About this audiobook
Rafe Kincaid controls everything in his life... until he meets Julia. Julia Gilliland has always been interested in the natural world around her. She particularly enjoys studying the fossils and formations in the magnificent cave near her father's house. The cave seems plenty safe-until the day a mysterious intruder steals the rope she uses to climb out. Rafe Kincaid is a man used to being in control-of himself, his brothers, and his family's ranch. The last thing he expects is to find a woman trapped in the cavern on his land-or to be forced to kiss her! Rafe is more intrigued by Julia than any woman he's ever known. But when their developing relationship threatens a reconciliation with his brothers, will Rafe have to choose between his family and this new love that could heal his troubled heart and secure his happiness?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This story had a person on edge as it was read. Very creative!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Not very impressed with this love story and how it unfolded. I thought that Rafe was too bossy and Julia was too wayward. In a way, I guess they fit though. I did enjoy Seth and will be anxious to read more into his story.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I generally don't have a thing for cowboys, but this book was hard to put down. Mary Connealy created some wonderful characters in this novel. The men first come across as strong and a bit tough, but as you read on, you sense their own concerns for themselves and for the ones they love. Their actions show the lengths to which they will go for the women in their lives. It's definitely a book worth reading.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was a fun western romance that keeps you smiling throughout the book, but you will also find danger, mystery, tragedy and loss. It captured my attention right from the beginning with the rescue of Julia from a deep cave she has been stranded in with a man who wanted to do her harm. Rafe Kincaid rescues her and from the beginning she totally disrupts his well ordered life. Rafe is someone who likes to be in control and trust me, Julia is someone who will stretch him to his limit, and find himself enjoying it in the process. Then there is Julia's family members to contend with and Rafe's long lost brothers to deal with and for someone who likes to be in control, Rafe finds himself "Out of Control". You can't help but like Julie, even though she is a little fixated on fossils, and the chemistry between Rafe and Julia is fun to read about. All in all a totally enjoyable story with alot of it taking place underground in caves, which makes it different and interesting. I am looking forward to the next book in this series by an author who makes reading fun. As a side note, loved the cover of the book; good job.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5So, I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Mary Connealy's work. She's my all time FAVORITE Historical Christian Fiction Western author. She writes about God's love, adds quirky, fun loving characters and puts it all together with a plot line that takes the readers on an adventurous ride. Out of Control is her first book in her newest series, The Kinkaid Brides. And, it was definitely a home run with this reader!!! Rafe Kinkaid is all about being in control. He used to boss his little brothers around when they were younger, even when there was a tragic, almost life threatening accident 13 years before this story takes place. It cost him people he loved. Two died, two moved away. So, he's frozen solid inside. All he can do is stay in control and be boss of the Kinkaid Ranch. So, what's he to do when he meets the spitfire, bossy, and beautiful Julia Gilliand? Rescuing her from someone in the cavern that nearly took his brother's life, well, he can control that. Right? So, why does he end up kissing her to shut her up? And, why does she keep telling him that she lives near the cave, when the Kinkaid Ranch is the only house within miles of Rawhide???? I LOVED reading this story! Watching bossy Julia's independence thaw through Rafe's icy insides was super fun! Not to mention getting introduced to Ethan and Seth Kinkaid, Rafe's brothers, and Audra, Julia's very young and pregnant stepmother, and sweet little Maggie, Julia's baby sister! ALL of them were heart capturing and added special pieces to this God centered story. With a touch of mystery (trying to find out WHO wanted to trap Julia in the caverns!), this is one laugh out loud, un-put-downable, inspiring story that everyone should read! You'll be instantly transported to Colorado, you'll settle in and feel right at home among these new friends! This is most definitely a 5 Book worthy novel and I can't wait for In Too Deep, Ethan's story, to release!
