Cora Roberts has a plan: move to a new town and make a better life for herself and her son. As a single mom, she’s not looking for a relationship of any kind. But then she never expected to have the sexy Garrett offer her a night of uninhibited pleasure with no strings attached. Garrett Brooks never expected Cora’s surrender to his touch to be so sweet – or tempt him to want more than just a … just a single night with her. But as he pursues a deeper relationship with Cora, a threat from his past emerges.
Will Garrett be able to tempt Cora with his love, or will outside forces tear them apart?
Publisher’s Note: This steamy romance contains elements of power exchange. While it’s the fifth book in the Cuffs & Spurs series, it can be read and enjoyed as a standalone.

Another wonderful story from Stonehole Wyoming . Makes me wish I was 30 years younger and I would move thier in a heartbeat! Cora & Garret have a wild ride! Thankfully this story ends with an HEA I always like a story with such strong characters. Anya Summers has done it again!
I received an advance copy through Booksprout in exchange for an honest review.
Dominate Daddy!!!
His Tempting Love is book five in Ms. Summers Cuffs and Spurs series. If you’ve read any of Ms. Summers books in this series, she has not lost her momentum. This is not a quick book. The chapters are filled with descriptive everyday life and erotic storylines. Ms. Summers has not lost her touch.
Cora Roberts is a feisty, strong, naturally beautiful widow. Coming back to Jackson Hole was what she wanted and had to do, and a hot man is what she doesn’t know she needed.
Garrett Brooks is the owner of Indian Peak Ski Resort. He is rich, sexy and a dominant. He has everything he thinks he needs, except the right woman.
Garrett sees Cora one night at the Cuffs and Spurs, and he couldn’t take his eyes of her. Cora ends up under Garrett’s dominate hand and she loves it. There’s just one problem, Cinderella (Cora) had to be home by 2 a.m.; so we find out she’s a runner. Garrett took more from that one night, but he didn’t expect to see her again in his office the next day. Cora is not a lightweight and she has more serious priorities and one of them isn’t falling for Garrett’s dominance outside the bedroom. Cora proves to be more woman than Garrett thought, and when things are going good, Garrett’s past comes back in a twenty million dollar way.
This story is not just, boy meets girl, boy looses girl and then boy grovels to get girl back. My heart was with Garrett from the beginning even though he was a bit of an elitist. The story line is believable and the characters are really likeable. I rated this book five out of five because, this book wasn’t a rush job and it shows.
I am voluntarily writing this review for this book I received through Booksprouts arc.
Cora worked for Cuffs and Spurs a BDSM club as a waitress so she can provide for her self and her son. Working one night she is waiting on two cowboys she hadn’t seen there before but she was very new to the club.
Garret and Cora scened together and at the end she freaked out because she knew she had to get home to Milo. She leaves as Garret goes after her. The next day Garrett had to hire the yoga instructed so he could start offering classes. When she saw who the interview was with she knew that she couldn’t take the job and be so close to Garrett. Cora declined Garrett’s offer of work. Cora finds a job with Matt the bartenders gym as a yoga instructor at least she had not slept with him. Garrett goes back to the club on Friday hoping to see Cora, when she came to his table she was curt with him but then she realized his was a Dom and could not be nasty to him. Cora gets a call from her baby sister that her son is very ill.
Garrett takes her home and stays until Milo is put to bed. The next morning Garrett wakes up to find him on Cora’s couch with Milo sitting next to him. Cora comes down and couldn’t believe he spent the night.
Spencer, Cora’s cousin comes over to take them to the doctors office. Spencer couldn’t believe that Garrett was at Cora’s house and Garrett knew he would have to talk to him. Garrett and Cora are trying to work things out she knew she cared for him and Garrett cared for her and her son. Garrett told her he would baby sit while she worked at the club. Cora comes home to find her son sound a sleep. Garrett and Cora started to talk wanted her and took her to her room. She had Garrett promise her he would never lie to her if he wanted this to happen. Meanwhile Garrett’s old girlfriend from 13 years ago comes back and tries to blackmail him with a tape with her rape fantasy for 20 million dollars. He notified the police through his friend Jackson. Things were being set up for the police to get a confession from Gail his ex. They also found out that she had done this to a couple of men. Cora had no idea what was happening but it involved Spencer and Garrett. Cora couldn’t deal with the fact that he was cheating on her. When she goes to the club and finds Garrett and Spencer in a private room with a women strapped down on the bed. Cora thought he had been cheating on her and now she had her proof. Garrett come by and she tells him to leave and she never wanted to see or talk to him again. Then her cousin Spencer comes by after and tells her it’s not what it looked like. Cora is not sure she could trust Garrett. So read the book to find out the ending.
Loved the story. It is extremely well written and the story flows smoothly from beginning to the end and it holds your attention. Cora, along with her son Milo move to Jackson Hole to start over and there she meets Garrett. Milo adds a great child’s perspective to the story. The attraction is immediate and progresses rapidly through the book. The sexual encounters between Cora and Garrett are well written and realistic and have elements of BDSM. There also comes a trust issue that is a part of the book. I would highly recommend this book for a great read, you will not be disappointed. This is a great addition to the Cuffs and Spurs Series.
Garrett and Cora’s story really tugs at the heartstrings!
Unlike the previous books in this series, this romance doesn’t start with a slow burn. We get a scorching hot night of insta-lust that seems to be just that. Until Garrett just can’t walk away, nor can he understand this side of himself. He’s been burned before so he has absolutely no interest in a long-term relationship, but there’s a lot more to Cora and discovering all her layers draws him closer and closer to his future.
Cora’s a widow with a toddler, and she’s got way too much on her plate to even think about a relationship. But there’s something about Garrett that just lights her on fire and she simply has no power against his persistence.
These two have no problem with the physical chemistry, but they must face the really hard part of relationships – making the day-to-day, emotional investment part work. The author explores this process with beautiful, tender scenes that emphasize the importance of family, respect, trust, and independence.
It’s a terrific book, and my favorite in the series so far. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
I loved this book, Cora and Garrett were such great characters and Milo absolutely stole the show, especially at the end. In fact all the characters bar one were enjoyable. There were times of emotion, times of hot sex and times of pure joy. I would recommend this book to everyone.
