He’s the troubled teen turned tortured father.She’s the responsible good-girl turned protective mama.And there’s about to be a Texas-sized showdown.Fifteen years ago, Logan McCord was the classic irresistible rebel of the Double Diamond boys’ ranch. Scarred both physically and emotionally from his abusive father, he kept to himself. Except for Evie, the heart-thumping girl from the neighboring … the neighboring ranch. No matter how much he tried to ignore her, the sassy blonde was determined to make him hers, and who was he to turn down some sweet summer luvin’. But her overbearing, mad bull of a father had other ideas. He refused to let a no-good delinquent mess around with his daughter and made sure Logan was removed from Evie’s life. Or so he thought. Now Logan and Evie are back in Simple, Texas, and things are about to become anything but simple.
Evie Gardener has never forgotten her brooding bad boy, Logan. How can she when their son looks just like him? But she’ll never forgive the dirty sidewinder for lovin’ and leavin’ her pregnant. Now he’s really overstepped boundary lines thinking he’ll ride in and tame their wild, belligerent teenager for her. Just because the sexy cowboy is longing to mend fences doesn’t mean she’s ready to kiss and makeup. But the more time they spend together, the more Evie learns the truth about Logan’s tortured past. Slowly, Logan and Evie build back the trust they lost . . . until she finds out that he’s still keeping secrets. Now she’s boot stompin’, ass kickin’ mad and it’s going to take more than some country boy charm to calm this little Texas tornado.
Can Logan and Evie let go of their insecurities and learn that love is well worth the risk? Or will the mistakes they made in the past separate these Lone Star-struck lovers forever?

Great series.
Another fantastic read from Katie Lane! Taming a Texas Rebel is the third book in Ms. Lane’s Bad Boy Ranch series. I just love this writer’s voice. Her humor has me smiling and laughing throughout the story. The two main characters, Devlin McMillian and Holden Lancaster are very likable. I rooted for them to get their HEA. The secondary characters are fun and quirky. Also I enjoyed getting to see characters from the first two books again. Can’t wait to see what Katie Lane has in store for her readers next time.
What is not to love about this book? Absolutely Nothing!!! Katie Lane has done it again. We are back in Simple Tx where nothing is simple in the love of Logan and Evie. Torn apart in there young love they get to come back together and have the family they always wanted. I loved this book and I hope you love it too!
Taming a Texas Rebel by Katie Lane is book number two in the Bad Boy Ranch. This is Logan McCord and Evie Gardener’s story.
This was such a fun read. Once I started I couldn’t put it down. Logan and Evie’s paths cross again. The attraction and chemistry is still there plus more. These two never really got over one another but can they overcome the hurt they have suffered from miscommunication and deceit? I loved Logan and Evie’s story and their characters. All the supporting characters were a great addition to the story too. I’m looking forward to the next book in this series. Another fantastic read by this author.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Katie Lane’s books are always so captivating. We return to Simple, Texas for Evie and Logan’s story. We were teased with some of it in Taming a Texas Bad Boy. Personally, I loved the way it all unfolded before us – how Evie and Logan reconnected not just with each other but with their respective families. And the best part of all Katie Lane’s books is how it’s not just the hero/heroine that makes the story but the entire community. Loved this and can’t wait to read more Bad Boy stories!!!
When Logan McCord got into trouble as a teenager he and several other boys spent a summer on the Double Diamond Ranch with Chester and Lucas. These two old cowboys made a big impression on these troubled teens. Logan had one weakness while there and that was Evie Gardner whose father owned the neighboring ranch and couldn’t stand the boys at Double Diamond and did what he could to keep them away from his daughters. When a child resulted from Evie and Logan’s summer fling and years later Logan returns to Simple, Texas, things really get interesting for everyone involved.
Logan and Evie’s journey to find love is one with some tears and laughter. My heart broke for what Logan had suffered as well as Evie’s struggle with being a single mom. Neither of them were aware that if not for the meddling of her father, life could have been different for them. Taming a Texas Rebel has such a strong plot, lots of humor from secondary characters and a beautiful story of two people who get a second chance at love. I thoroughly enjoyed the town’s people who add lots of humor and support for this family. Simple, Texas is a place you want to live and the people are some you want to call friends. This is the second in this series and I can’t wait for the journey the next Double Diamond Ranch “boy” goes on to find his happiness.
Holy cow this book was absolutely fantastic and Katie Lane did Logan and Evie justice. Evie came back to help her father out and brought her son but what she didn’t count on was running into the father of her child. Logan came back to help out his friends and all heck breaks loose. The fireworks between them is undeniable but can she forgive him for not being around for his son.this book was absolutely emotional rollercoaster ride for them both and pride gets in there way .can they come together or will the past keep them apart?
Finished Bad Boy Ranch Books 1 and 2 in one day. Great characters. I love Katie Lane’s love stories. I laugh, I shake my head, I feel like I know these people.
