Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the sexiest cowboy of them all… the market.
The last thing I expect to find is irritating, yet sexier-than-sin Noah Daniels.
***
Nine years ago, I left town only to return with a broken heart, a love for restoring vintage cars, and the plan to never leave Copper Creek again.
When hotter-than-hell Kate Snow decides to fix up her great aunt’s house, turning down her offer isn’t an option. She needs the extra hands so she can meet her deadline.
And I need the extra cash.
But the job comes with additional perks: Hanging out with Kate. Teaching her about horses.
The mind-blowing sex with her.
What I haven’t planned on is for my heart to be a willing part of the deal—a deal that could result in Kate landing her dream job. In Beverly Hills.
Fix Me Up, Cowboy is a standalone romance. All the books in the series can be read in any order.

Fix Me Up, Cowboy by Stina Lindenblatt is the third book in her Copper Creek series. I didn’t read the previous two books and this was very easy to read as a stand alone. To be truthful I didn’t know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised to find that I loved this book!! The author puts the reader right into the book so that you visualize Kate’s fall into the mud. You’ll love Deacon and his cuteness and Charlie Kate’s dog who loves to read to the kids.
Kate Snow has come to Copper Creek, Montana to clean out her Great Aunt’s house and put it on the market. Since she’s never even seen a horse or cleaning their stalls out, the absolutely clutter of her Aunt’s home will give her a look why Charlotte never married when she finds her letters from her only love John. Kate figures it will be easy to hire someone to help what could go wrong? Well a lot especially if the cowboy next door refuses to help out. But she will find out that her Beverly Hills “friends” are nothing like the true ones she finds in Copper Creek who accept her as herself not a snooty socialite. But she’ll soon be the proud owner of Cowboy boots, a hat and a very hot pair of shorts that makes Noah salivate. When Kate and Noah become lovers will she go back to California or can she see herself staying in Copper Creek?
Noah Daniels loves to restore old cars but he also is part owner in his Grandfathers ranch with his brothers. When Charlotte wills her old Thunderbird to him he’s anxious to start its restoration. He doesn’t expect Kate, Charlotte’s niece to beautiful even though she’s self conscious about her limp from a series fracture a year ago. He won’t have any problems teaching her how to muck out stalls, chase a bat from the attic and introduce her to Copper Creek, line dancing and his family and friends. But he knows she’ll be leaving soon or can he convince her to stay and find out if she can love him and his home?
Here is a character who learned and grew into a strong woman. She learned what true friendship was and that the people she left behind weren’t real friends. She pulled up her big girl panties and did what she had to even when she didn’t like it. Her reward was0 finding her one and only. There were lots of moments of laughter and some sadness as well. All in all, a very enjoyable book.
This book was gifted to be by the publisher in return for an honest review.
This was third book in the series however I did not know and I did not feel lost but I will go back and read those two books considering I enjoyed this book. Kate Snow receives a house and land when her aunt dies, she barely knew her aunt since her snobby family barely had anything to do with her since she was not living like they were but Kate had fond memories of her and had left an impression since her aunt left her everything she owned besides a beat up car. Kate has also left since she feels lost after catching her fiance with her best friend..These people are horrible and treat her horribly how she thinks these are her friends is mind boggling. Luckily for her while being in Copper Creek she meets a hot cowboy and the nice people there but she knows that she is leaving back to her home in LA. Noah the hot cowboy has been burned before and he refuses to have that happen to him again especially with a woman that reminds him of his ex but Kate is too hot to ignore. These two have hotness together and agree that while she is here they will act on this attraction but can’t help in following in love, leaving heartbreak. Kate wakes up but how my friends? Grab a copy and find out you will enjoy! Can we please get a story on Troy!

My favorite book in the Copper Creek series. I was hooked from start to finish. The banter (and chemistry) between Noah and Kate was great. Charlie was the cutest sidekick.

There are so many laugh out loud funny moments in this book – it’s so well written with a lot of heart & sexy times.

Holy. Moly. Yes! I’m a sucker for all books involving a cowboy and Fix Me Up, Cowboy is another book to add to my re-read list.
When Kate arrives in Copper Creek to settle her late aunt’s estate, she never expects to find a sense of belonging. All her life Kate has only known Beverly Hills so, upon arriving in Copper Creek she realizes she is not in Beverly Hills any longer.
The chemistry between Kate and Noah is there from the start and makes the story a lot more interesting. Noah is not looking for love and neither is Kate. I loved that Kate was finding herself in Copper Creek and realizing what she could be without being in Beverly Hills. Stina Lindenblatt has written an amazing book about not only romance but finding yourself. I will gladly re-read this gem any-day!
There is nothing I love more then Stina’s cowboy books!
In this book we have spoiled LA princess Kate and rancher Noah.
As an outsider of the family Kate’s aunt leaves her the house in Montana when she passes away.
Small town boy Noah, who was born and raised in Mt and only left for a short while encounters this big city girl.
Noah’s love for old restored cars brings Kate into his life courtesy of the aunt.
Noah & Kate could not be anymore different but as they say opposites attract.
The third book in the Copper Creek series is just as scintillating as the first two.
Kate and Noah come from two completely different worlds. It doesn’t seem like it would work but sparks start to fly from the beginning.
Both Noah and Kate are loveable characters. Even though she’s a Beverly Hills gal, kate is not as high maintenance as you would think. An Noah doesn’t have trouble admitting his feelings even as he was burned before.
I loved this! 5 stars!!
I am a huge fan of author Stina Lindenblatt, and waiting for her next book is always a form of sweet torture. Fix Me Up, Cowboy, is her latest offering, and it is chock-full of well-described characters, a hot couple, and the conflicts that arise when a woman from Beverly Hills falls for a man from Copper Creek, a small town in Montana.
Kate Snow is not the stereotypical socialite from Beverly Hills. She is spunky, determined, and walks with a limp. She caught her boyfriend in bed with her best friend, got into a major auto accident, and as a result, has never been the same. Then Kate’s great aunt passes away and bequeaths her home to Kate. Kate decides to personally pack-up the house and put it on the market. She never thought the small town of Copper Creek could become her home, nor did she think she could meet the man of her dreams, while carving out a new career in the process.
Noah Daniels is a rancher and car restoration expert. He has returned to his childhood home in Copper Creek after being away for a few years, where he learned a new trade and had his heart broken. Helping Kate out is an easy task, since he could use some extra money and her late aunt was such a positive presence in his life. Noah and Kate share an instant attraction, which evolves into much more.
This is a fun and passionate love story. Ms. Lindenblatt nicely combines heat, drama and humor into this fast-paced romantic read. I immediately connected with both Kate and Noah, and I cheered them on as they fell into lust and love. In addition, I liked the author’s rendering of the Beverly Hills socialite scene. Overall, this is a steamy book that can be enjoyed as a standalone.

This was a fun, flirty, entertaining read that I very much enjoyed. Kate will have you laughing out loud as the LA princess learns about life on a ranch while Noah will have you swooning. At first Kate can’t get out of Copper Creek fast enough but as she works with Noah to fix the old place up and getting to know him and the townspeople she finds the place is good for her soul and Noah – well he’s good for the rest of her! Will she end up staying or will the call offering her the dream job she’s been waiting for pull her home? Grab a copy and find out, I highly recommend it.
I Love these books,
I Love visiting Copper creek through Stina’s incredible writing, I always enjoy my time there as I continously flick through the pages. They give me a cosy feeling inside everytime I read them and Fix Me Up Cowboy was no exception. Even though it is the 3rd book, it can be read as a standalone without book 1 and 2 but I strongly advise to read them too as they are equally Amazing as this one.
I adored Noah and Kate’s story, they are such wonderful characters and quite the opposite, but have electrifying chemistry and lots of witty hilarious banter.
There are so many joyous moments, that wrap themselves around you, and I completely fell in Love with every word, this may be my favourite of all the series.
Fix Me Up Cowboy is A sexy, Romantic, funny feel good story you will not be able to stop yourself from falling in love with it.
It has my highest recommendation… LOVED IT.
A lovely book where opposites attract and someone learns the value of people over things. Really worth the read in the latest edition of Copper Creek. The characters are all charming and you will laugh out loud.
3.75
Fix Me Up, Cowboy is the third in a series, which I wasn’t aware of initially, so I haven’t read the other couple of books. While I think reading the other books could’ve enhanced the series for me, the book is a stand alone.
Kate is a high society rich girl who just lost her Great Aunt, the only person in her life to keep her grounded. Her aunt wasn’t part of the uppity Beverly Hills social set, which is partially what drew Kate to her. Despite having only met her once in her youth, she always looked up to the Aunt who stuck her own path in Montana. Now her aunt has passed away and left Kate the ranch. Despite having no life skills (cooking, cleaning, etc), Kate takes off to Montana to pack and sell the house.
Noah is the sexy cowboy next door who is tasked to her teach her how to care for the horses, etc from the ranch. He instantly sees her as a stuck up rich girl and dubs her Princess. Over time they must learn about mistaken impressions and being thrust into roles they don’t want. Chemistry exists between them from the first meeting but it takes time to realize how much they have in common.
As a first time reader of the author, and the series, this book was just ok for me. It was fairly formulaic in following the rich girl/backwoods cowboy trope but I found I, also, personally couldn’t relate to these characters. Kate was a 28 year old who didn’t know how to do basic life skills, she was walked over by the people in her life (best friend slept with her boyfriend, etc) and she just rolled over, etc. Noah had disposable relationships and had a chip on his shoulder from his ex girlfriend, who Kate reminded him of, etc. Unfortunately, these things made it difficult for me to connect with the characters. The story was good and flowed easily and eventually I came to enjoy them but I was never truly invested in their HEA. Perhaps reading the other books in the series would’ve helped me to know Noah up front and I could’ve corrected with him going in. I’m any case, the story is a good one and I’d be interested in reading more from the author.

I’ve really enjoyed this series so far, and Fix Me Up, Cowboy reminded why. It’s light, it’s fun, great characters and a little dash of conflict for spice.
Socialite Kate travels to Copper Creek to clean out her deceased aunt’s house. At least that is what she tells everyone. Taking a break from some serious life blows is part of the truth. She meets Noah when he comes over to help with the horses and there’s a nice spark between them that just needs a little nurturing to turn into more.
Noah has a firm no dating rule for good reason. His heart has been broken by someone with elegant tastes like Kate. But he soon finds out there are some differences between Kate and his ex, and that they have quite a bit in common.
This series is light, sweet, and a fun romance. There aren’t a lot of surprises, but that’s okay, because it is the characters that make this story appealing.
3.5-3.75 stars. This was a pretty good book. Fix Me Up, Cowboy is Kate and Noah’s story. Kate’s great aunt dies leaving her home and farm in Copper Creek, Montana to her. She has had a bad time lately after catching her boyfriend and best friend in bed and getting in a car accident, leaving her with scars and a permanent limp. Kate is a Beverly Hills rich girl but she decides to head to the farm for awhile to pack up her aunt’s home, get it ready to sell, and reset herself. There she meets Noah, who was a friend and neighbor to her aunt. Sparks flying between them, Noah and Kate spend time together and he helps her care for the farm. They fall for each other and Kate has to decide if she wants to take a chance on love with Noah and life in Montana.
I liked this story, even if it started off a little rough for me. I wasn’t sure if I liked either character. There was a lot of stereotyping each other and a lot of cliches going on in the “cowboy hates stuck up city girl” trope. Kate does come off as stuck up and spoiled at first. She has no idea how to do normal adult things, like laundry or cooking. She was lacking in the life skills department, which was not cute and was hard to identify with. Noah comes off as a manwhore and disliked Kate, because she reminded him of an ex who broke his heart and he found her spoiled. But they both improved as people as the book went on and they get to know each other for who they are. Kate was able to make good friends in Montana and see how shallow her life in LA was. I came to see they both are actually good people and I really liked them together. I grew to feel their chemistry and see how they truly fit together despite their differences.
Overall, I enjoyed this sweet and sexy story. It was fun seeing Kate and Noah’s relationship develop. I look forward to more from Ms. Lindenblatt in the future!
I loved this delightful opposites attract romance! Kate is recovering from a heartbreaking accident in California. When she inherits a Montana ranch from a long lost aunt, she decides to visit and learn more about the aunt she once adored. But life on the ranch is so different than Rodeo Drive. When sexy cowboy, Noah lends a hand, she may find the life she has been looking for. Noah already made the mistake of giving his heart to someone who loved money more than him. Kate is so far out of his league, but the broken, lost, kind woman just may not be what she seems. I really loved how Kate and Noah connected, helping each other heal, and their chemistry is amazing. I loved seeing Noah’s brothers, the women who love them, and new friends who are all fun and entertaining. This is a fun and flirty, sweet and sexy romance with so much heart. I can’t get enough of these sexy cowboys and can’t wait for more from Copper Creek.
This is my favorite book so far in the series! I loved reading about Kate, and seeing more of Noah. Again, this third book can be read as a standalone, but is best enjoyed after reading the first two books in the series. It’s an interesting tale of two people from very different backgrounds as they collide and mesh.
This is more than just a cowboy romance, it’s so much more! Our cowboy Noah meets his match in Kate, a spoiled heiress from L.A. Two different worlds, two different mindsets, backgrounds, friends and families; yet they seem to hit it off in this fun book!
We’ve seen Noah in the first two books, but it’s so nice to see more of him, and get his backstory. He’s got some struggles and hiccups in his past. He gives off a fun and carefree vibe, but it’s covering a kind and generous soul. Kate is in town after losing a long lost great aunt. She’s got her own past to overcome, and find a new future. Noah shows Kate some of the charm of small town life in Copper Creek. Kate may be my favorite female character o fMs. Lindenblatt so far; overcoming her tragedy and making a new future for herself as well. She’s strong in a quiet and unassuming way that I related to quite well.
What starts off as a temporary thing after they manage to annoy each other to pieces, turns into something more. They both need companionship, but more than that, they complete each other and see each other, and most of all make each other better…in bed and in life. These two manage to make their differences work, and it works well for theirm.
I think the differences between these two made it more interesting and quick to read. Kate’s family made it easier to love Noah and all his fantastic townsfolk. Despite not being part of either a ranch or anywhere near Beverly Hills, I was able to relate to both characters and follow their lives-though Noah of course was a very convincing factor for Copper Creek.
This was a fantastic addition to the Copper Creek novels. My favorite, and I can’t wait to see what happens to the remaining single characters, and come back to see more of my favorites.
Favorite Quotes:
“The last person in the world I need to get involved with is a cowboy. Especially one who likes to irritate me half the time.”
“Some people treat trust like it’s something they don’t have to earn or nurture. If they break it, it’s not a big deal. Only it is…”
“Let me tell you, Kate in a tight tank top while swinging a sledgehammer is both scary and a turn-on.”
“There’s something comforting about being with the man you like while blanked by the sounds and scents of nature. And let’s not forget the tantalizing scent that’s all Noah.”
Star Ratings:

I love this series, but I think this is my favorite one! Copper Creek is a series, but it can be read as a stand-alone (but you really should read all of them!). Fix Me Up, Cowboy is a sweet, light, funny Rom-Com. I loved watching Kate and Noah love fall in love! LOVED!
I loved it. I think this is my favorite book in this series, so far! The characters and their relationships are great. I can’t wait to read more. I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
