My Favorite Cowboy
Heart of Texas Book 3

February 26, 2019
Audrey Martinez is a veterinarian who has devoted her whole life to the care and protection of horses―even if doing so leaves her little time for meeting a man. Who would have thought that a strange case of criminal horseplay would lead her to falling deeply, wildly in love? If only the man who makes her heart race faster than a wild mustang would let his guard down, that is. . .
Caleb Harper is no ordinary cowboy. Sure, he wears his hat, boots, and jeans like a second skin, and displays an easygoing charm that comes from years of working on the ranch. But with his military background, and Army buddies at his side, he is tried-and-true Texas tough. Audrey knows she can trust a man like Caleb to help her save horses. But can Caleb trust himself to resist his attraction to Audrey―or will the sparks of their desire end up getting them burned?
Yet again I started a series with the last book but I didn't have a problem reading My Favorite Cowboy without first reading the previous books. Caleb Harper is the youngest of his siblings and was dealing with some pretty heavy abandonment issues. Which had him keeping his distance from veterinarian, Audrey Martinez. Until they're forced together by someone threatening the lives of horses and it's up to them to help stop whoever is poisoning the animals.
I love that both of these characters had their own hangups when it came to relationships and I thought it really made the story intriguing to see what would finally be the push that they needed to get together. It added that sexual tension that I love in romance books, which paired really well with the mystery aspect of the story.
I also enjoyed how deep the family connection was with the Harper siblings. I'm a sucker for a good family oriented story so now I definitely want to go back and read the first two books in the series. Overall, this book is a definite must read.
