A True Cowboy Christmas (Cold River Ranch #1) Blog Tour +Review


 

Blurb
From USA Today bestselling author Caitlin Crews comes A True Cowboy Christmas, the first in a sensational series debut about a cowboy, a farm girl, and the greatest gift of all. . .

Gray Everett has a heart of gold but that doesn’t mean he believes in the magic of Christmas. He’s got plenty else to worry about this holiday season, what with keeping his cattle ranch in the family and out of the hands of hungry real-estate investors looking to make a down-and-dirty deal. That, plus being a parent to his young and motherless daughter, equals a man who will not rest until he achieves his mission. Now, all Gray needs is the help of his lifelong neighbor. . .who happens to have grown into a lovely, spirited woman.

For Abby Douglas, the chance to join forces with Gray is nothing less than a Christmas miracle. Much as the down-to-earth farmer’s daughter has tried to deny it, Abby’s been in love with stern, smoking-hot Gray her whole life. So when Gray proposes a marriage of convenience as a way to combine land—and work together toward a common cause—Abby can’t refuse. But how can she convince Gray that sometimes life offers a man a second chance for a reason. . .and that their growing trust and mutual passion may be leading to true and lasting love?

I truly enjoyed this book. The characters suck you in and I felt for them. Gray is a great man but he has demons like any one. His father left the family ranch that he has been working for the last ten years to him and his brothers. Trouble is neither of his brothers want the ranch. He doesn’t want to end up like his father. He wants more out of life. He wants a mother for his daughter. He notices his neighbor Abby and decides that she would make a dependable stable partner. Abby has had a crush on Gray just about all her life. All those times she dreamed of Gray asking her to marry him, this was never one of them. Does she love him enough for the both of them? Can she deal with him not returning her feelings? Could she help him and maybe he will develop feelings for her, she can only hope? This book was an emotional rollercoaster. I felt for Gray and for Abby. Neither one has ever had it easy and its not looking up now. Abby has Gray built up in her head, but is that really how he is? Both of them with have some adjusting to do. I loved this story and look forward to reading the next book when it comes out. I look forward to reading some of Caitlin’s other books as well. I highly recommend this book. It was a great Christmas read.
