Victoria James is a
new author for me but if her work turns out to be like this one, I will
definitely add her to my favorite author lists.
The Trouble with
Cowboys starts out with Tyler Donnelly returning to Wishing River. He regrets
leaving eight years ago but dreads returning; however, his Dad needs him having
had a bad stroke. Still, eight years ago, Tyler left following an argument with
his Dad where things were said not easily taken back.
Stopping by, the
local diner, Tyler finds Lainey has taken over from her grandmother. She has
turned into a fine woman. Lainey, however, isn't happy to see Tyler. She is
angry at him along with his two best friends for leaving his Dad like he did;
but they don't know the whole story.
Lainey has become
good friends with Tyler's Dad and takes him food every night but she has a
secret of her own she doesn't want to share.
What I really liked
about this book is that the author dealt with the subject of the heroine being
a virgin and the guy really wanting to have relations with her. Tyler respects
Lainey's wishes but doesn't agree with her. The angst between them makes this a
page turner.
The other thing I
like is how the issues are resolved between Tyler and his Dad. We all say
things we wish we could take back. Communication is key and being humble rather
than stubborn, though not easy, can go along way to mending fences.
Tyler ends up
hurting Lainey before he comes to his senses and realizes he really loves her
and needs her. His solution and
subsequent apology make for one of the best HEA reads I have ever read. 5
stars! Thanks to Entangled Publishing LLC for allowing me to read this ebook
through Netgalley.
