Skye
Kennedy was raised in a self-supporting commune, but things have changed since
their leader passed away two years ago. His son, Gabriel, has secretly expanded
the commune’s businesses to include things that are not legal. Skye has been
keeping their farming and garden parts alive with her skillful management and
abhors what Gabriel is doing. One night, she witnesses him killing another
woman of the commune and decides now is the time to run. She tries to help the
other young women in the commune, but Skye knows too much and realizes that
Gabriel will order her killed if she’s caught. She escapes and winds up in
Montana, where she ends up with her car broken down and needing a job.
Declan
McGrath is busy running the family ranch, so he needs to hire some ranch hands.
One day, a woman who can barely stand shows up on his doorstep desperate for
work. The job is hard even for a man, but Skye convinces him that she can do
the work. He hires her, and even agrees to let her stay in his spare bedroom
since it appears that she has no place to live. Soon, Skye impressively shows
him how much of a hard worker she is, and the two settle in nicely even as he
grows attracted to her. Yet, Declan suspects she is hiding—or running—from
something. Turns out that he is right because she is wanted for a murder she
didn’t commit, and she has evidence that Gabriel was assisting some dangerous anti-government
terrorists about to commit a violent act. Can Declan help Skye prove her
innocence and protect her?
Things
soon turn dangerous for Skye and Declan in Jennifer Ryan’s LOVE OF A COWBOY.
Bad people are after her and they will do whatever it takes to silence her.
Skye isn’t sure who to trust, but Declan is a decent man who soon wins her
trust. How will he react when she tells him her story? Will he believe her—or
turn her in? Skye has proven to be resilient, and it helps her on the ranch
because no job is too small for her. She can work in the fields and in the
house. Declan’s family—his brothers and sister—soon see what he can’t: that
he’s falling for Skye. But they will need to “free her” of the trouble that is
hanging over her head. She can’t go to the police because Gabriel is shrewd,
and he also has the local police in his pocket.
In
LOVE OF A COWBOY, the plot has as many curves as a winding road. Just when Skye
thinks she is headed to clearing her name and getting everyone arrested for
their crimes, things change, and she and Declan are back in danger. Meanwhile,
their friendship turns sexual, and daily they grow fonder of each other. But
once everything is over, Skye will probably return to the commune because her
family and friends are there. They need her. But does she need Declan
more? Do they have any chance for a future together?
LOVE
OF A COWBOY is an entertaining and suspenseful tale right from the first
chapter and all the way to the end. Readers will love Skye’s spunk and
determination, while Declan’s dedication to the woman he’s fallen for will be
endearing. Don’t miss the adventure, drama, and romance in LOVE OF A COWBOY.
