Rescuing the Texan's Heart

GIVEAWAY

OBENHAUS, MINDY
RESCUING THE TEXAN'S HEART

Melting His Heart

Cash Coble is desperate for a change. After working in the family business for ten years, he's stressed out and overworked. When he heads to Colorado to visit his ailing grandfather, he finds his mood lifted by the beautiful woman living next door. After a troubled past, ice climber Taryn Purcell isn't looking for love. Especially not with a charming Texan who's consumed by work. But there's something about Cash that captures her heart. Never one to back down from a challenge, Taryn promises to show Cash how to carve out a happy life—one that includes her.

My Review:

We're back in Ouray, Colorado and I'm loving it. The author has really piqued my curiosity about this mountain town with this series. I dare you to google image 'Ouray, Colorado' and not fall in love. It seems to me that Obenhaus has captured the essence of an incredible community. And ice climbers? I didn't even know they existed. But they do, and Taryn is one. What a cool hobby/occupation for a heroine to have.

Love the dynamics between workaholic Cash and free-spirited Taryn. They clash from the get go, but sparks fly anyway and smolder all the way through a complicated and heartbreaking love story. Heartbreaking because both Taryn and Cash are struggling to find their true identity as they try to put situations from the past into perspective. There's some lovely light-hearted moments and just as many heart tugging ones, but in the end, the Texan's heart is definitely worth rescuing.  If you love a timeless, classic romance that packs an emotional punch, this is the book for you.

      I know -- the ice climbing threw me. I'd never heard of it before -- like rock climbing only on a sheet of ice. Ack! Good luck, Maxie.

    Ice climbing is cool, for sure! : ) I have a thing for wintery, snowy stories, so this sounds awesome.

      There's something cozy about them, isn't there? As long as you're not ice climbing while reading! Good luck, Merry!

      LOL -- after the winter we had last year, I don't blame you! But this one is worth reading -- think of it as literary air conditioning during a heat wave. Good luck, Becky.

    We hope to go out to Colorado for a few days next month. I love to read about Colorado although we won't be there in the winter. (I Hope!)
