**I received a copy of a Cowboy Like You from Social Butterfly PR and Net Galley in exchange for a voluntary and honest review. My opinions and thoughts weren't solicited in any way.**
A Cowboy Like You by Donna Grant is the fourth book in her Heart of Texas series. I've read all of them as well as her Son's of Texas series too. But I have to tell you I loved this book, because of the TLC Ms. Grant took with the subject of a possessive and abusive boyfriend who doesn't understand the word NO. *There are triggers Domestic Abuse and stalker boyfriend.*
Danny Oldman is the Sheriff of Lone Star and longs for the family that all of his friends have but when he happens to be in the right place at the right time to rescue Skylar Long from her abusive boyfriend. They went to school and lost track after they graduated. Now Skylar needs his help when her ex-boyfriend follows her to Lone Star. But what she doesn't know is there is a lot more she didn't know about Matt Gaudet and his family who think money will solve everything or make it go away. It takes everyone from Clayton,Abby, Caleb, Audrey, Brice, Naomi and Cash to help dig up dirt and keep Skylar and Danny safe when Matt goes way beyond threats.

Danny had a crush on Skylar in school but never told her so when she ends up back in town years later, he's shocked. Her goal was to go to the big city and she did as soon as she could. But now Skylar's back running from her abusive ex and lucky for her, Danny is the local sheriff. They won't miss their chance this time if they can survive. Romantic suspense at its best.

Overall I enjoyed this book. The characters are good, although I would have liked some of the secondary characters were a little more developed. I did like the story. I had an unedited version so of course it needed to be edited.

ARC received for review
Another great book by Ms. Grant, not only can she do dragon kings but also cowboys. Danny is the local sheriff and he once loved Skylar. She left, but now she's back and trouble is following her. Danny is her knight with a shiny star, and lots of hot lovin'. Lots of help from the previous couples, as well as couple of yummy friends who I hope get their own books.

A Cowboy Like You was quite the read! Intense drama, great suspense, one charmingly sweet cowboy, and a stronger-than-she-knows heroine, there was so much happening, I couldn’t turn away! I haven’t read previous books in this series and had no trouble following who’s who. However, my curiosity was definitely engaged about recurring characters and I can’t wait to read this backlist!
Possible triggers-domestic abuse/stalking
I received an ARC from NetGalley and this is my honest review.

Absolutely enjoyed reading 'A Cowboy Like You'. It is not often that i read books where there is a cowboy, but the more i am doing so, the more i cannot wait to read more. Loved the two main characters, Danny and Skylar and their friends. Loved the ending, All in all, a well written book and one that i can highly recommend. Hope to read more books by Donna Grant.
My thanks to Netgalley and the Publishers for my copy. This is my honest review, which i have voluntarily given.

Donna Grant tells another great cowboy romance!!! Love this series! The characters and the story draw you in and you just can't put it down. I highly recommend.

Danny is an the overworked sheriff in his Texas hometown. While he is surrounded by close friends who treat him like family, he feels alone.
Skylar is running away from an abusive boyfriend and without even realizing it, has driven to the hometown she always vowed to escape. What she doesn’t realize is that her boyfriend has been tracking her and finds her there. Fortunately for her, the sheriff sees him threatening her and comes to her aid.
After arresting the abuser, Danny realizes that the woman he saved is Skylar, the one he has always felt got away. After pressing charges, it becomes clear that this won’t be an easy prosecution. Skylar’s ex hails from one of the wealthiest families in Texas, who will stop at nothing to protect their name. They also begin to find evidence that Skylar’s ex may have left a trail of abused women in his past, all of whom seem to have been paid off by his family.
Can Skylar stay safe while her ex stalks her, and can she and Danny find the happily ever after that they missed out on when they were younger?

Donna Grant has done it again. Not only has she written a shifters romance, she has written a
series about cowboys as well. Who doesn't love a romance series about cowboys. I know I do. I highly recommend anything she writes.

A Cowboy Like You is another wonderful book by Donna Grant. Danny Oldman has never forgotten the girl that got away, his high school crush whom he never asked out. Skylar Long never thought she would be in an abusive relationship, or that she would be running to her old hometown in order to escape her battering boyfriend. When Danny saves her from her abuser and realizes that she is his long unrequited love, he doesn't let the chance pass him by again. However, her circumstances have changed, and their attraction for one another puts them both in very imminent danger. As the clock ticks down, will Skylar's abuser finally get the upper hand and kill Danny? Don't miss this one!
Thank you to the author, St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for an ARC of this book for my honest opinion. Thoroughly enjoyed this novel, as I have Ms. Grant's others. Definitely one of my favorite authors!

Donna Grant is an auto-buy for me - and this book did NOT disappoint. I love these Texas boys and their ladies. I have loved Danny in every installment of this series so far. I was hoping he'd find someone and Donna Grant has provided!
Danny and Skylar knew each other in high school - but never connected on a romantic level, even though both clearly were interested in each other. For Danny, Skylar is definitely the one who got away. Now they are brought back together again in less than ideal circumstances. Skylar is trying to escape from an abusive relationship with a really really bad guy and her encounter with Danny seems guided by fate. Seeing this tightly knit group of people come together to help each other and especially Skylar was awesome.
There is a lot of action in this book and it keeps you on the edge of your seat. I already can't wait to read the next installment!
Love this book and this series!
I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review - and that is what you got!

This was a very sweet book. Low angst between the hero and heroine, and a sweet hero that was still a little bit alpha. This was a new to me author and I'll definitely be reading more of her work!

Danny and Sklar are wonderful characters from Donna Grant! Danny, small town sheriff who's lonely, but has a heart of pure gold. Skylar, small town girl who left for the big city to find her dreams.
Danny is in the right place at the right time to save Skylar from her abusive ex. She's always been the 'one who got away' for Danny, so when they reconnect, even under terrible circumstances, his protective instincts shine through as well as the true feelings he carries.
This story has drama, mystery, suspense, passion, friendship and unconditional love. The other characters in this book are caring, funny, witty, strong-minded, and would do anything for a friend in need.
This was a great book - I really enjoyed it. Thanks to NetGalley and Donna Grant for the opportunity to read such a wonderful story!

That's right! Everyone needs a cowboy like Danny!!
This was the best of all the series so far. I have read and loved each one of the stories in this series. I see many more characters about which to write. Every one of these characters is an entity unto himself. These are the friends I would want to have should the need arise. Abby and Clayton are the best. Ms. Grant, if you've based them on real people in your life, please send me in their direction. And Danny....what can you say about a hero such as him. He's a man who puts everyone else first. One can't even say he puts himself last because he doesn't even enter the equation. He's been active in each story and always a hero in my book.
I cannot wait for the next installment! If the next one's are as well-written, we have a long reading life ahead of us.
This book was gifted to me by NetGalley and the author in return for an honest review.

A COWBOY LIKE YOU by Donna Grant is an exciting small town romance. Danny the town sheriff and Skyler get a second chance, after Danny comes to her rescue! Skyler was the girl in high school Danny never thought he had a chance with. Skyler is trying to escape from her abuser. Lots of tense moments in this story. Danny's friends are solid and are always there when he needs back up!

LOVED this book! Danny is the positively swoon-worthy sheriff who has a job he loves, lots of good friends, but yet is lonely as he goes home to an empty house each night. Skylar is the girl he had a crush on all through school, but was afraid to ever ask out. Since she left the area right after high school, he never had the chance as an adult. A chance encounter puts them back together, even as Skylar is literally fighting for her life.
This is an engaging novel that tackles the tough subject of domestic violence and just how hard it can be for some women to escape it, We've all read the statistics showing that the most dangerous time for a woman is when she's leaving the abuser - the author tells the story of just how dangerous it can be through Skylar. Yes, the over the top money and resources her abuser has are over the top, however, she makes it feel relatable.
I love the men in this series and, while this is a stand alone novel, enjoyed the characters from the prior books making an appearance in this novel.
If you enjoy sexy cowboys and a strong woman who just needs a bit of help, you will love this book. The author is on my must read authors' list.

Poor guy. Christmas should be fun.
Should he go to rehab?
That took a scary turn.
Oh, you idiot. You are going to pay. A cop is next to you.
Good thing she at least took photographs.
This just keeps getting better and better.
You're not gullible, honey. The guy is just a lying sociopath. This can't be the first woman he's done this to.
Matt knew exactly what he was doing.
Someone dumped Jace?
Ha, they both have orange underwear on.
This guy is officially psycho. Poor Spencer.
Her parents are horrid.
She's still naive.
Buh-bye. Those guys were a discredit to the military.
New man, my butt.
Good ending. Orange again.

A Cowboy Like You is an excellent second chance romance by Donna Grant. Ms. Grant has provided readers with a well-written story filled with phenomenal characters. Danny is the county sheriff and finds himself sitting at the rest area having dinner alone. Skylar is on the run, she's escaped her abusive boyfriend and is determined to get away from him this time. Danny and Skylar's story is loaded with drama, humor, spice, action and suspense. I enjoyed reading A Cowboy Like You and look forward to reading more from Donna Grant in the future. A Cowboy Like You is book 4 of the Heart of Texas Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book that I received from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is a great series- very suspenseful, dramatic and romantic! I loved the East and Harpers and Sheriff Danny was great in those books. I was excited to read his story. He is a tough man, hard working and always detached from the others. He enjoys his friends and their family, but he thought he would settled with his own family by now. Memories of the one who got away are always present with Danny, so when Skylar arrives back in town Danny is not only shocked by on high alert as Skylar brings an ex to town who is dangerous and not about to let her go.
Skylar is on the run and for some reason her hometown is where she lands. Problem is she led her ex there and he is hell bent to get her home at whatever cost. Luckily, the local Sheriff rescues her from the clutches of the evil ex Matt. Sheriff Danny- that doesn't surprise Skylar as Danny was always quick to lend a hand and help others. She isn't even surprised that she is attracted to Danny since she always had a connection she felt to him.
The entire Harper/East and friends gang are soon brought into the action of Matt and his terrorizing of Skylar. This gang is the real deal when it comes to having their friends' backs.
As with the rest in this series, this was an an energetic, thought out plot that was made a great read. The drama, action and romance was the perfect amount.
Thanks NetGalley and St. Martins Press for the ARC.

I have enjoyed reading this series so far and this one more than meet my expectations.
Danny is a loner. Being a sheriff keeps him busy and he doesn't have time for a relationship. At least that's what he tells everyone.
Skylar is running away from an abusive relationship and finds herself back in her small town.
Danny has always carried a torch for Skylar, and imagine his surprise when Skylar turns out to be the one he rescues. Skylar remembers Danny for his kindness and his tendency to come to the rescue of those in need. She is not surprised when he takes her to a safe place. The warm reception she receives from his friends is unexpected, but deep down she knows that she can trust Danny. Her wealthy abusive ex is non too happy about the turn of events, and is not giving up so easily. After all he is filthy rich, and money can buy anything. Right?
Whilst trying to protect Skylar, Danny realises that his crush for her wasn't just that. Skylar has always admired Danny and soon her feelings for him are not what she thought. The problem is Matt, her ex will go to any length to win her back. How dare she walk out on him? He uses his wealth, deceit and violence to prove his point. Given his family's reputation and influence, can Danny and Skylar survive all the threats and danger that come their way?
Danny and Skylar are a good fit and fight for what they have together. Despite the turbulence, their love is unconditional. The characters from the previous books are more warmhearted than ever. The plot is well paced with suspense, action and romance.
I was kindly issued with an eARC from Netgalley and the views expressed are my personal opinion.
