The Librarian and the Rancher
Josie is having a bad week. First her bank and retirement accounts have been drained. She was fired from her job at the library and then she is shot at, involved in a car chase, chased through the woods, and is rescued by a hot cowboy from the side of a cliff, and ruined her best heels.
Gabe is former army, sometimes police officer and full time rancher. He just rescued the girl he has had his eye on from the side of a cliff on his property, while someone is shooting at them. He is determined to keep her safe, end the threat to her, then he can sent about making her his.
A light and easy read. Josie is a hot mess. Gabe is a likable hero. A short epilogue would have been nice to explain the missing money, and why she was abruptly fired.

The synopsis for this book was intense and pulled me right into the story. I was already on edge and wanted to know more.
The action began from the very first chapter. O’Connor has really outdone herself with a story that is both exciting and humorous. Josie’s predicament came on fast and hard, and yet her thoughts created such humor in the face of it all and kept me giggling.
As Gabe started to piece together the possible cause for Josie’s troubles, I was very intrigued about how everything would come together.
When things started to heat up, the story became completely irresistible. The action-packed race to the end was intense perfection.
I loved this exciting story and can’t wait for O’Connor’s next book!
