Renegade Cowboy by Sara Richardson

Author: Sara Richardson
Release Date: December 19, 2017
Rating: 3 Stars⭐⭐⭐

Renegade Cowboy is the third installment in the Rocky Mountain Riders Series and it focuses on the younger brother Levi and Cassidy. Levi is a bull rider who comes home to help Lucas and Lance take care of their dad. Cassidy, on the other hand, is an EMT who takes care of her alcoholic and depressed mother. If you have read book one or two, then you know Cassidy and Levi have a long history and you also know that Levi was a wild child who started that fire that Lucas took the rap for and went to prison. Simply put, Levi was Cassidy's brother best friend before his tragic death. His death has left a mark on Levi and Cassidy. Cassidy has applied to a nursing program in Denver and she is trying to prepare her mom to live on her own. This is basically what this book is about.

Cassidy is an independent, hard-working woman who has a heart of gold. I love her relationship with her mother and it makes this story realistic. Depression and alcoholism is very real and I appreciate how the author handled this wide spread issue. In the other two books, Cassidy avoids Levi like the black plague and throughout this book she does the same. Levi is a bull rider who loves what he does, but he begins to have second thoughts when he and Cassidy reconnects. Levi was a well-developed character, mainly because of the other installments. I absolutely loved his growth from wild rider to a man who has found love.

To sum up this review, this book was okay and the chemistry between Cassidy and Levi was there, but it wasn't strong enough to carry the story. This did not make me feel things like the other two stories did. On the other hand, I will say that this story has a lot of realism and heart with a small dose of heat to make this a solid read, but this story was not exciting to me. Three stars is all I have to give to this book.

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...
