I loved this 2nd book in the series. This time it’s Ash and Lexi’s turn.
Ash knows he needs to find a wife, but even though he’s starting to have feelings for Lexi, he doesn’t want to give in. He’s fighting it because he doesn’t think he wants to get married for real.
As for as Lexi, she wants her soulmate. At first she thinks Ash is a player but little by little, as her feelings for him develop, he starts proving her wrong.
And then there’s the situation with the baby. You’ll need to read the book for yourself to find out what happens there.
So the book has sweet and sexy, laughter and tears, romance, drama, and startling surprises.
I so love Rhonda’s books and the Tarnation series is a wonderful addition to her books. I can’t to see what happens to the other brothers.
I thoroughly enjoyed this delightful romance. The entertaining storyline is well balanced with drama and emotional turmoil. I loved the sparks that flew between Ash and Lexi and the fact that their relationship had many obsticles to overcome. Another wonderful book in this fun series.
I really loved the plot of The Cowboy’s Son and the interesting twists. This is one of my favorite series by Rhonda Lee Carver. I look forward to the next Tarnation, Texas book to see what curveball Buzz will throw at his sons next.
I voluntarily read and reviewed a complimentary Advance Reader Copy.
This series is so much fun. The Colt brothers just recently met, two sons from their father’s marriage and three with his girlfriend. They are trying to adjust to not only living together on the huge ranch Grinning Spurs, but also running the businesses and other investments their father has stipulated in his will.
Ash and Brennan have a bit of feud going on since they both found themselves attracted to the veterinarian CC. Ash is over it but there is still friction between them. Seems they are a lot alike.
Lexi has a kennel, she does grooming and boarding for the town’s pets while owners go on vacation. After being cajoled by her family and friends she puts together a welcome basket for her new neighbors, the Colt brothers.
As a result the brothers elect Ash to go thank her in person for the lovely gift.
This is the start of a very nice relationship. That is until a baby is left for Ash, on his doorstep, by someone he doesn’t remember.
A complex tale, with suspense coming from several angles. It seems the Colts aren’t the only ones with problems. Lexi has her share with her mother and sister.
Plenty of laughter and a simmer to sizzle relationship fraught with many hurdles.
A well written perfectly paced story pulling you in from the start. This was about Ash and his brothers and half-brothers have to come together to deal with their father’s will wishes. They all have their own adult life to take into account. Lexi has her own problems and finds she wants to start out just friends but ends up more.
Omg I Tarnation series book 2 is proving these brothers are absolutely wonderful and now we have Ash’s story and let me tell you this book will suck you in and I found myself laughing and crying and cheering with the characters. This story has a few twist and turns and I found myself saying wtf lol I think Rhonda did absolutely brilliant move on that.please this book is absolutely worth it and you will fall in love with Lexi and Ash
Ash is stuck in Tarnation Texas due to an absentee father, Lexi is a hopeless romantic who is waiting on her Prince Charming.
Sparks fly as soon as they meet and they struggle with their family issues. Can they overcome them to have their fairytale.
