Momentum (goodreads.com)By: Cassandra Carr (author website)eBook, 176 pages per KindlePublished December 28th 2012 by Ellora's CaveASIN: B00AU1TVYASource: Publisher, for the purpose of an honest reviewGenre: Erotic RomanceSeries: Buckin' Bull Riders, book #3Best read in order: no, each works as a stand-aloneStars: 5Flames: 4I've thoroughly enjoyed each book in this series, but there was just something about Marco that had me loving him from the very beginning. I'm sure it had something to do with him literally chasing down a woman he barely got a glimpse of just to meet her. He saw what he wanted and he went after it. Marco is so charismatic and sweet. He oozes charm and is a helpless flirt. I just loved reading him. The protectiveness that he immediately felt for Natalie showed his caring side.Natalie is a better woman that I. I can assure you that if a wealthy, sexy, rich, gorgeous, cowboy wanted to take care of me financially I'd let him and not question it. Natalie wants to make her own way in life. She has a goal and she will use what little she has to get it. She's a good person who is not going to take advantage of someone. She is also independent enough not to let the playboy cowboy turn her into a kept woman.Marco and Natalie do not have a smooth go at their new relationship. Them not seeing eye to eye on certain things and Natalie seeing Marco's caring protectiveness as overbearing and domineering makes for some great tension. Great tension leads to amazingly explosive sex scenes in my opinion. Oh this is one hot book.Marco and Natalie both have some turmoil going on in their personal lives where their family is concerned. The vastly different conflicts have them clashing at times. The issues they are dealing with while very similar in nature are also very different. I enjoyed the contrast there. It gave Marco and Natalie some intense tension. I also liked the way things worked out with the family problems. It was not the perfect, everything for the best, we are all happy now solution I figured was coming. The resolution that happened seemed much more real world appropriate though.Each book in the Buckin' Bull Riders works as a stand-alone. The couples from the past books have small roles. If you have not read their books reading them in the current book will just make you want to go back and read the previous books.
