There is another McCord Sister Romance available from Christine Lynxwiler. I enjoyed Cowgirl at Heart more than the previous story titled The Reluctant Cowgirl. In fact the hero and heroine from The Reluctant Cowgirl are included in this book, but I was ready to smack them both up against a wall. Their behavior really irritated me – yes, both of them. I’m glad that this story focused on different people.
Andrew Stone and Elyse McCord are the main characters in Cowgirl at Heart. Elyse is a big dog-lover, groomer, and trainer. Andrew is a painter and journalist with karate skills. I liked them both. I liked her balance of independence and dependence. I enjoyed the way he challenged her and protected her. The adoption subplot/fear of her biological father is well written and the resolution is believable.
Here is the backcover copy:
Elyse McCord always plays it safe?a fact she blames on being the biological daughter of a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde. Even in the security of her adoptive family the McCords, the timid dog whisperer keeps her guard up with strangers. But when she discovers a dog being horribly mistreated, shy Elyse transforms into a mighty warrior and charges into a perilous situation, not only risking her life but also her heart
Reporter Andrew Stone has been fearless since the day his wife was shot and killed three years ago. He has one mission?use hid Texas Ranger upbringing to find her murderer and clear his own name of any involvement. When he sees a beautiful brunette in the hands of a pistol-welding maniac, he’s forced to abandon his covert surveillance and go to the rescue. The danger surrounding Andrew doesn’t scare him at all, but the awakening of his dormant heart terrifies him.
When painful pasts collide, the explosion is deafening. Can Andrew and Elyse pick up the pieces and go forward together? Or will they forever live with haunting memories, unable to forgive, unable to love?
