About the book:
From the New York Times bestselling cowboy queen comes "a story that is sure to please fans" about a "slow-simmering romance" and the "simple pleasures of ranch life" (Publishers Weekly). Includes a bonus novella by Katie Lane!
Patience was never one of her virtues. After her SUV runs off the road in the middle of a Texas blizzard and her cell stops working, Claire Mason is about to snap. Getting back home to Oklahoma with her four-year-old niece is top priority. And lucky for her, help comes in the form of a true Texas cowboy...
Levi Jackson has always been a sucker for strays. So he can't help getting involved when he comes across Claire and her little niece shivering in the cold. By offering them a place to stay until her car is fixed, he can make sure the two are taken care of - and get to know the sassy Claire better.
What starts as something awkward and temporary starts feeling cozier by the minute. And soon Levi is hoping he can convince Claire she has a permanent place in his heart.
Plus, bonus story "O Little Town of Bramble" by Katie Lane!
All Ethan Miller wants for Christmas is to celebrate in Bramble, Texas, with family and friends. But when his childhood neighbor comes home for the holiday, Ethan realizes that the girl-next-door could be the girl of his dreams.
My Thoughts:
If anyone can melt your heart, it's Levi with his penchant to rescue stray animals. They say animals are a good judge of character and all of them were drawn to and adored Levi. There's no way Claire could resist this sexy cowboy with a heart of gold. Claire was a sweetheart as well, caring for her lovable and sassy four-year-old niece, Zaylie, while her brother is on active duty. She fit right in at the Longhorn Ranch, stepping up and helping while Retta felt under the weather. Retta and Levi's mom took an immediate shine to her, and they all became fast friends.
One of the many things I enjoy about Carolyn Brown's romances is there's no unnecessary relationship angst or drama. Claire and Levi's romance felt realistic and progressed naturally. They did have to overcome normal relationship obstacles, but it never spoiled the story.
I love Carolyn Brown's brand of cowboy romance! Sexy cowboys, loyal family and friends giving sage advice (whether it's requested or not, lol), cute animals, and an adorable four-year-old made Cowboy Honor a delight!
