I really enjoyed reading this book about Brandon Hollister & Emily and his sister Ally & her son Liam. Brandon is an actor & a waiter and six years ago he put his career on hold when his father died and left fourteen year old Ally all alone. He came home to care for his sister, his father's life insurance paid for his funeral but nothing else, the mortgage payments were too much so he sold the family home and purchased a small three bedroom ranch with an apartment above the garage. Brandon did most of the repairs himself, and turned the apartment over the garage into a real bachelor pad, Ally said it was more ski lodge worthy with all the wood paneling on the walls, this left the main house for his sister. When Ally turned fifteen she ran away for a week, Brandon searched day and night for her, till he finally found her at a friends house all messed up. Three months later she found out she was pregnant, she told her boyfriend and he up and left never to be seen again, she kept the baby and Brandon helped her raise him. Liam is a bright energetic five year old little boy, who loves his mom and uncle Brandon very much. Brandon meets Emily the vet at the restaurant Eduardo's where he works as a waiter, however the day she comes in he's just come back from a movie interview in which he plays the side kick for Houston Savage a cowboy in the old west. So he was dressed as a cowboy complete with the chaps and spurs on his boots. While he was talking to the two other waitresses he worked with Emily catches his eye, she's dropped dead gorgeous, he asked the girl's who the lady with the brunette hair over at table 10 neither girl had ever seen her before. Excuse me ladies I'll be right back, and is sauntered off to speak to Emily and her friend Jackie. Read this book because it will make you laugh & cry. It's heart warming, and down to earth. It's about a young women who has sworn off cowboys because they bring nothing but heartache and grief. And about a guy play acting as a cowboy who captures the heart of the women, and some how it's gotten so out of hand she has no idea he isn't a real cowboy. It's a very amusing story and will make you smile and laugh through out the whole book, enjoy reading it.
