COLORADO COWBOY by Sara Richardson is a great story! I couldn't put it down! Dev and Charity both had lots of baggage to overcome. Together they could be there for each other and were stronger for it! Both of them were also exactly what Bodie needed in his life! Definitely give 🌟's from me!

This book is part of a series but I have not read this author or the series before. It can stand alone as well. It stars Charity, a barrel racer in the rodeo who lives and trains in Colorado. Dev is the cop in town and he has a THING for C but she avoids romance so doesn't give him the time of day even if they share friends.

Until Charity's sister dumps her nephew on her and her nephew has some hijinks that Dev tries to help with. I enjoyed both characters but it is more about C and her nephew Bowie and the drama with the sister and less about romance. i would have liked more romance in the story but even then it is well written and an enjoyable story.

A touching and emotional continuation of a series I have thoroughly enjoyed. There are so many moments that will leave you with your heart breaking, then turn around and make you smile. The characters have realistic depth and personality, sweeping you up in their wants, desires, and at times insecurities. This is one story that difficult to put down once you start reading.

Great opening line.

She's kind of cynical.

Ew. Pretty sure kids still look like kids. How drunk is this guy?

I could have told her she'd end up taking care of Bodie.

It's not a false accusation if there are pictures of her sister committing a robbery.

Haha, poor Vera!

Yikes, triplets. People have trouble with one baby at a time.

Jett could stand to use some male attention

Sheesh, Gracie, being a good person is more important than riding lessons.

I actually like Charity's mom.

It's not Dev's fault that Melody was an accomplice!

I love the family unit they have built.
