Hired by the Cowboy (Western Weddings)

by Donna Alward

Alexis Grayson is "good" at looking after herself-- she's been doing it all her life. So what if she's alone and pregnant? She'll cope! But gorgeous cowboy Connor Madsen seems determined to take care of her. And Alexis can help him-- he needs a temporary wife; she needs somewhere to live until the baby's born. A short-term marriage will solve all their difficulties!

As Alexis gets to know the courageous, honorable Connor, she realizes that she might have made the biggest mistake of her life. Because all this wife-for-hire wants is a marriage for real!

Somewhere between 2.5 and 3 stars.
This book just never got me to feel anything, aside for slightly frustration. It kept going round and round on itself, with both main characters clearly showing each other attraction and expressing a desire for more, and yet every time interpreting the other's reaction as a validation that they weren't feeling the same. Urg.
Also, aside for Alex, Connor and the Grandma, none of the other character were establish. The most we get of anyone else in the story is "his friend Mike". There were zero interaction with anyone outside the immediate family, even on outings. It was slightly surreal.
