ARC Review: Dylan (The Secret Life of Cowboys) [Mass Market Paperback]


I've finished "Dylan" the 2nd book in her Secret Life of Cowboys series by C.H. Admirand.

Product Description

THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULDN'T TAME ...

Dylan Garahan might be an old hand at lassoing fillies, but one night at the Lucky Star club, and he ends up wrapping his rope around someone that even his formidable strength can't tame. She's wily and beautiful... and she's his new boss. Dylan's had his heart broken before, but even an honest cowpoke has to wrestle with temptation...

UNTIL HE GOT HIS LASSO AROUND HER
...

Ronnie DelVecchio might be fresh off the bus from New Jersey, but she's a hard-edged businesswoman and has had her fill of men she can't trust - although she might consider getting off her high horse for that big, handsome rancher with a Texas drawl.

My Review:

Tyler the eldest Garahan has retired as a dancer at the Lucky Star Club and is living with Emily at the family ranch.  Dylan is the newest Garahan dancer strutting his stuff as a favor for Jolene Langley, Emily's cousin.

During his routine three women walk into the Club and one is blindfolded which he lassos in.  Her friends remove the blindfold and Dylan reels her into his arms.  Her name is Ronnie DelVecchio and she isn't too happy about it but once Dylan kisses her in front of everyone she finally gives into the kiss and enjoys it.  Dylan takes one look at the gorgeous brunette with the green eyes and knows he wants her.

Dylan is determined to make Ronnie his but even though she is attracted to Dylan she makes sure to deter his advances because of the family curse.  Also she has to deal with the vandalism of her shop The Guilty Pleasures.  The thing is Dylan is the Garahan brother who is going to rebuild her shop and she agrees to cook for them in exchange.

The banter between Ronnie and Dylan was very steamy so when they both finally give into their desires you know it will be hot and sexy.

Loved the setup of Jesse's back story and can't wait to for his book to be released.

3.5/5

Thanks Sourcebooks for sending me this ARC to review, greatly appreciated!
