BLURB:
Stylish Sinclair Llewelling has little contact with his family, but he loves his cousin Lilly very much, and agrees to help her plan the elegant country wedding of her dreams. There’s just one problem: the foreman of the ranch where the wedding is to take place.
Former rodeo cowboy Dawson West takes his job very seriously, and he doesn’t appreciate anyone who gets in the way. Ranching is in his blood, and the people he works for are like family to him, so when Sinclair and his plans add to his work, he isn’t quiet about making his displeasure known.
Sinclair and Dawson have more in common than they realize, including a strong work ethic, horses, and spines of steel. Their fighting shifts to mutual respect, and heat flares as they see past each other’s walls to the men beneath. Just as Sinclair is getting a taste for ranch life, problems at his late father’s business pull him away from the cowboy who has lassoed him in. They’ll need to team back up to balance jobs, ranch, wedding, and what their hearts want.
REVIEW:
Dawson West is your stereotypical Texas Cowboy, competent and silent with a propensity to be a loner. He’s worked his way up to foreman on the ranch that he’s made his home since he was a kid. As a kid his own home life wasn’t so great. Few of those he calls friends, even know that much about him. But the good person underneath is evidenced by his dog, a toy poodle that he rescued when she was a stray pup.
Sinclair Llewelling inherited his dad’s Texas Oil equipment business when the old man passed. He’s been running it, though he doesn’t really see himself as a businessman. When the “old guard” from his dad’s firm don’t seem to really understand his dad’s secrets to success, he keeps getting drawn into the business.
When these two men, who are both used to getting their own way meet one foresees fireworks on the horizon and yet there is that mutual attraction…
This novella is book two in the series that began in Nowhere to Ride series. While many of the characters from book 1 do make cameo appearances here, this is basically a stand-alone tale. Again, the couple are both decent good guys, and their coming together is interesting to see. Both characters are believable and easy to care about. I’ve always thought of tales by Andrew Grey as comfort reads. This is another of those homespun tales where not too much happens – other than two good guys meeting and realizing that they fit together. And how can anyone object to more of that?
