This story is filled with suspense, twists, betrayal, love, and family. The wonderful characters are well-developed and believable. This is my first book from this author, but it will not be my last.

This book was so entertaining. I was drawn into the story from the beginning and was involved until the end. The characters were complex and interesting. I found the story to be well paced and engrossing throughout the whole book. I was invested in the couple throughout the book and felt all the emotions through both the highs and lows of the story. If you want an entertaining and well written book this is it for you.

I loved reading A cowboy kind of love. The romance and emotions are intense, the chemistry hot, the suspense kept you glued. I really didn’t see the twist coming and the author has done a superb job of keeping me hooked.
I really loved the bond between the friends and can’t wait for the next book.

This was another great release from Donna Grant!

It was an exciting and lovely romantic read and I adore this series

The book was written to please the avid reader and I found it to be an addictive story, so much so that I read it in an afternoon.

The characterisation was wonderful, the characters worked really well together and had some excellent interaction too.

It is 5 stars from me for this one, an excellent story – very highly recommended!

A Cowboy Kind Of Love by Donna Grant – 4 Stars!

I loved this book – shorter than some – Second Chance Romance – Mystery – Suspense – Shoot Outs – oh my! Little racy with the sex scenes for anyone who doesn’t like that kind of thing, I don’t mind. One can dream right? Anyway, enjoyed the book. Had some interesting twists.

I received this book free through NetGalley.com. My words and opinions are my own freely given. #ACowboyKindofLove #NetGalley #DonnaGrant

“A captivating romance novel with a sexy cowboy making this perfect for anyone who loves a steamy romantic read.”—Fresh Fiction on My Favorite Cowboy

This is a very exciting suspense story. There's lots of action and surprises. Author Donna Grant has done a superb job of ratcheting up the tension as the storyline progresses. Definitely an edge-of-your-seat experience. I liked all the characters, especially the two main characters, Taryn Hillman and Jace Wilder. It was great getting to revisit the characters from the previous books in the Heart of Texas series.

I received an ARC in exchange for a honest review.

A Cowboy Kind of Love (Heart of Texas #6) by Donna Grant

First of all I loved this series... and this book was fantastic. It is Jace and Taryn's story and what a story it is .. they are in love then she disappears and then appears years later with a horrid secret. This book has angst, terror, evil, violence, bad guys, good guy, also old friends who always stand by each other, laughter, tears happy and sad, plenty of steam to get us to a very HEA.

Reasons I enjoyed this book:
Witty Great world building Romantic Scary Tragic Wonderful characters Tear-jerker Page-turner Entertaining Unpredictable Haunting Twisted Steamy Action-packed Easy-to-read Happily Ever After

Oh my, see...this right here? This is why I love a good cowboy read! A Cowboy Kind Of Love is a phenomenal contemporary cowboy romance. Jace is ex-military with the PTSD to prove it. Now he wonders if he's going crazy because he imagines seeing his girlfriend that disappeared years ago. Taryn's family was basically kidnapped and moved out of town and relocated because of her father's drug problem. Jace and Taryn's story is loaded with drama, humor, spice, action and suspense. This book grabbed me and didn't let go until the end. I loved it and look forward to my next book by Donna Grant. A Cowboy Kind of Love is book 6 of the Heart of Texas Series but can easily 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.

I have been provided with a review copy of A Cowboy Kind of Love from NetGalley for an impartial review. This is the sixth book in the Heart of Texas series and I just loved getting to reenter this amazing world. This book was just so easy to get lost in. I completely got lost in the story and I just loved getting to see these new characters come together. I just absolutely love this story and I just didn’t want to put it down. I can’t wait to see what’s next from this author.

Fast paced, exciting with just a touch of steam make the perfect combination page turner. This series is fantastic Donna.

I have enjoyed all the stories in the Heart of Texas series that I have read; this one is no exception. This is Jace and Taryn's story and of course there are dire circumstances that require all the "boys" and their significant others to rally together and help. I found this story just as intense/edge of my seat/nail biting; as pervious ones where one or both of the main characters are in some kind of trouble.

Taryn disappeared years ago with just a short-text to Jace saying it was over and then there was no trace of her or her family. Jace doesn't know how to get over Taryn and move-on as they all say. His buddy drags him home from the bar where he drank himself into oblivion in the hopes that he would stop thinking about Taryn and all the might have beens had she not left. What Jace finds is his door unlocked and a shadow in his kitchen that he believes to be Taryn. Then he figures that it's all just a figment of his drunken imagination.

Taryn's in deep trouble and at a loss as to how to get out of it. Wherever she turns no one is willing to help her. So, as a last resort, she goes to the one person that she knows would help her, no matter what: Jace Wilder. Although, she really doesn't want to drag him into her deadly predicament; it's all to get her and her sister away from the person holding them; alive.

This is a well written story with great characters both good and bad. The story flows well and kept me reading to see what would happen next. There are some sex scenes in the book and it has drug dealers/lords, murders, law enforcement officers/agents, and intrigue. A very enjoyable, quick read.

A Cowboy Kind of Love by Donna Grant is the next novel in her Heart of Texas Series. Jace Wilder is the next bachelor cowboy to be searching for his long lost love in this series and when he thinks he sees her in his house one night, he's pretty sure it was the alcohol that made her appear and that she wasn't really there. But was she?

In the meantime, Taryn had returned to her hometown, where her one true love lived, hoping to find help to save herself and her sister. They had gotten involved in a notorious drug ring and she was given on last assignment after which she was told she and her sister could walk away and have their lives back. But was that really going to happen? When Jace finds out that Taryn really was not an illusion and pulls out all stops to help her, but she's in much deeper than he could have ever imagined so he enlists the help of all of his friends to bring down the syndicate that she's been enslaved by...but will they be successful?

A novel that has you sitting on the edge of your seat until the end! Thank you to the author, St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

OH MY GOSH, I loved this book!!!! This story was amazing with so many twists that I was getting tangled up in my nerves trying to figure out what was going to happen & hoping that Jace & Taryn & all of Jace’s friends made it out of everything okay. This series has had some fascinating themes & the way author Donna Grant tells the stories keeps you on the edge of your seat. This one definitely had a big surprise in it when we actually find out who’s been pulling the strings on Taryn’s life since the fateful night her entire family is kidnapped. Asking for help from Jace is the best decision Taryn makes as Jace & his friends help her get her freedom back from her captors. This book had me on the edge of my seat the entire time, even as Jace & Taryn reunited emotionally & physically as their chemistry was burn the pages hot. Definitely recommend. Thank you to the publisher & Net Galley for allowing me to read this book for an honest review.

I have read several of Donna Grant's books in this series, so I was prepared for the hot ex-special-forces cowboys coming to the rescue of someone in a tough place. What I was not prepared for but loved was the intensity of this story! Jace has been torn up for the past 5 years or so since Taryn left town one night with her family and no explanation, just as Jace was going to propose. When she shows up again at his door is when the story takes off. I won't say any more other than I was so drawn in that I had to take several deep breaths when the story was done because I think I was holding my breath a good portion of the time I was reading. Excellent, excellent read!

Jace is a wounded cowboy. Not on the outside but his heart has been broken since Taryn disappeared out of his life. He's tried to move on but no-one seems to be able to crack through his shell. He is seeing her everywhere in their town but then realises that she is actually back! He wants another chance to get right whatever went wrong last time but Taryn may have brought more than herself back to town.

Taryn had no option to flee, her life was in danger and she wasn't going to bring Jace into her mess.
He would have ridden through hell for her and she didn't want him to get hurt. She ran out of options and had to come home. He may be the perfect solution to her problems now. His military career has given him experience and strategies that she could sure use now. But can they just partner up and then part again once the danger is gone or is this cowboy determined to rope this woman forever?

Plenty of twists and turns and a taut storyline. The characters are engaging and charismatic. The love between them still as intense now as it was the first time around, so that should stand them in good stead for their HEA. Completely lost myself in cowboy country!

There is so much I want to say about this story but can’t because it would all be spoilers. There is intrigue, there is friendship – the kind where friends stand in front of you to take a bullet for you, and there is an enduring love that won’t quit – no matter how many years they have been apart.

A Cowboy Kind of Love is a standalone but we’ve met Jace and his friends in previous books. However, this is truly Jace’s story. Most of the “boys” are former government operatives so we are talking pretty clandestine ops. Taryn is an old girlfriend of Jace’s who has disappeared for five long years. She is living thru the middle of a many-year nightmare of a life.

It will take all Jace has, along with all his friends and their families, to get Taryn out of her life nightmare but it is an amazing story that will take your breath away. Love, love, love Jace! He is perfect for Taryn.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Another hit by Donna Grant. Can't wait to read the next book.

I loved this story. It was engaging from the beginning to the end. I couldn't put it down, I kept reading until the very end. This romantic suspense novel has it all love, family, friendship, action, and second chances. The story flowed really well and the loved the characters. This novel is part of a series but can be read as a stand alone. I would recommend this book. I received this book from NetGalley for my honest opinion.

First time reading any books in this series but I will definitely be reading more!! I love second chance romances and this had plenty of heat and action to go with it.

I adore Donna Grant & her brilliant mind that creates amazing characters & stories. This was a gifted read by Netgalley but I give my honest review. This is not what you expect this book to be about if you only see the book jacket and haven't read her previous books in this series. This is Jace and Taryn 's romantic suspense story. In this book you get second chance romance, drama, Good guys vs bad, suspense, twists and turns but what you don't get is really a cowboy feel. You understand the cowboy reference only if you've read the other books otherwise you'll be confused. Carry over characters mean that this book is best enjoyed reading in order, it's not a must but I feel you'll understand these friends dynamics and true feel of family, love, loyalty and friendship!

Complementary copy given for honest review and opinion from NetGalley. Action and romance makes this the perfect book for my snowed in day. I enjoyed hearing from some characters that I have grown fond of in this series. Donna Grant delivered again!

Jace is every woman’s dream. Except he only wants Taryn, who gutted him when she left him 5 years ago without any explanation. She’s been through hell and back when she reappears in his life. He demands answers. I love this series. Strong men with covert ops backgrounds means action packed reading. I loved how intense Jace was in his feelings for Taryn. I’m a fool for reading that kind of emotion. And it was satisfying to read how good triumphs over evil. I’m a sucker for those stories too. The camaraderie among the crew of friends is great to read about. I’m Amy wait to read Ryan’s story, which hopefully is next.

4-5 stars! Jace and Taryn will take you for a suspense ridden romance in this latest book by Donna Grant. I’ll share that this is the sixth book in this Heart of Texas series but you don’t need to read the rest before this one. Other characters/couples are included though so you can tell they were in previous stories and sometimes I glossed over those parts as I haven’t read those books yet but plan to in the near future.

This story is told in dual POV’s which I personally love and you really get more background and emotion from the two characters. A Cowboy Kind Of Love read almost like an action packed movie to me after it got going. The beginning was a little vague or possibly it was for me since I hadn’t read the prior books but I didn’t know the extent of what Jace and Taryn had gone through when they were younger. This is a second chance romance too and the big question originally was what happened for Taryn to leave like she did. The author gets into this but then there’s some plot twists (one really unexpected) that will keep you turning the pages.

While Jace Is referred to as the cowboy in this book, I wouldn’t say it’s your traditional cowboy with a ranch book. Jace’s personality though is definitely your protective and strong hero type which was a good pairing for Taryn who was a strong woman that had endured a lot but needed help. I read this book in almost one sitting and on top of enjoying the suspense, I also liked the romance that flared between these two characters.

Looking forward to reading the rest of the series and recommend this book for those that enjoy romance with some suspense action.

A big thank you to Net Galley and St. Martin’s Press for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

The wonderful characters and the good storyline was a very enjoyable read that kept me turning the pages until the very last page!

This is another good book in her series. I love it when there are kind, sensitive guys who are also tough military types. It was an interesting story and I like all the characters in the book.

Starting right out of the gate with excitement. I was drawn in with the first sentence. There was so much action from beginning to end. I was surprised at several turns. I was in tears, but most of all I was so pleased with everything. The romance between Jace and Taryn could not be denied. Book provided by NetGalley.

Great book! This book had plenty of action!! It had intrigue, suspense, and plenty of heart pounding moments! Lots of twists and turns that I did not expect!! I highly recommend reading this one! Its well worth the read! Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

Donna Grant is an author I never miss! I have enjoyed every Heart of Texas book and Jace and Taryn’s story in “A Cowboy Kind of Love” was as good as all the others! Taryn left Jace years ago without explanation. He has never gotten over her. Now she is back and in trouble. Thrills, suspense, romance and surprises. Everything you need to enjoy a nice weekend read.

Good love story with a little bit of a thriller thrown in. Jace needs to overcome his lost love until that love returns needing his help. Taryn is in danger and needs help to save her sister. Jace recruits the help of his friends to solve Taryn's problem. The ending has a surprise twist.

I love this series and the great family of characters! Jace is the book I looked forward to and was thoroughly entertained with suspense, drama and romance.

Jace and Taryn were once head over heels in love and then Taryn just vanished. Jace went on a downward spiral of boozing and misery for years. Thankfully, Jace does get a rational reason for Taryn abandoning him, but boy what drove her away was horrendous and still a threat to them all.

Taryn's drug dealing dad caused her to run. She was drug down a road of despair and desperation and is in dire need of help from Jace and his army of friends, help Taryn isn't readily willing to accept for fear of hurting others. Jace's friends aren't the type to back down from a fight or to help one of their own, and all hands are on deck to help Taryn and Jace.

Fast paced and action packed, the gang is on the job to take down the drug lord, but the with twists and turns are mind boggling!

Loved this book and this series! Highly recommend!

What can I say about this book...loved and loved. I welcomed the opportunity to read book six in this series., I've become a fan of Donna Grant after reading books 4 & 5 ,and A Cowboy Kind of Love did not disappoint. The story was enjoyable and well-written. It had just enough suspense, romance, and intimacy that I look forward to reading in my romantic novels. Ms. Grant did a wonderful job of keeping my interest from start to finish. A very nice comfy read on my snowed-in day.

Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for this digital ARC in exchange for my fair and honest review.

I really enjoyed this book! Love, family, action, second chances...what's not to love?

The story flowed really well and the characters clicked. Jace and Taryn were so good together - there were problems, but they didn't drag the book down - they listened, they didn't try for revenge, they were true to themselves and each other.

The ending...I thought I knew where this was going, but OMG, wow!!!!

Great book, great storyline, great characters, great writing - all-around a wonderful read.

I requested to read and review this book from St. Martin's Publishing Company. Donna Grace has done it again with a winner! The setting is Texas ranch country. You won't want to put this book down. It will keep you on the edge of your seat. An intense story of love, live, betrayal and family. Can a past mistake be made better with love or is the pain to much. Jace is a stubborn head strong man. Taryn is devoted but is it to the right person? Do you know who you can trust? This book is for a mature reader. And can be read anywhere.

Great storyline
I liked this story, it has love, action and great characters.
All the characters is developed in to different personalities
I especially liked that the story is more about the situation itself than packed with love scenes.
The author had me curious about a couple of characters and if they would have a happy ending
Good dialogues and lots of them

And what an unexpected twist in the end.......

5 star for good entertainment

I cannot get enough of these characters! Each one is their own individual gold but together as a friend group it just a masterpiece.

There's nothing like the man who can take care of business unless you get a woman who is strong enough to do it as well. When you put love in the mix and friendships that mean the world it is something special.

Please write more of these and if it's not too much to ask, faster.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Oh my...I really love this series and as usual, this book captivated me right from the start. I simply couldn't put it down and kept reading till the very end...and---wow- Simply - wow. It kept me on my toes, I was glued to my reader, sometimes grinning or smiling goofily, being furious, tense and everything in between. What a ride this was, straight from panic and pain to bliss to happiness to devastation and....the turns and twists, the wonderful characters, meeting old friends who I loved in the other books and this finale? WOW.
Now I am looking forward to the next book in this series because I can't wait to see what fate (and our friends) have in store for Ryan and Brick!

LOVED this book! Romantic suspense at its best! This book started quickly with Jace, drunk and imagining seeing his ex everywhere, doesn't believe his eyes and thinks she's his imagination. Taryn, the ex that is trapped in a terrible position, wants to see Jace just one more time, but wants to catch him alone, so keeps hiding from his friends. When she finally shares her secret and why she disappeared, Jace and his friends don't hesitate to jump in to help.

This novel moved quickly with compelling characters and a group of former special forces military guys that have the skills necessary to step in to help. I found myself totally engrossed in the story and flipping pages just as quickly as possible to see what happened next.....then the author surprised me with a twist I never saw coming.

Fans of the genre will love this book and want to put it at the top of their TBR list. The author is on my must read authors' list.
