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 too deep into the story,
but Mark and Katelyn's romance is intense and Katelyn is trying to find a way
to break down Mark's walls. I will have
to say that Mark was one of the most complicated cowboys that I have read in a
while and I loved every second.
First,
allow me to tell you the things that I liked about the story. The story was intense and entertaining as
hell. It was sex on a page and I felt
very naughty reading it at work during my break with someone else present in
the room. This story had a little humor
and I wasn't expecting that tidbit. I
loved the family dynamic with Mama Lou and the rest of the gang. I also enjoyed witnessing Katelyn peeling
back the layers of Mark. The bigger they
are, the harder they fall and boy did Mark fall flat on his face.
Even
though I just gushed about this book and Mark, there were a couple of things
that I did not like about this book. First, Katelyn and her obsession with
"beige" and the other rainbow colors.
I felt like she used this as an excuse to be a walking mat for Mark. I
am not saying that he walked all over her, but she ran after him like a puppy.
Second, Katelyn's friend was annoying to me. I don't really know why, but she
just did. The other thing is the overabundance of sex. While I do love naughty things, I also like
romance and the build up to it. Now
don't get me wrong, I love steam in my stories and this one in particular was
great, but I did want a little bit more romance to go with steam.
Overall
the story was hot, entertaining and most importantly, full of broody
cowboys. This book checked almost
everything on my list and I hope it does the same for you. The pacing was good and this book was
well-written. I recommend this read
with your tea and be prepared for some
serious heat and I don't mean your tea.
