THE BAD BOY OF REDEMPTION RANCH by Maisey Yates - Book Review

This rebel cowboy is looking for a fresh start—will he find more than he’s ever hoped for in Gold Valley?
Police officer Pansy Daniels is the poster girl for responsible behavior. Orphaned as a child, she has dedicated her life to safeguarding her local community. The last thing she needs is a hot-headed cowboy with attitude cruising into town. He may be her new landlord, but that’s no excuse for provoking her…or sending her heart into overdrive.
West Caldwell has come to Redemption Ranch to put his past behind him. Flirting with a pint-size police officer who thinks he’s bad news is definitely not part of the plan, but it’s deliciously easy to get under Pansy’s skin. Then West discovers the vulnerability Pansy keeps so well hidden, and suddenly this renegade cowboy is in over his head. In her arms, West feels like the man he always wanted to be—but can he become the man Pansy deserves?

A beautiful heartfelt tale of family, finding yourself, finding love when and where you least expect it and finding redemption, hope, and new beginnings... I loved every moment of West Caldwell and Pansy Daniels' story, I think this is one of my favorites in one of my favorite series, so what do I give to it - six spoons?! I feel like I am still on cloud nine after the amazingly swoon-worthy ending in this book!
The meet-cute for West and Pansy was a perfect start for their fervent tale. The banter that follows, the daring actions that they take, the passion that burns scorching hot between them, as they get to know each other was charming and sort of enchanting, I could not get enough of these two. 
They are by no means perfect, either of them, yet they complete each other like few people rarely do, and with each other's support and some inner struggles, they bloom to show their true selves. 
Both West and Pansy have a broken past, their stories are different yet they get each other,. They understand the road each of them had to take to come to this point in their lives. They both have to learn to accept themselves and their role in their families, in their relationships, even in their community, to be able to take on the new chances and brighter future at their grasp. 
The story is filled with life lessons and one-liners that I wanted to underline and ponder about later on. I adored the tangible passion between Pansy and West, and the deeper emotions taking root. The relationships with their family members were complex and complicated, which turned into life lessons and moments of growth. 
As part of an ongoing series, you can always get a deeper grasp of the story if you have read the previous books, yet this tale could stand alone as well. 
Loved every emotional, passionate, banter-filled moment of Pansy and Wess' love story
