A little bit of Christmas Romance for your ever growing TBR list...
The Christmas Cowboy Hero by Donna Grant is one of those that makes you think in terms that they are real. In the back of my mind the pessimist kept saying, 'It's too good to be true Abby! Don't believe it." but then I kept reminding myself, "It's a romance of course it's too good to be true because it isn't true, it's fiction. Shut up and let them have their HEA!" So it is a little unbelievable but it's such a good story and Abby and her brothers deserve that HEA.
Clayton East left home as soon as he could, he joined the NAVY and went on to become a SEAL, now he's working in Africa protecting animals against poachers. That is until he gets a call from telling him his father has had a mild stroke and the ranch is in trouble. So the prodigal son returns.
Abby Harper has been taking care of her two younger brother since she was eighteen and their mother walked out on them signing guardianship over to Abby. Their father had died some years before that and so Abby devoted her life to making sure the boys get by. She has taken some courses but it's taking longer than normal to get her CPA certification in the meantime she's working as a grunt in someone else's firm. It hasn't been easy and it's about to get worse when Abby gets a call from the sheriff says her brother Brice has been arrested for cattle rustling. Clay is taken with Abby, she's beautiful and willing to do whatever it takes to take care of her brothers even if it means paying off the amount the cattle was worth. Clay is also sympathetic to the Harper family and suggest an alternative that her brother works of his debt by working on his ranch.
Clay pretty much falls in love with Abby at first sight and as much as he never wanted to stay at the ranch he missed it and Abby and her brothers fit in perfectly, even his parents love them. Abby is trying not to get her hopes up but Clay makes it impossible to say no to. It's not all going to be easy because the man behind the cattle rustling is willing to do anything to get rid of the powerful East Ranch empire.
Overall, This is one of my favorite Christmas Romance book this year so far. Donna Grant is a fantastic author and she really knows how to pull you in. This is the first of a new series so I will definitely catch the next one, especially if it features the sexy Deputy Danny.
