Mature Content. Intended for those 18+
Excerpt:
The
last fucking person Jeff wanted to deal with tonight was his ex. He’d had a
shitty ass day working in the south pasture on the water trough. Damn thing had
sprung another leak after he’d fix the one yesterday.
“What are you doin’ here,
Misha? I told you never to come out here without callin’ first.”
She
pushed forward, headed for the door, past a blonde woman. “I need to talk to
you.”
“There’s
nothin’ you need to say to me in front of my family and our son.”
“Please,
Jeff. It’s important.”
“Everything
is important,” he snapped, grabbing her arm to drag her into the main lodge
area. Whatever she had to say, he didn’t want said in front of the guests or
his family. “What the hell is this all about?”
“I
need a thousand dollars.”
“What?
Are you fuckin’ crazy! I ain’t givin’ you any money.”
“You
will or I’ll take custody of our son.”
“Bullshit!
We’ve been through this, Misha. We’ve already been to court and they gave me
full custody. You have visitation. Nothin’ more.”
She
yanked her arm out of his grasp. “I’ll lie or whatever I have to do to take him
from you.”
“You
bitch!”
“That’s
right. I’m a bitch. The same bitch you fucked, got pregnant, and then dumped
the minute your dick didn’t get what you wanted.”
“I’ll
see you in hell before you get my son or any money from me. Now get the hell
off my property before I have you thrown out of here on your ass.”
“Is
there a problem here, brother?” Jeremiah asked, standing close enough to Misha
to intimate her from the shifting of her stance.
His
entire family surrounded Misha and him. “I can handle her.”
“You
don’t have to alone, Jeffery,” Nina said, wrapping her arm around his waist.
“You’ll leave now, Misha, and don’t bother threatening Jeff or Ben again. I’ll
mortgage this entire property to keep him from your clutches.”
“We’ll
see about that!”
Misha
pushed her way through the throng of people his family made up, stomping her
way toward the door.
She didn’t even stop when Ben called, “Mama?”
Jeff
hurried to Ben’s side and picked him up. “It’s okay, buddy. Mama had somewhere
to be.”
“She
didn’t even stop, Daddy.”
Review:
Let me start off with saying that I received a copy of this book for my honest review. Not only did I receive this book; but because it was the second in the series, the author sent me the first one as well.
If I tell you that as soon as I started reading the first book, Make Mine A Cowboy, I pretty much knew what I was going to be doing for the next several hours. The Cowboy Dreamin' series is, well, hot. But more than that, it's fun. And full of family.
Lots and lots of family. There are, after all, nine young brothers and three of them are triplets. Oh my! Healing A Cowboy's Heart, the second of the series, is the story of the oldest brother, Jeff.
Now Jeff got a raw deal from his first wife.... now an ex and she was a real piece of work. Left poor Jeff on his wedding night to go off with friends and get drunk. Passed out on their floor and Jeff didn't see his new bride for a couple of days. But while she left him scarred and bitter, she did leave him with a cute little boy named Ben.
So imagine a dude ranch with 10 full size cowboys... including James, the boys' father and one pint size three year old cowboy and Terri Kennedy doesn't stand a chance.
Of course, Jeff wants nothing to do with her when he meets her. She's part of the team buying up land near his family's ranch. So she ditches her hotel room and decides to stay at the Young's dude ranch.
Not wanting to give any spoilers away, not only do I recommend this book, I heartily recommend the whole series. And can I hint I hope to read about all nine of the brothers... I sure am curious about.... well, never mind, I will let you read it for yourself!
