I really enjoyed Cowboy in my pocket. I generally don't favor western settings and this one has a lot of scenes working on the ranch and in the fields, but I really gobbled it up.It was a very standard and implausible plotline. NY romance writer has to visit a dude ranch to bring some realism back to her work. She has a car accident hits her head and loses her memory. There's some confusion and she ends up in a marriage of convenience so the rancher's Grandmother won't give the ranch away to a charity. Of course, they fall in love. Reads like a 70's Harlequin, doesn't it?However, the characters were likable, there was some chemistry between them all, the writing flowed well and the characters all actually worked and we read about them in action. How accurate it is, I don't know, but it all seemed realistic.Sometimes the tried and true pushes all the right buttons and Cowboy in my Pocket did for me. I even laughed out loud a couple of times (high praise indeed).I received a copy from Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion.
