Hometown Cowboy by Dakota Harrison

 


Hometown Cowboy about broke my heart. The ever present but unspoken love of Darby and Ryan drives a story of a woman sure of her feelings and a man unsettled in his. She is a woman standing firm and he is a mess of past and present emotions. Such a great story.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Trevor looks like he fits the bill. Lots can happen and does to make a relationship and love be too far away to grasp hold of.



The Cowboy's Texas Heart by E. Elizabeth Watson

 



So much happening in The Cowboy’s Texas Heart and all of it is beautifully written. Your heartstrings will play to the music of emotions between Tyler and Heart who have a heat almost too hot to handle. They both have deeply held emotional secrets waiting for the right person to trustfully divulge. I loved the engrossing story of Tyler and Heart and all the complications they encountered.
