for racing they both know that he will return to the job he loves, racing cars. As Holly spends time with Ross, she realizes that he is not the guy she originally thought that he was. Holly shares the heartbreak with Ross about all the devastation that happened to the Brooks family as a result of the fire. Her father suffers a fatal heart attack shortly after the fire, her brother leaves Lexington, the distillery and moves to Connecticut, but the most devastating is Holly's sister, Emily suffered brain damage from a fall the night of the fire. Holly feels that it is her responsibility to take care of her sister. Ross shares with Holly, his dreams of what he wants to do after his auto racing career is over. He has not shared that with anyone. I love how Ross and Holly brought out the best in each other. It was a wonderful long story and I could not put it down. I love that Holly is a strong woman who stood up for herself. I am looking forward to reading Phillip's story. Love catching up with all the Blackthornes in each book.

Ross Blackthorne is a race car driver but also a Blackthorne. After a crash, his father insists that he stop racing and start learning the family Whiskey business. In this latest addition to the Seven BRides for Seven Blackthorne series, Lynn Raye Harris does a great job in this 3rd addition to the Seven BRides for Seven Blackthornes,
Ross is forced to go work at the Whiskey/ Bourbon distillery outside of Lexington. While there he meets Holly (whose family originally owned the distillery until a fire force them to sell to the Blackthorns). Ross doesn't want to be there and Holly doesn't want him there but as they come to know each other you can feel the attraction grow.
The characters are great and interesting and you can't help but pull for them to find a way to be together and get their Happily Ever After.

"She hadn't wanted to like this man. Not at all. But she did. And it was vital she didn't let him know it."

What a great story!! The hot-shot, speed-addicted, womanizing racer, and the straight laced, take no BS, girl next door, on a collision course to love!!

Ross likes adventure, women, and race cars. After an impressive and fiery crash, his father thinks Ross has had his fun and needs to hang up his helmet and take his place in the family business. Ross will humor him but has every intention of getting back behind the wheel of his race car. But Holly Brooks might be the one to throw the checkered flag on all of his plans. She's everything he never expected, and that might not be such a bad thing.

Holly has been tasked with showing pretty-boy Ross Blackthorne the ropes of his family's bourbon business. He's not taking it seriously and that infuriates her! He's all good looks, smarmy grins, and rides the coattails of his own charm. But, he's showing her another side of himself - one that throws the caution flag on all of her preconceptions. Sure, he's kind of her boss being a Blackthorne, but he's working his way in to her heart. That can't be good. Right?

This was such a cute story. I loved Ross and Holly. So different, but so perfect for one another!! A great addition to the 7 Brides for 7 Blackthornes series!

Lynne Raye Harris has created a dynamic, fast paced yet measured story for Ross Blackthorne and Holly Brooks. Both their families make whiskey, Holly has loved distilling her families Kentucky whiskey, Ross has run from his, preferring driving the fast cars of NASCAR. When Ross is forced from the track to the family distillery he feels adrift. When he learns Holly will be his mentor, things start to change for him. Holly doesn't like Ross, or at least doesn't appreciate his playboy image, but he's determined to show her he's really a good guy. It becomes apparent they have more in common than they first thought. Their passion, determination and goals are ingrained in their psyches but they begin to help each other understand and realize their true dreams. The connection they make through honest dialogue helps them transition from living in the past with old dreams, and nightmares, to where they truly want to be. The excellent descriptive writing of Ms. Harris provides clear, loving explanations of not only the whiskey and NASCAR worlds but of the charismatic characters of Ross and Holly and the family and friends who make their world special. Beautiful conclusion to their story.

Third Blackthorne brother's story. Ross races cars for the family team. Holly manages the distillery her family had started but now owned by the Blackthornes. When Ross is sent to the distillery after a racing accident, Holly fears he may take her job. Sparks fly and the two are able to work things out. Good read.

Another amazing read for an amazing series. So full of characters. Love this friendship. Holly is a strong woman. Ross is, of course, a hot alpha man. They sizzle together. Can't wait for the next installment of Blackthorne Family.

Ross is book #3 in the 7 Brides fo 7 Blackthornes series. Each book in the series is written by a different author and can be read as standalone. I think ,you'd enjoy all the books, so give the series a try.

When you meet Ross you might have the same prejudices as Holly, but I'm sure in the end you will fall in love with both, hero and heroine. What a beautiful light romance - packed with humor and great characters - I've finished the book in 24 hours!

Even though the story is not as suspenseful as the ones we know from HOT or HOT seals (which - by the way - I highly recomment to add to you TBR-list), I loved Lynn's writing!

Die Geschichte ist nicht vollgepackt mit Action, wie wir es sonst von Lynn Raye Harris kennen, aber dennoch eine tolle Abwechslung! Ihre Bücher enttäuschen einfach nie!
