One Night with a Cowboy, Elizabeth OttoReview from Jeannie Zelos book reviewsI was looking forward to this, it sounded promising. However though it was a good read, it wasn't a great one for me. I enjoyed it but I wasn't really moved emotionally, and wasn't that bothered about what actually happened to the characters. Tucker seems a bit of a jerk to be honest, I know he had a history that made him behave that way but for much of the time he seemed to me to be acting like a sulky teenager instead of a grown man. Then there's Sophie – Fifi as he calls her! She was sweet, wanting to help her mum, very family orientated but had a love hate relationship with her sister. Families can be like that – we love them, just can't live with them so I understood that part well. I liked the way she stood up for herself, I hate those simpering twee heroines that often fall into this genre.Overall an OK read, no deep drama or emotion, and not one I’d read again but a sweet, uncomplicated romance with a HEA. Its very fairly priced at 1.21 for 147 pages, and for those wanting an easy, quick, romantic read its perfect.Stars: three.
