All Night Long with a Cowboy Caitlin Crews

 


 Description:
USA Today bestseller Caitlin Crews returns with All Night Long with a Cowboy," another emotional romance in her stunning cowboy series Kittredge Ranch.

If you play with fire…


One of the most notorious cowboys in Cold River, Jensen Kittredge always has willing women with sweet smiles vying for a place in his bed. So when the prissy high school librarian sidles up to him in the most disreputable bar in town with a scowl on her face, he has no idea what to make of it. Much less the attraction he feels toward the bespectacled creature who wants something from him… but not that. Yet.

Someone gets burned…


Harriett Barnett doesn’t care for dens of iniquity— or the insolent cowboy she certainly shouldn’t find attractive. But one of her students needs her help, and if she needs to corral the infamous Jensen to save him, she will. Trouble is, the town’s favorite Kittredge brother is a lot more than she bargained for. Harriett's happy little life is orderly and neat, just how she likes it—until Jensen blows it all apart with his particular brand of addictive passion. Can a modern-day schoolmarm really tame the wildest cowboy in town? Or is Harriet headed for a terrible fall?

My Review:

I had a really hard time with this book overall. I could not seem to get into it. There was a lot of “thoughts” but not a lot of interaction between the characters. In chapter 12ish there was some more interactions from them however that does tapers back down again a few chapters later. It just seem like something was missing. The only character I really liked was Aidan he just wanted so wanted something better for his life and wanted no needed someone to believe in him to make it happen. There is adult situation through out the story so it may not be suitable for all. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Cold Case Investigators

Book 1: Cold Case Takedown
Book 2: Cold Case Double Cross
Book 3: Yuletide Cold Case Cover-Up


My Review:
This book hit a little close to home for me. The author truly has a way of making you feel like you are right there in the middle of the action as it plays out. I could not put this book down. It literally will keep you guessing till the end. I really Liked Cash he would stop at nothing to get to the bottom or why his brother sat in Jail for a murder he knew he did not commit. I loved Mae she was a fighter while she had her own issues with Cash she was not going to let the stand in the way fo finding the truth out. This book does hit some tough subjects but overall this book is a clean read and well worth it. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Montana Cowboy's Heart Kaylie Newell

 


 Description:
Porter Cole excels at two things—running his Marietta-based dude ranch with his twin brother, Brooks, and charming women. But when the beautiful and stoic Justine Banks arrives at the ranch with a bus full of children for a field trip, everything he thought he knew about himself flies out the window.


Justine has no time for romance, especially not with a sexy cowboy who has the greenest eyes she’s ever seen. But Porter has a way of making her feel alive, especially after taking in her friend’s struggling eleven-year-old grandson. When the boy takes off trying to find his long-lost rodeo cowboy father, Porter offers to help and Justine finds herself confronted with her own childhood pain. Can she trust Porter?


All roads seem to lead back to the ranch. In Porter, Justine and young Tom see a man who holds the key to healing their hearts, and for the first time ever, Porter sees a chance for a family. Will they all be brave enough to forgive their own pasts and imagine a future together?

My Review:
This is one of those books that make you wonder if the author struggled to write this story with out some tears, This story is packed for of emotions thats for sure. This book will get you in the heart and leave you wanting more for sure. I could not put this book down. I really loved Cat he has this old soul that just made him wise beyond his years and he just was just a tender sweet kid and I just could not imagine this story without him. I really liked Justine and Porter, while they both faced similar situations they both had to find a way to deal with it in there own way to find a way to get through life and out on the other side. If you haven't read any of the other Cole brother series I would say do you won't want to miss it, and this book will catch you up for sure. Overall I can't recommend this book enough such a fun read and right to the heart, the author kept it clean so its suitable for all and well worth the read. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Meant to Be My Cowboy R.C. Ryan

 


 Description:
A woman on the run must trust her family's sworn enemy in this thrilling tale by one of the best in cowboy romance.

The cowboy she can’t have . . . is the one she can’t resist.
 
Annie Dempsey has two rules for her new life in Devil’s Door, Wyoming: no romance and no drama. Fresh off a bad breakup, she’s already avoiding love. And as long as she steers clear of the Merrick clan—her family’s sworn enemies—avoiding drama won’t be a problem. But when a charming stranger steps in to protect Annie from a sudden threat, both her rules fly out the door. Because Annie’s mystery hero . . . is a Merrick.

Jonah Merrick won’t allow anyone—even a Dempsey—to be harmed on his watch. It doesn’t hurt that sweet, gorgeous Annie makes his heart beat like never before. Against his family’s objections, Jonah insists Annie hide out with him at his ranch while they try to outwit a dangerous pursuer. But as the days turn into weeks, Jonah realizes he’ll stop anyone who tries to harm Annie . . . or the loving future they’re building together.

My Review:

Y'all the Merrick family is back and you know if you have been reading this series what that means, HAM is back. This book really didn't disappoint. I was so happy to get a chance to read it. I realized this book was going to be the last book in the series and I was a little disappointed because if you have been following along Aunt Liz has quickly become one of my favorite characters and I wasn't sure if we would see much of her in this book. However the author throws a twist in this story and it involves Liz. I liked Annie she was a fighter and ready to take to bat anyone who bad mouthed her or her family. I Liked Jonah but I did feel he just really showed his heart through out and did not keep it close to his vest, you knew where you stood with him thats for sure. The author throws some twist and turns in the book and keeps you guessing what's going to happen next. There is some adult situations in this book which might not be suitable for all readers. Overall I am sad to see this family go but this book was so worth the read. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Bronc Rider Takes a Fall Debra Holt

 


 Description:
He’s about to take the toughest ride of his life. Will it end in the hardest fall?

Trey Tremayne, world champion bronc rider, is on track to win another championship title when an injury sidelines him. Healing privately at a friend’s cabin and determined to qualify for the finals, Trey is pleased when a beautiful woman literally falls into his arms at the local general store. Maybe a little flirtation will distract him from his troubles, but Laurie is anything but short-term or casual, and Trey immediately realizes he’s out of his depth.

School teacher and single mom Laurie Wilkes has her feet planted firmly on the ground. She will not be swayed by a handsome, sexy bull rider who has given her son a serious case of hero worship and makes her feel fully alive for the first time in years. He’s temporary and definitely not a man to take seriously—but her feelings aren’t casual.

She isn’t his type, and he's certainly not hers. So why do they feel like a perfect match?

My Review:
I have really enjoyed this series so far, So I was super excited for this book. However I am sad to say this one is so far my least favorite. I really liked TJ he was wise beyond his years and faced so much and just had such a sweet spirit and soul about him throughout the book. I liked Trey he was a cowboy gone rouge looking to making a better name for himself in his personal and professional life and looking to be a better person all around. I loved the banter between the siblings they all have each others back and family is important no matter where they are they will drop everything to be there for each other and that was very much the case in this book as well. I however was not a fan of Laurie in the beginning of the book and for a good portion she was just came off very snobby, and acted like everyone was beneath her and she could do no wrong. I will say as the book goes on its like a light switch happens and her attitude does get better but was not a fan of hers at all for most of the book. Overall the story is cute and if you are following the Tremaynes then you don't want to miss out on this book because you do get to catch up with Lori and the others. I do like that the author did keep this clean read. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Cowboy Says I Do Sinclair Jayne

 

Description:
He needs her to say I do...

When professional rodeo cowboy Beck Ballantyne returns home to Marietta, Montana, nothing goes as planned. His granddad, flanked by his three determined daughters, announces his plan to sell his legacy ranch after the rodeo. Hoping he’ll reconsider, Beck and his two cousins launch the Rodeo Bride Game. Beck initially has the advantage as he has a long-time girlfriend—except she’s just called it quits.

Ashni Singh has loved Beck since high school, but she’s done living out of a suitcase on the rodeo tour. She’s ready to put down roots and build her own career. Learning she’s unexpectedly expecting makes her even more determined to make a new life. So when Beck dutifully proposes, she does what any self-respecting, career-oriented, educated woman at the end of her patience would do. She says no.

The Rodeo Bride Game may have started as a fun challenge, but Beck has never been more serious about winning Ash’s heart and her hand.

My Review:
Have you ever seen a train wreck coming and yet all you can do is sit there and watch it play out and wonder if the wreck will be stopped in time? Ok so that’s how I felt about this book. Beck and his cousin's come up with this cockamamie idea in hopes to “help” their granddad, while the cousins seem more like brothers so you know they are up too no good, it leaves you wondering who's helping who. While I found this childish there antics were also kind of laughable. I liked Ashni she knew what she wanted and would not let anything stop her from getting there even a few detours. While at first I found Beck a bit self centered jerk (I think thats what the author was going for) he kind of worked his way up as we works to win over Ash with his fun and crazy ideas. I really did like this story overall it was light hearted and just makes you shake your head. There is adult content and may not be suitable for all but so fun. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Cowboy Doctor Leah Vale

 


 Description:
She lives for the thrill. He’s tasked with keeping her safe...

A family tragedy launched Drew Neisson, the middle son of a prominent Oregon ranching family, into a career in medicine. He specializes in emergency sports medicine and is proud to be part of a mobile clinic on the rodeo circuit. But when the local rodeo kicks off, he’s tasked with keeping a visiting bucking bronc rider safe or else his clinic will lose a major donor. Playing babysitter is no fun, especially when his temporary client is distractingly beautiful and a daredevil who makes his own heart pound.

Determined to escape the shadow of her childhood illness and overprotective family, Texas heiress Peyton Halliday joins the Buckin’ Babes—a touring reality show where cowgirls ride broncs and dare each other into one thrilling adventure after another. Peyton revels in the challenge and freedom until a too-handsome doctor wants to play killjoy.

Drew wants to keep the fiery cowgirl safe, but Peyton has another idea—can she encourage her new sidekick to explore his wild side?

My Review:

This book was ok, I felt like if you were not reading this series and this book just came up to read it would be difficult to know what was going on and be confusing. I feel. like the author kept what happened to Drew and his family to practically the end of the book. Which once you find out what happened it makes it a lot easier to understand why Drew acted the way he did the whole book. But I was not a fan of Drew he just seemed like a jerk and very controlling. I really Liked Peyton she was a fighter and was faced with a lot but was willing to take risks and enjoy life, with her you don't really find out what she faced fully till later you know it was something rough. Overall her and Sammie were hands down my favorite in this story. This story does contain adult content and may not be suitable for all readers. 
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Hostile Intent Lynette Eason

 


 Description:
Ava Jackson entered the military shortly after high school, but her mother's illness has forced her to request an early discharge. She already lost her father while deployed, and there's no way she's going to let her mother die alone. But after a visit to the nursing facility where her mother lives, Ava is attacked walking back to her car. Fortunately, FBI Special Agent Caden Denning arrives in time to help fight off her attacker.

Caden reveals to Ava that she may hold the key to the murders of three families, and he needs her help before anyone else is harmed. The hits show a pattern, and clearly the killer has an agenda. But if Caden and Ava can't discover what it is, Ava may be next on the hit list.

Bestselling author Lynette Eason concludes her latest suspense-filled series with a bang as secrets are revealed and the guilty are brought to justice.

My Review:
I could not put this book down the author did not disappoint at all that's for sure. Through most of the book it was completely action packed and has you on the edge of your seat. It also feels very much like you are right there. I loved Ava she just went through so much and so many emotions but would let nothing or no one stop her from finding the truth, she was a true fighter. Caden was there to fight for the rights of everyone and get to the bottom of truth and trying to protect Ava without loosing his heart. I really enjoyed reading about the friends of the characters too it felt more like a family then just friends. The author had no problem making you really really dislike the bad guy either but then make you feel bad for him a little too. Overall this book was an amazing read and I can't wait to see what the author does next with this group of friends. 
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
