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

I've finished "Jesse" the 3rd book in The Secret Life of Cowboys trilogy by C.H. Admirand.

Product Description

Loneliness Will Take a Man Places ...

Fiercely protective of her little girl, Danielle isn't about to let Jesse get anywhere close enough to hurt either of them, no matter how much longing she sees in his eyes ...

My Review:

Jesse Garahan is the youngest of three brothers and he is recovering from a recent heartbreak.  He believed he was in love but his obsession was only interested in him as a friend.  He is feeling a little jealous of his brother's women's and what they are experiencing at the Circle G.

One day when he is returning home he spots a car stalled on the side of the road.  Danielle Brockway with her adorable pink cowgirl daughter Lucy are in trouble.  Jesse realizes that Danielle is going to do a big NO-NO by removing her radiator cap from a overheated car.  Jesse takes matters into his own hands and is becomes Lucy's cowboy hero.

Danielle is recently divorced and has moved with Lucy to live with her Uncle Jimmy in Pleasure.  He owns a diner and is known to make the best pies in Pleasure.  Both Danielle and Lucy were abandoned by her cowboy ex-husband who only thinks of himself and didn't want to be saddled with a wife and daughter.

Jesse is instantly attracted to the little blond but he's afraid to give his heart after being left heartbroken.  As Jesse gets to know Danielle and Lucy more he realizes she is the one for him and stops denying how he feels.

Danielle is afraid to get involved with another cowboy but she sees the way he treats Lucy and how devoted he is to his brothers and their wives.

I highly recommend this book if you like a sweet cowboy romance with a likeable hero and heroine and an adorable cowgirl who will melt your heart.
