GIVEAWAY RANDOM RETRO READ DAY |
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:
Sometimes, a story is so good that it's worth a second time 'round and these two fit into that category. I read this book (two sweet novellas by amazing authors) when it released last year but I have an extra copy I've been saving for such a time as this. So -- here's a repeat of my review and giveaway.
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!
