A Cowboy Christmas

GIVEAWAY
GOODNIGHT, LINDA
HERNE, RUTH LOGAN
A COWBOY CHRISTMAS

Second chances at love. A duet of Christmas cowboy romances.

Rancher Caleb Girard never thought he deserved Kristen Andrews. But when his ailing foster father brings her home as his nurse, Christmas blessings could surprise them all in Snowbound Christmas.

After a tragic loss, Ty Carrington tries to hide from the world on his Idaho ranch...until Jessica Lambert and her adorable daughter sneak into his life and his heart in Falling for the Christmas Cowboy.

My Review:

Christmas + Cowboys + Second Chance Romance? Yes please! Bring it on!!!!

Snowbound Christmas by Linda Goodnight -- There's something about the holidays that puts an extra strain on the vulnerable. While Caleb is all closed off and stoic in a manly I-don't-need-any-help kind of way, he's definitely vulnerable. His dad is critically ill and Caleb is fast losing hope. What good will any kind of Christmas cheer do them? And the tragedy of his childhood (before his foster father took him in) has left some deep scars - feelings of abandonment he can't shake. That's what stood between Kristen and him in high school and it's a chasm between them now as they become reacquainted. But she's all about faith and hope and being a light to those around her. And she believes in miracles. And that can be contagious...even among the most curmudgeonly.  A stirring, warmhearted second chance romance full of Christmas spirit!

Falling for the Christmas Cowboy by Ruth Logan Herne --

A hero and heroine who have survived tragedies in their past are ripe for a second chance at finding romance...even if that's not on either of their agendas. Jessica has a cute-as-a-button four-year-old to take care of and a new future (free from drama and pain) to build for them both. Ty's spent five years grieving. He has put up boundaries around himself that even his family hasn't been able to breach. And he's good with that -- until a beguiling widow with an adorable little girl show up in town. Confusion, chaos, and sweet yearnings for a happily-ever-after suddenly turn his world upside down and make this Christmas one that might just offer up a second chance at happiness...if he finds the faith to finally put the past to rest!

    1. Too many books are the best reader problems, aren't they?! You'll cherish these two stories when you get to them...closer to Christmas might be just the thing to stir up all that seasonal goodness.

  3. Hyperventilating here!! Two Ruthie books in one week with a Linda Goodnight bonus, to boot. 😍 Ive really wanted to read more of Goodnight's books. She has an amazingly successful back list.

    I was so excited for your line-up this week. I already own two of the books, but always look forward to your personal take on them. I wish I could say I already own Ruthie's, but I'll take my chances here first. Thanks, Kav.

  7. I have this one courtesy of Ruthy! :-) It's on my TBRR(to-be-read-and-reviewed) pile, and it's taunting me...lol! Or should I refer to that as delicious readerly anticipation?

    I really love reading a story where the hero & heroine "just can't fight the feeling anymore" (cue the song) and fall in love....sweetness galore!

    1. Definitely go with 'delicious readerly anticipation' - sounds so much nicer than taunting even if that's what some books do!

    3. They really do!!! Or at least my books do, they glare at me until I pick them up and then they act as if they didn't give me the evil eye the whole time...lol!! Thank goodness I now have a separate room I keep them in, I can ignore their sulkiness until I'm good and ready to read them....HAHA 😂

    4. lol -- sometimes I expect mine to start dancing around the room like a Disney movie in their bid to get my attention. Do you think we're normal, Trixi? Or should our families be worried?!

      Delete
    5. Kav, my husband no longer worries about me or wonders if I'm "normal" 😂 I always tell him that he knew what he was getting into when he married me 😂

      Now, dancing books to the beat of a Disney movie...somehow that struck me as hilarious! Thankfully I read that sentence in the privacy of my home where I could gafaw without embarrasment!!! That certainly paints a picture in my head...HAHA!! You're a riot, Alice 😂

    6. :-) At Christmas -- instead of sugarplums dancing in our heads it will be books!
