Review: My first Western romance!
Rating: 5 out of 5

When Dusty, the independent young rancher, re-enter's Zach McCray's life, the fireworks fly! I really enjoyed this book very much, which surprised me a bit since I was reading out of genre. Ivy League Cowboy is my first Western romance and one of only a few steamy books in the past many years. But I was hooked from the start by the intriguing setup as the two had known one another as children. I could not put the book down but read it straight through. I had to know what was the dark secret Dusty carried that prevented her from just staying with Zach, an Ivy League graduate, but still a cowboy at heart. Their romance develops at a very nice pace - they don't just leap into wild passionate sex, but there is plenty of that by the close of the book!Also, can I just say too how much I enjoyed all the other characters in the novel?? I am so glad to hear that this is a series with the rest of the brothers, but Hardt introduces so many more wonderful men and sneaky women (who I would like to see turn wonderful and get their own books as well!). I hope she gives everybody their chance to shine - especially Dusty's brother! I would love to see the McCray's mom get her own second chance at romance as well. I just fell in love with the whole cast of characters. I certainly recommend spending some time with an Ivy League Cowboy!!
