A Cowboy to Call Her Own by Cari Lynn Webb (The Bluegrass Blackwells Book 1)

I am always excited when I read a new Blackwell book!  This is the beginning of a new series and I have been so happy to be able to read it!  The "stars" of the story were Asher Blackwell and Kelley Munroe.  Both had moved away to New York and they meet again in Kentucky where they were from.  And yes there is a connection! Kelley recently divorced and was such a good help for Asher' who is helping with the racing stables.  But neither of them really wants a new relationship.   It is a very enjoyable story of two people that seem to help each other but will Asher return to New York? It was a sweet story and I always love Harlequin's Heartwarming genre. 

I recommend this book to reader's of contemporary books.  I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A Cowgirl Finds Home (The Blackwell Belles Book 2) By Carol Ross

Book 2 of The Blackwell Belles Series was a great addition and a very fine read.  It will get your reading attention from the start and will keep you reading till the end. The Belles were once a trick riding group with interesting names as well. They fell apart after a bad accident caused them to stop their riding group. The book had a bit of humor and I have found that to be a feature I really enjoy in my reading material. Although this is book 2, it can easily be a standalone in my opinion.  This is not a love at first site type of book, but only time can tell, right??

This is a sweet contemporary romance.  Kelsea wants to lease Sullivan's land for the purpose of a wind farm.  This was not Will's plan.  The story  has likeable characters and a small town feel with Will is trying to do what he feels is best to serve his late father's ranch to the best of his ability.

A Single Dad in Amish Country: A Clean and Uplifting Romance, (The Butternut Amish B&B Series)

 A Single Dad in Amish Country

by Patricia Johns

This book immediately engaged me because of the occupation of pilot for the character of Hazel.  Which is exactly what a family member is doing right now!  So I totally tuned in right from the beginning.  Then it continued to engage me because of characters wanting to know about the biological parentage.  This is something I have been doing in my career.   And I couldn't help but fall in love with Eeyore.  So that being said, this was a sweet story that I just absolutely loved reading.  It was just what I needed! It was a truly enjoyable book to read.  I am so glad that I was able to read this very nice book!  I really liked the author's style of writing.  Thanks to NetGalley for a complimentary copy of this book.  All thoughts are my own.

Happy to see that this will be a new series!  Because I really enjoyed this book.  I love these sweet romances. I love the different states this author takes me to.  I really enjoyed the matchmaker storyline and the family and friend feelings throughout.

Ronnie starts a matchmaking business and her first client is Wade, widower and cowboy with a ten year old daughter to raise. Although there were some feelings between them, Ronnie is sure that her goal is to set him up with the eligible young ladies  and tries hard to keep a promise to his late wife to help him find someone after her passing.

This is a sweet and tender story along with some humor, as well.  Can't wait for the next in the series.

Her Favorite Wyoming Sheriff by Cari Lynn Webb (The Blackwells of Eagle Springs)

Getting arrested seems to be an issue for Adele Blackwell and this 4th book in the Wyoming Blackwell series is a hit with me.  There are characters from earlier books to become familiar with and although it's a great read on its own, you should read the first three to appreciate all the characters and the parts they play.

Grady and Adele are both in the process of overcoming events from the past and they were not planning on love to be in the near future.  But the romance was an enjoyable read and it was an engaging story.  The twins were cute as was the entire book.  Loved it!

A Cowboy Thanksgiving by Melinda Curtis

What a fun addition to this series.  I loved to get to know these characters as they were so amazing in their own ways.  Bo Monroe feels a bit inadequate as far as "Monroes" go.  But wants to show that he too, can shine.  He assumes "Max" is a male and is surprised to learn at the airport, it is "really" Maxine who he is picking up to have Thanksgiving with the family.

This is a great finish to the series and a beautiful story in and of itself.  As the relationship between Bo and Max begins to grow, you find yourself reading a wonderful and endearing love story.  And lets not forget Luna, Max's daughter, who also is an amazing character and addition to a great book!  You will enjoy it so much.

Wyoming Promise by Anna J. Stewart (The Blackwells of Eagle Springs)

This book is the start of a new series called The Blackwells of Eagle Springs. It was a great start as we meet a Wyoming branch of the Blackwell tribe.

As Corliss and Ryder head out to Montana to request help from Corliss's great uncle "Big E" to save the family ranch, they pose as an engaged couple to win over his heart.  Corliss and Ryder have been the best of friends for more years than they can count.  They have both had rough experiences in the past and this is their story.

I loved the new characters that we meet in this book as well as a couple of past Blackwells that share a spot in this books.  If you have read any of the Blackwell books or even if not, you will totally enjoy this happy, and clean romance.

This is a great read about family ties and love.  I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to what comes next!

Healing the Rancher by Melinda Curtis (The Mountain Monroes Book 11)

Loved this latest addition to the Mountain Monroes.  I have enjoyed this entire series so much!  When Kendall Monroe arrives at the ranch to learn ranching, she definitely has a determination to succeed and the handsome, but scarred rancher she is working with is reluctant to take a chance at love and so they don't quite connect.  The storyline is very entertaining and you will totally love the characters, and their trials of faith.  As they struggle through life's challenges, they each have things to work out in their lives.  

This is a clean romance.  It's enjoyable and a great addition to the Monroe Series.  The characters are relatable and real.  And the cover is adorable, as well.

A Cowgirl's Secret by Melinda Curtis The Mountain Monroes book 9

This is book 9 of 9.  I have enjoyed every single one!  This book was sweet and clean.  Cassie Diaz is the cowgirl and experiences a bad accident at a rodeo as an effort to save the family ranch.  Things don't go well for her as a result of the accident and then she meets Bentley Monroe.  Cassie is drawn to this man and a relationship begins.  

This was definitely one of the best in the series.  Loved it.  It is simply a delightful read and if you love western romance you will definitely want to read this one. I enjoyed the characters very much!  Such a good book!
