Winning the Cowboy’s Heart (Rocky Mountain Cowboys #5) By Karen Rock

MY REVIEW:
This story was really fun to read! I enjoyed the characters, family dynamics and reading about daily life on the ranch. I can’t wait to read more books in this “Rocky Mountain Cowboys” series!

I liked the main character Jewel and her determination to be a strong and smart woman in a “mans world” of ranching. She was a great character to read about!

The family dynamics between the two families (Lovelands and Cades) are strained due to their ancestors choices years ago, but as the story progresses, both families try to reconcile and make things work. Highly recommend this book and series-it’s alot of fun to read!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

MY REVIEW:
I enjoyed reading this simple Amish fiction book. I enjoyed reading about the characters in Ellie’s hometown and her love for the bakery. I was reminded reading this story how different Amish lives are to Englishman. I grew up in an Amish community so I love reading about their lives and struggles and families.

I liked the underlining theme of forgiveness throughout the book. I haven’t read the previous book 1 in this series, but I still enjoyed the book and characters so I feel it can be read as a stand alone novel. I enjoyed reading it!

Falling for the Cowboy Dad (Home to Eagle’s Rest) by Patricia Johns


Falling for the Cowboy Dad (Home to Eagle’s Rest) by Patricia Johns

This was such a good book-I loved it! and the cover of this book goes along perfectly with the story!

I loved the friendship of Grace and Billy although it was frustrating at times with their lack of communication regarding their feelings for each other. I liked reading about Billy’s experiences with fatherhood and coming to terms with his own mother and childhood. I liked that this story was realistic to life including complicated relationships, family, wondering about the future, parenthood, etc.

Very well written, great story line, wonderful characters…highly recommend! I read it in one night because I loved it and didn’t want to stop reading. Clean womens fiction with no language or explicit scenes.
