3.5 StarsI swear the more I read about cowboy's the more I want to become a buckle bunny just for one night and a wild ride!The second book is Cassandra Carr's Buckin' Bull Riders series follows on the heels of Impact. In this story we get up close and personal with the "King of Rodeo" Brady Parrish. He is tasked with a promotional gig for his sponsors on the rodeo tour and is paired up with Leah Fitzpatrick, the "Ice Queen" of figure skating.Leah is reaching the tail end of her figure skating career. An Olympic gold medalist, holding national and world titles, she is less than thrilled when told to go on a rodeo tour to help rekindle her career after an ankle injury. It is bad enough that she has the reputation of being cold both on and off the ice, but now having to flaunt the nickname she hates, she is ready to get her promo photo shoot over with. After donning the stereotypical skating dress that she wouldn't be caught dead in on the ice, she meets the man she will be paired with for the next few weeks.Brady Parrish was more than happy to help out with the new promo tour for the rodeo. Donning his dusty red chaps and a smile, he saddles right up to Leah Fitzpatrick for their photo shoot. When he is asked to go bare chested and get a little sexy with Leah for some of the pictures, he is more than happy to do so and realizes that Leah is more interested than she leads on.I really enjoyed this book and love the idea of the bull rider series. Something about a man that can hold his own on a bucking bull makes a woman think of that man bucking her in bed. Can we say steamy?Brady is all charm and uses it every moment he can to sweet talk Leah into seeing what true passion is about rather than routine sex from those uptight suits she is used to. When she gets a taste of his wild side, she realizes what she has been missing but is not sure they could ever make it work with both of them having traveling careers.Brady is not sure how to handle his feelings for Leah. He has seen her softer side and knows that her nickname does not exemplify her one bit. Having a difficult past, she just doesn't know how to handle affection and he wants to show her how great it can be to trust someone and let them love you. He pushes her limits and shows her how amazing things can be, but when the time comes to end the tour, the question of what will happen next causes heart aches, tears, and broken bones to say the least.Cassandra Carr has created a fun and flirty series that will leave you smiling and wanting more. Her cowboys are nothing less than sexy and charming and I love how determined they are once they realize they are head over heals. This is a quick and sexy rodeo that you won't want to miss.
