Runaway Cowboy by Keira Cole is book two in the Bonifay Family series. I really enjoyed this story, it's probably one of the better cowboy romances I have read in a while. Rebecca Bonifay has no filter between her brain and her mouth. She is mouthy, sassy, and has a soft spot for broken animals. She runs a horse rescue and has had the magic touch when it comes to horses. Jesse English has passed his prime on the rodeo circuit but he isn't will give up so easily, it's the only thing he has with no formal education and spending the majority of his life as a ranch hand and rodeo cowboy he doesn't have much else he can do.Rebecca use to carry a lot of guilt around with her blaming herself for her parents death, but time passed and she has moved on from the guilt, she now spends her time with her rescue horses and helping with the family ranch. Jesse just needed one more win before he could ease up and stop riding, but what happened was the last thing he needed a sprained ankle and a concussion. Rebecca offers Jesse a place to rest and recuperate and help her around the ranch while her brother is off being a cowboy. Jesse and Rebecca have chemistry, and no matter how much Jesse tries to deny it and convince himself she's to young Rebecca has crawled under his skin and burrowed deep. Rebecca is on the prowl for just a meaningless fling to lose her virginity and Jesse, she thinks, is the perfect person after her sleazy boyfriend cheated on her.The ex-boyfriend was brought up enough that I thought it would have been more involved in the storyline but he wasn't he showed but only a couple of times then disappeared, I would have liked to see more conflict with him. The story was all about Jesse and Rebecca coming to terms with their relationship and trying not to fall in love with each other. I loved the ending it was a bittersweet ending that makes you cry.
