Rode Hard, Put Up Wet is a wonderful read.  The relationships in this book are out of this world.  I could tell how much care Lorelei James put into these four characters from the first chapter.  Not only did I get two great romances I also got to read about a strained father and daughter relationship on the mend and the family dynamics of a large group.  The emotions Ms. James put these four through ranges from happy to sad.  She even had me in happy tears!  Ms. James had me on an emotional rollercoaster, but the hot sex made up for it.
