The Cowboy Takes a Wife
ByPublisher Description
THIRD TIME'S A CHARM?
Retired bull rider Cole Davis was much more successful in the ring than in his relationships. Twice divorced, he's come home to work on the family ranch and build his budding art career—and steer clear of anything serious when it comes to women. But when he overhears Devon Newberry being bullied by her pushy mother, he comes up with a plan to help the pretty shopkeeper.
Though Devon hates lying, the blue-eyed cowboy's proposal of a fake relationship is working perfectly…until her feelings become all too real. She knows Cole's heart isn't available, but she can't help hoping she can change his mind!

“4 stars
Nice, steady romance that starts with a fake boyfriend trope but quickly, and believably, develops into something more. Devon's mother is ruthlessly critical of her daughter, and in a moment of defiance, Devon asks Cole to pretend to be her boyfriend. Her mother, a snob of historic proportions, immediately disapproves, and continues to throw eligible, but completely wrong for her, bachelors her way. Cole, a retired bull rider, is now an aspiring artist, as well as the caretaker of his family's ranch. Devon has had a crush on his since high school, and she's worried about losing her heart to him. After two failed marriages, Cole has sworn off another serious relationship. I enjoyed how the romance developed, as well as how the relationship between Devon and her mother evolved as well.”
