Billionaire Ryder
Blackwell has got it all under control. The wealthiest cattle baron this
side of the Mississippi, he’s built an empire for himself in hopes of
getting distance from a tortured past. But when a stunningly sexy—and
strong-willed—new vet comes to town just in time for Christmas, Ryder
knows he’s met the one spirit he just can’t tame…Lara Montgomery doesn’t
want to be involved with any man, least of all the rich, infuriating,
and unbearably sexy Ryder Blackwell. She vows never to tangle with the
charming rancher, but when he offers her the ultimate deal—one weekend
at his ranch in exchange for a near-priceless horse—Lara cannot refuse.
And as the nights get colder and their attraction gets hotter, Lara’s
about to get all she’s ever wanted for Christmas…
The
Billionaire Cowboy
is a quick read the combines the right amount of conflict, humor, and sexy fun
times, along with just a dash of action. You know a book is going to be good
when it starts with one brother (Jason) warning his other brother (Ryder) that
he may have a bit more of a “pissed-off female” headed his way than he can
handle. And Lara arrives on the scene spitting mad, full of fire and enough
gumption to tell Ryder off when no one else in their town would dare talk to
him like that if they weren’t a blood relative. It was a great opening scene
that left me chuckling and ready to dive in for more.
Ryder and Lara are both determined
and passionate people who have far more in common than either know. The
chemistry between the two is burn-the-house-down hot and makes for some steamy
encounters. Over the course of the weekend they find their common ground and
realize that a weekend may not be enough for them. It looks like this cowboy
may have finally met his match. All in all, The
Billionaire Cowboy was an entertaining way to spend a couple of hours and
I’m looking forward to reading more of Ms. Baxter’s work. I cannot wait for the
next book in the series and learning more about Jason’s story – and maybe meet
the third brother.
