One Texas Cowboy Too Many

Brown returns to Burnt Boot, Texas with her readers in a story that was both comically light and emotionally hard hitting. She brings the setting to life with picturesque yet extremely vivid descriptions that allowed me to walk through these ranches alongside the characters. All the while, Brown tells a complex yet easily enjoyable tale about love, family, and all of the headaches that go with it. The feud between these two families was absolutely hilarious. It was so blown out of proportion that I couldn’t help but laugh at it. That said, because of it there were also some characters that I absolutely couldn’t stand. Nothing topped Leah & Rhett in this story however. As easy as it was for them to come together as individuals, the sheer number of things that they were battling was astounding. Not only was the relationship between them fantastic, but as individuals they were the type of people that you really want to read about. I enjoyed the fact that above all they both stayed true to themselves. This novel was a great addition to Brown’s Burnt Boot series. It was a fun read with that hint of emotion that makes the romance shine all the more brightly. It is best read as part of this series, but can also be easily read as a standalone. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.

Burnt Boot is not your average small town. I would not describe it as quiet. There is definitely a lot going on in this crazy little town. I started out confused and maybe that is because I have not had the chance to read the first couple of books in the series. I received an ARC of One Texas Cowboy Too Many in exchange for an honest review. Leah and Rhett as a couple were a hot commodity. In a town built on secrets, feuds and chaos it's hard to hear your heart without wearing a pair of earphones. Leah wants to keep the peace but wants a little happiness for herself. One Texas Cowboy Too Many is good but has the potential to be great, once I catch up on a little back history that I missed in the other books from the series.

"One Texas Cowboy Too Many" by Carolyn Brown is book three in the "Burnt Boot, Texas" series. This is Leah Brennan and Rhett O'Donnell's story. In Burnt Boot there are the Brennan's and the Gallagher's that have been feuding for years. If you are a Brennan, then you do what Mavis says. If you are a Gallagher, then you do what Naomi says. These ladies will do just about anything to get back at each other even if it's against the law. Then in Burnt Boot you also have the people that don't take either side. Leah has always been considered the quiet and good girl. Growing up Leah had a crush on Tanner Gallagher but because of the feuding they never dated. Leah meets Rhett O'Donnell and is immediately attracted to him. Rhett is off limits because he drives a motorcycle, has a ponytail, and has tattoos. Mavis, her grandmother, forbids her to have anything to do with Tanner or Rhett. Leah loves her family, but is tired of the feuding. Will Leah go against her grandmother's wishes? So far, no one in the family has. Can Leah live with the consequences if she does go against her grandmother's wishes? Carolyn Brown is an author that doesn't disappoint. She pulls you in at the beginning and keeps you hooked throughout the book. I read it in one day. The book is filled with humor, heartfelt moments, sensual and romantic scenes. I really loved Rhett's character. You will also fall in love with his dog. A great book! I look forward to reading any book by Carolyn Brown. I received a copy of this book from Netgalley/Sourcebooks Casablanca for an honest review.
