Loving the Texas Lawman by Charlene Sands

Release Date: May 22, 2017

Rating: 3 Stars⭐⭐⭐

Loving the Texas Lawman is a story about love once lost and found once again. At least that is what Jillian and Jack wants the small town of Hope Wells to believe. A fake marriage is what they both need to get something that they desperately need. Jillian needs Jack's polished and respectable reputation and Jack needs to adopt a little boy named Beau and having Jillian pose as his wife will give the illusion that he is able to care for Beau. Jillian, a lingerie designer, who comes back home to open a new store and to rebuild her business' reputation. Taken back at his first love return, Jack, the town sheriff, is determined to keep her at arms length. Unfortunately, fate has a plan and it involves love, sex, and a second chance at true love.

For the most part I enjoyed the story and the characters, but the pacing in this story is very slow. I was looking for the magic that took place in book one, but this book just did not have that same essence that book one had. Jillian was outgoing, intelligent and she was an entrepreneur. Other than those qualities, Jillian's character had nothing else to offer. Jack was the town sheriff and he had the hot lawman thing going on for him. He is trying to adopt this little boy who he rescued from a flood and I love their relationship. If it wasn't for the slow moving pacing of this story and the lack of an exciting hero, this book would be 5 star for sure.

I loved the ending and I absolutely enjoy a book without a cliff hanger. 👏👏

Riding Hard by Laura Landish

Author: Laura Landish Release Date: March 26, 2019 What is it about quiet, broody cowboys that drives us women wild? Is it the foul mouth or the panty dropping tone? Whatever it may be, it is in this book. I think I lost my religion while reading this book because it was so dirty. Grrrr.!! My inner cheetah, yes cheetah because they are my favorite cat, came out… 😻I mean Wow.!! Okay let’s get to the meat of this cowboy stew shall we. This is book 2 of the Bennett Boys Ranch series and this one is about the quiet, broody older brother, Mark. I was so excited to read his story because he was so mysterious and who doesn't want to see a cowboy fall in love. Hopefully you have read book 1 because I am about to drop a spoiler. Okay…Mark's younger brother James from book 1 is getting married at resort outside of town and this is where Mark meets Katelyn, an event coordinator. Now I will not go t...

Saving Jake by Sharon Sala

Let me start by saying that I had no idea that this was book 3 in a series. The book was so good that I thought it was a stand-alone novel.!! This book tells the story of Jake and Laurel (which makes me think of "Arrow") and tells the story of how they became to accept each other's painful past and learning how to move forward with love. This book is a wonderful example of storytelling and I enjoyed myself while reading this book. The way the author tells this story makes it entertaining in a classy, simple way and I could not have asked for a better story. This story gripped my heart and I was surprised by the chemistry that jumped off of the pages when it came to Jake and Laurel. Laurel's daughter, Bonnie, just makes this book even more sweet than it already is. I really miss when books were written like this and there is no specific point of view and it allows the author to explore different characters. By allowing different charact...
