A couple days ago, I was picking up my ereader in the evening and my husband said “what was that book you’re reading? Something to do with cowboys? The title made me laugh.”
I told him, and he did laugh and say “that’s awesome.”
Now, my husband doesn’t read romance, but he is a nerd who understands nerd business. To him, “I’m reading a romance and this one has cowboys in it” is equivalent to “I’m reading an epic fantasy and this one has a lot of orcs.”
Today, I said “you remember the cowboy book? It’s not as exciting as I hoped. It’s full of nice people being nice to each other and making thoughtful decisions.”
My husband said, “well, that has to be somebody’s kink.”
Conclusion: if nice, low-conflict romance is your catnip, you will probably enjoy this one. If, like me, you find that stuff great in real life (please see the above picture of domestic bliss for reference), but kind of dull on the page, you might want to give it a miss.

I wasn't sure that I wanted to read this book but all three books in the series were available at my local library and Weatherspoon is an amazing author so I grabbed this one too. And I really enjoyed it! Yes, there was an amnesia plot but it was fun to see Evie and Zach get to know each other again after she gets pushed down the stairs by a jealous rival. The ending was a bit abrupt but overall a fun ride.

One of the best amnesia trope romances I've ever read. Loved the atmosphere and the setting. Really enjoyed all the characters. The chemistry between Evie and Zach was great, but the amnesia trope always makes me feel like there is a hint of dishonesty in the way the relationship develops and that always takes me out of it a bit.
I loved that I could absolutely see this as a wonderful romance movie. This is such a sweet romance overall with just enough spice and just a bit over the top drama. The Pleasants are a great family and I can't wait to read the rest of their stories.

After reading A Thorn in the Saddle I absolutely had to go back and get whole story on the Pleasant family from the beginning, so here we are with Zach’s book: A Cowboy to Remember. Actually, I’d like to call this Evie’s book, since she’s really the most likeable one of the pair.
This book features Evie Buchanan, a celebrity chef who finds herself without her memories after an encounter with an old co-worker, and Zach Pleasant, luxury ranch owner and former rodeo star, brother to Jesse Pleasant from book 3. This book is great - hugely plot driven with lots of hilarious banter. Rebekah Weatherspoon writes *the best* friend groups. Her friends never fail to crack me up and they are always so beautifully reliable and honest with her MCs. For a Weatherspoon it’s pretty low heat, but the story is compelling so I still didn’t want to put this down. If you’re into cowboy hats? This one’s for you. 🤠
Zach and Evie have *history* but of course she is unaware of it, so their relationship is a little fraught. Okay, it’s a lot fraught, but I loved how much Jesse and Miss Leona (Zach’s grandmother) and Evie’s friends watched out for her. And I adored being along for the ride as Evie quite literally remembered herself (and figured out things like texting and Instagram DMs).
👍🏻Recommended for fans of cowboys, big family drama, reality TV, cooking shows and awesome friend groups.
