All I Want for Christmas Is a Cowboy by Jessica Clare

All I Want for Christmas Is a Cowboy (Wyoming Cowboy, #1)

by Jessica Clare

Christmas arrives early when a fateful encounter leads two strangers to unexpected love in this holiday romance from New York Times bestselling author Jessica Clare.

Christmas may be coming, but it's just another day at the ranch as far as Eli Pickett is concerned. Someone has to take care of the herd and that means no holiday vacation for him. But that's just the way he likes it--it’s not like he has a woman to spend time with anyways. Most women don't want the ranch life, or the surly, silent cowboy that comes with it. Fine with him. He'd rather have the quiet of a roaring fire and the company of his dogs.

Cassandra Horn is trying to make it to her parents' winter cabin in Wyoming before the blizzard hits. She desperately needs a vacation from the chaos of Manhattan...and her boss’s boyfriend, who is making her life miserable. But Cass never makes it to the cabin.

A raging snowstorm causes her car to crash, where she's found unconscious by Eli. When Cass wakes, she has no memories of who she is. Eli takes one look at Cass's big blue eyes and dark curls, and like a Christmas miracle, falls head over heels in love. But while the attraction is mutual, can she give her heart to this cowboy if she’s not sure it’s hers to give?

New Yorker, Cassandra Horn is looking to escape her employers touchy-feely, cannot take the hint, celebrity boyfriend.  She has tried telling her boss who laughs it off. So with her boss out of the country, she decides a few weeks alone at her folks Wyoming cabin is exactly what she needs.

Rancher, Eli Pickett understands that animals don’t stop eating over the holidays and volunteers to be the only hand to stay behind during the holiday. He is looking forward to the quiet time alone and seeing to the animals care. 

But a snowstorm and a tree have other ideas. Poor Cass crashes her car and ends up with amnesia. Lucky, Eli and his dog find her. With a blizzard bearing down on them, he takes her to his ranch. The tale that unfolds was sweet, sexy and offered moments of humor and cute puppies!

Clare mixed in heat and character growth as these two lonely people find their slice of happy. It was wonderful watching Eli, who is such a loner, open-up and take a chance. When he ate Cass’s pancakes I found myself smitten with this sexy cowboy. A little humor, stolen kisses and holiday magic await you. 

From ranch life to trimming the tree All I Want for Christmas is a Cowboy, delivered a fun, predictable holiday romance that had all the elements to make you smiling this holiday season. This review was originally posted at Caffeinated Reviewer
