This book did one of
the things that I do not like….having "cowboy" in the title without
the hero "actually" being a cowboy. It annoys me to no end and it
makes me pout because I love cowboy romances. They are the best and when I pick
up a romance book that has cowboy in the title, I automatically get under my
blankets because I need alone time. This made me throw my blankets on the floor
and to proceed with putting my kindle away for the night. How
disappointing.! -_-
Okay…I know that I
have not posted a review in a while and I just wanted to let you know that I
was going through a dry spell. First off
reading is a major part of my life, but these past 2 months have been blah!! Enough about my life, let's get the review of
Big Bad
Cowboy.
First off, this is a
masquerade, secret identity type of story with hot sex in a shed involving little red riding hood and
the big bad wolf. I know right.! The funny thing is, I am NOT kidding and this
is how it starts off. Under the forceful advice of her friend, Maggie decides
to wear a sexy little red riding hood costume to a potential client's Halloween
party. It's there that she meets the big
bad wolf who is really Travis, who
recently came from the military to take care of his family's ranch and nephew. Without knowing each other's real identity,
the have hot, fairytale sex in an old shed. How hot.!! The real dilemma in the
story comes when Maggie and Travis has to share a contract involving
landscaping and the hilarious thing is, Travis recognizes Maggie, but Maggie
does not recognize him. There is a lot of sexting going on and Travis being a
wimp because he is scared to say, "hey Maggie, I am the big bad wolf, can
we have round 2?". The big shoe
that is waiting to drop comes in the form of Maggie finding out that Travis is
really the wolf. When will she realize it.? When?
This book was kind
of hard for me to rate because it started off hot, interesting and a little
rivalry to carry the story, but as it went along it started to lose its spark.
Travis and Maggie had chemistry and the author did a good job with writing
lovely scenes. At the beginning of the
story, Maggie is madly in love with her best friend JD and when a big secret is
revealed about him, she brushes it off.
Hello, she was just in love with him about a week ago and now she's just
like meh, whatever. I found that
confusing and annoying. I liked Travis
because he had a big heart and he had the world on his shoulders along with
taking care of his adorable nephew. I
did not connect with the characters the way that I wanted to and that was
depressing.
In addition, the
only "cowboy" thing about Travis is the fact that he is trying to
save his family's ranch. His character
does not give off that "cowboy" vibe.
All in all, I had to
give it three stars because this book just did not carry the great energy
throughout the whole story. No tea or blankets, just my book. Sigh!
Rating 3 Stars ⭐⭐⭐
