Review: Cowboys In Wonderland
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 05 5, 2014
After reading Texas Secrets, I thought I knew what I was purchasing with this boxed set; Western romances that were a bit oversexed. I was wrong, though this set is way too graphically sexual, it also is made worse by the author's determination to remove this series from anything resembling reality and infuse it with a California La-la land new age spirituality. In the first book the cowboy turns out to be a psychic who must rely on his strange visions to save the love of his life. Throw in a great-aunt who is a Mexican Witchy woman ala herb healer with pat answers for every situation. Book two's cowboy/actor is involved with a woman who has dreams of their previous incarnated lives and their involvement with a re-incarnated arch foe. The final book's cowboy's mystical powers involve levitating 6 inches above the ground, which never seems to come in handy, and being able to vibrate the molecules in his body so that he can walk through walls--unfortunately the ability is only with his body, not the clothes he wears, so he keeps entering rooms naked and embarrassed. Okay, the last book wasn't like that. I'm just expressing some frustration that these are more sexual, mystic nonsense, adventure books and have little to do with reality, thus far removed from the heartwarming romances I intended to read. If this silliness sounds good to you, read the series. I'm sorry I did.
