The Cowboy by M. O'Keefe

4.0

Reviewed on my blog, Becky on Books, on 11/26/18.

Phew--this is one book that is definitely NSFW--not even on your lunch break! (Fans self, remembering details...)

Bea and Cody hands down have the most unusual--and hot!--meet cute I've read so far. Hats off to you, Ms. O'Keefe! Things somehow manage to get even hotter from there, too--and then Cody brings it all to a screeching halt, darn him. Though I did want Bea to 'fess up to him way sooner than she did, his reaction seemed a bit OTT--still, he finally manages (with some help!) to get his head out of his you-know-what and their HEA is super-sweet.

The Cowboy worked okay as a standalone, though I do wish I'd read the other series books first for a bit more context on why Bea has such a low opinion of herself, since it had definite repercussions here for the choices she made. Fingers crossed that Jack will get a book too, and give us more Cody and Bea together cuteness! (Plus his story. He totally deserves a story!)

Rating: 4 stars / A-

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
