Helpful Score: 2
Going into this book I had a couple of strikes against me before I even got to the first page. Number one I am a guy, number two I am a guy who does not read a lot of romance novels. I picked this up for a girl I was dating at the time but she allways wound up leaving it at my place somehow. Eventually my curiosity got the better of me and I flipped it open. Over the next few weeks I found myself reading it here and there in little bits untill she was finished and gave it to me to read.
Having gotten that out of the way, let me share with you that I rather enjoyed reading this novel. It's a book that I felt is more about people than romance, (not that there isn't any of that going on!) but it also manages to fall into the cowboy genre as well. It's funny at times, and a bit sad at others, and the people in the story feel like they are real, well most of them anyway, a few are a bit over the top. The two main characters have an interesting chemistry between them that keeps things moving and more than a bit lively at times. These two, as well as many other characters come complete with baggage and backstory, which the author carefully doles out over the course of the tale. If you enjoy rodeo, cowboys or cowgirls, or tales dealing with that type of life and work out west than you could pick this up. Maybe you you like to laugh a little, or go through some drama and trauma? Perhaps you enjoy a tale with more umm...adult themes in some places, or maybe you just enjoy reading an overall good book. Pick this one up if you have the credits to spare. After all, I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did, so you might get a pleasant surprise as well.
