Cowboy Town is a very sweet love story with ups & downs along the way. Eden (Edie) Cross used to be fun and carefree, but when both of her parents passed away, her freewheeling attitude disappeared. She didn't have anyone except her best friend, Jules, and boyfriend, Matt. Matt was a "safe" boyfriend, but something happens which makes Eden decide to pack up her things and leave on a road trip. She leaves her hometown of Sydney, Australia and ends up driving four states over to Pine Creek, Northern Territory. Her journey had been fun, but she felt different when she landed in Pine Creek. She had no idea what was to come when she decided to stay for a while.In comes Jackson Henley, half owner of a cattle and cropping station, who is obnoxious, sexy, charismatic and full of himself. At least that's how he is portrayed when he first meets the beautiful Eden Cross. She doesn't make it easy on him, because her first impression of him wasn't a good one. Jackson has to work hard to get Eden's attention and it was really fun reading his different attempts while trying to get her to go out with him on a date. He can be very charming and funny. Will he be able to win her over? Does he have what it takes? This story was funny, romantic, mildly dramatic, sad at times, but all in all it was beautiful and gratifying. This was my first novel by Kasey Millstead and I'm looking forward to reading the sequel "Sky Cowboy" which portrays the lives of Jeremy (Jackson's twin) and Ava.
