This is a beautiful, intense love story from an author who delivers fun, flirty, emotional love stories with a touch of kink. Nash and Megan have a lot of chemistry but Megan is determined to resist and not be just another notch on Nash's bedpost. As it turns out Nature has a different outcome in mind for them.....

Nash is so angry and full of angst as he tries hard to do his bit in keeping the family legacy afloat. Megan's father is one of his hottest trigger points. Imagine when he finds out that he's going to be a daddy and the one thing Megan needs from him is a cordial relationship with her family. Watching Nash struggle with managing his hatred and yet try to tame his fiery nature for love of Megan is an inspiration.
Megan is the true heart of the story. Hardworking and determined she has made a success of her life. She has always loved Nash and yet never admitted to this love aloud. She absolutely wants to end the ugliness of the family feud between her family and Nash's family so much that she is willing to walk away from Nash and his love.
I love how the story unfolds. The emotional highs and lows, the sexy times and deep friendships bring an emotional intensity which makes this a beautiful love story sure to keep readers engaged and enthralled with the story. I've definitely got Ms. Kennedy on my Auto Buy list.

This is a Hatfield and McCoy romance with a love story between two feuding families and all the stresses that that may cause on a relationship. Unfortunately, one of the characters that is holding the grudge is also the romantic interest. Leaving Megan, the female lead, torn between the love of her father and the love of her life.

I enjoyed this story but was taken aback by Megan's stance and that stance kept me from really loving it.

Kennedy provided a story with amazing chemistry, strong family ties and a heart-breaking situation that tied me, the reader, to this third installment of Kinky Spurs.

Nash and Megan at last. What a wonderful ride this was! After two books I knew that Nash was broken, and having a rough time but watching him come undone, and watching Megan fix his broken was fantastic.

This book was a great addition to the series. Nash's growth through the book was sweet and Megan's patience was adorable. Getting to see the brothers and their significant others was also great. The story line also had a little suspense and was a great.

Once I started reading I couldn't stop reading. This was a great book and would definitely recommend.

Steamy, forbidden and oh so sweet! The sexy temptation blossoming between Megan and Nash is electrifying on the pages from the start, and the sweetness when we see them together just makes it all even better. They're really adorable together! My first of the series, but it was easy to pick up on the rest of the family. Really enjoyed it!

Megan Harrison is living life on her terms now that she's starting to make a success of her bar Kinky Spurs. She's put long hours and everything she owns into the place, so she can't let up for a minute or it will slip through her fingers. One distraction that she doesn't seem to be able to kick is Nash Blackshaw.

Nash has been off-limits for all of her life because of a family feud lasting more than their lifetimes. She knows she shouldn't be interested, but what's a girl to do when the only one to push all of her buttons in just the right kinda way is bad boy Nash. When the one night they gave in to their passion leads to a shocking announcement, they have to figure out if they are all in regardless of the fireworks it's going to start between their families ... or all out.

4 1/2 stars. This is my favorite book in this series! I absolutely love Nash and Megan together!! This story is awesome and flows so nicely! There is a lot going on and not everything is easy for sure but it all gets worked out when everyone works together. The characters are written so well and are very easy to like and relate too. Nash is hella sexy and sweet as the day is long!
I was constantly swooning over him, between the way he treats Megan and those kittens and his way with horses, just wow.

I was so happy to be able to read this next book in this wonderful series! This book is so good and is now about the owner of the Broken Spurs. She is having some bad luck and needed something or some one to help her out of the rut. This was a great one that had me laughing through it and always completely understanding her. When life is kicking ya down it’s just not fun. I’m so happy there is another one coming in this great series! Great characters and stories and I highly recommend them!!

This fantastic book is third in the Kinky Spurs series and it features in Nash an Megan. I think out of the three Blackshaw brothers, Nash is the most damaged. He seem to immediately fall into step with Megan and it was heartwarming to watch. He needed that special someone to believe in him. I was shocked at the outcome of the investigation and the way it was dealt with.

I’m not sure if this is the last book in the series but if it is, it’s a really great way to end it. If by chance it’s not, because there are definitely other characters begging to get their stories told, then I can’t wait for more.

I really loved this book. It's the third book in the series and last Blackshaw brother to fall. This book brings the heat, but it also packs in plenty of heart and feels. Nash had me from the beginning, but what he does for the cat and kittens I would be rewarding him just like Megan does. That's the moment Nash became top book boyfriend material to me. I just loved the way he is with Megan it brings out a different side of him. He has many swoon worthy moments. I do feel for Megan though because she's stuck smack dab in the middle of a feuding families. There is the heat and heart in this book, but it also had me laughing quite often. There is also a little suspense that keeps the reader guessing. Nash is a little adrift with no certain path, but with the help of his family and Megan he may find the perfect path for his future. This book is definitively a must read!

Hard-Riding Cowboy by Stacey Kennedy is a scorching hot read. It is replete with an engaging plot, well-defined characters and a complicated romance. It is a fast-paced book, with two main characters that are instantly interesting, likable, and have a ton of off the charts chemistry. This is the third book from the series Kinky Spurs, and it can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Although bar owner Megan Harrison comes from wealth thanks to her family's ranching business, she has never taken any monetary assistance from her father. She works extremely hard to be financially independent while keeping her customers happy. Megan has crushed on rodeo superstar Nash Blackshaw for years, but the bad blood between her father and Nash's late father has prevented them from being any more than flirt buddies. Now that Nash's bull riding days are over, he is running the family ranch along with his two brothers. One night they finally give into their passion and have the best sex of their lives. It is unfortunate that the bad blood between their two families remains alive and well.

This is a well-written novel and I enjoyed how Ms. Kennedy evolved the romantic relationship between Megan and Nash. They have amazing chemistry and their sexy times are crazy hot. Megan's father is beyond despicable, and I had a difficult time understanding how she could continue to hold him in such high esteem. The bond between Nash and his brothers is inspiring. I always look forward to Ms. Kennedy's future releases.

This is the 3rd book in the series but can be read as a stand-alone. Megan owns the Kinky Spurs bar and Nash was a bull rider until he was severely injured. Their families have always been rivals but sparks still fly between these two. Sweet emotional read with plenty of drama and suspense. I really liked the characters as well as the story. A great read.

Hard-Riding Cowboy by Stacey Kennedy is book Three in the Kinky Spurs Series. This is the story of Nash Blackshaw and Megan Harrison. I have read the previous book, so for me it was a standalone book. Nash and Megan father have been revivals and so they have always been at odds with each other but their feelings for each other have been the opposite. When they can no longer fight their desire it leads to a unexpected consequence. Now they need to work together to get past their issues and find their happy ending. Always enjoy Ms. Kennedy's writing and will be looking for more book by her.

Hard Riding Cowboy is the third book in the Kinky Spurs series. I enjoyed reading about Nash and Megan the characters was well delevoped and had great chemistry between the two. It was a page turner and kept you on the edge of your seat. This story was full of hear, humor, intrigue and suspense.

Ms. Kennedy wasted no time shaking things up for Megan and Nash in the third installment of her Kinky Spurs series. I loved the push and pull between these two. They are fighting an uphill battle with their family’s lifelong feud between them. I was very glad to see Megan written as a strong and independent woman who knows how to stick up for herself. This story is filled with ups and downs, the animals steal the show and I was left with a huge stupid smile on my face well after I read the final word.
(4.25 stars)

First off, this book is smokin’ hot! Nash and Megan start us off with a crazy, sexy, encounter, and that is just the beginning. Every time, in lots of places, these two are burning up for each other!

But that isn’t all their story is, though it is definitely a super-duper bonus. There is quite a few buried emotions in these two. Megan has tried to ignore the feud between her family and Nash’s, for years. Even when it keeps exploding in her face, she doesn’t voice her concerns. Nash has pride and stubbornness to spare, but he also has buried his emotions and hurt deep. Megan is the only thing he is willing to change for, and while he is slow on the uptake, when he finally comes around, he does it amazingly big

Loved getting to see more of all the Blackshaw brothers and their partners as Ms. Kennedy does a fabulous job at tying this series up. Save A Horse Ride A Cowboy! Loved it!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

GAH!! Stacey Kennedy's stories are pure kindle crack for me. Megan and Nash were sexy, delicious and filled with the combustible chemistry we are used to from this author. To top it off, this was an amazing enemies to lovers type romance that had amazing spitfire banter. I could not get enough! 4 stars! ~Ratula

Hard-Riding Cowboy by Stacey Kennedy is the third book in the Kinky Spurs series and the first one I read in the series. This was a star-crossed lovers story about two people who were circling each other for years who had a lot of chemistry, but also a lot of history. Their fathers were bitter rivals and their families were thought to hate each other. And yet Megan Harrison and Nash Blackshaw could not stay away from each other.

Megan owns Kinky Spurs and though she wants nothing to do with her father’s business, she loves him. But she also wants Nash, but can she trust him? Nash is focused on running his family business, the Blackshaw Cattle Company’s Guest Ranch. He has so many responsibilities and yet he can’t get Megan out of his mind. These two shared explosive chemistry whenever they were together until they could no longer deny it.

Though Megan and Nash know they want each other, will forces around them tear them apart? Between things happening at his ranch, her business responsibilities and her father, do they even have a chance? Even so you cannot stop cheering hard for them! This was such a sweet and sexy story with a bit of drama, loved it.

3.5 Stars

I love the series and thought Hard-Riding cowboy was a good ending to the Blackshaw Brothers.

Megan and Nash danced around each other for years. If it wasn't for a little surprise they still might be sneaking off with the other.
Nash is dealing with a new chapter in his life. He's learned to embrace his new role. He was a bit of a bit head when dealing with Megan's family but it was coming from his heart.
Megan has always loved Nash. She's feisty and strong and willing to do things in her own. An he was also a bit of a conundrum to me. She showed her emotions easily but I didn't like some of her choices she made without thinking of the bigger picture.

Overall it was sweet and perfect at his couple.

I highly recommend that you read the first 2 books in this series before you start this one as the other 2 show how this relationship starts and other things about their families. Including some things that are spoken about in this book. Megan and Nash finally get their book! Megan is the owner of Kinky Spurs as well as the daughter of the man that the Blackshaw family is feuding with. They were both taught from the time of being children that they are supposed to hate each other. Even when they truly don't. Nash has been struggling since being hurt on the rodeo circuit and forced to retire. But one night with Megan changes everything. Not only for each of them individually but for their families as well.

I absolutely loved this one! I have been wanting Nash's story since book 1 and this one certainly didn't disappoint! Nash is still that strong yet sweet man that keeps his real thoughts to himself. To the point that you just want to know what makes him tick. Megan is the type of woman who will always be there for her friends and the people she loves no matter what, including her own family. I love them both! The fact that they are both adult enough to move beyond the things that have happened between their families and at least try to have a relationship is beyond beautiful. And what Nash does is beyond anything I expected!! It's a great story that shows what is truly important!!

I love a good cowboy read…and Hard-Riding Cowboy by Stacey Kennedy nailed it!

After their friend’s wedding, Megan Harrison and Nash Blackshaw enjoy a night together that changes the future of their feuding families. Megan and Nash are from two families with a history. In this forbidden romance/enemies to lovers story, there is romance, banter, playing hard to get, rancher life-style, hot sex, stubbornness, strong family bonds, heroism…yeah…this book has it all!

I loved the flow of this love story. I really enjoyed all the banter and the fun in it as well as the drama. The characters, storyline, setting and heat were wonderful and I really recommend reading this one!

5 stars from me!
