Review: Down Home Country Goodness
Rating: 5 out of 5

I'm a country girl. Raised in my cowboy boots & hat from as early as I can remember. The majority of my elementary school photos were taken in that classic hat, belt buckle & boots, not to leave out the standard pearl, snap-fronted western shirt & jeans. I spent my free time in the pasture, stroking a colt as it slept sprawled out in the field, soaking up the sun.  Even used a few as a pillow as the mare, thankfully, made a point of not stepping on me. I love horses. I love romance & I love intelligent women with a sense of humor. With all that in mind I gotta tell ya, this was a fantastic read. One of my complaints about this genre is many of the stories are too short & yet the price is an average of $10, ebook format. This book was not too short or too long, but at the same time the $1.99 barely seamed enough, considering the enjoyment I got out of the read. The story was good and well-told. The characters likable & believable. The dog names, hilarious & the creative stories behind them, even better. That explanation was just a short little snippet within the whole & yet added so much flare. The story focused more on the romance than the technical side of a ranch & yet what it did touch on in that area was accurate & enjoyable. So even you city folk can enjoy the read without making your head hurt trying to figure something out about ranching jargon, etc...Certainly worth your time & the small fee, even if the cost eventually increases. The love letter at the end was superbly written and gave the most excellent meaning to the title.
