A Cowboy for Keeps (Colorado Cowboys Book #1) | Jody Hedlund
4 posts | 4 read
Greta Nilsson's trip west to save her ailing little sister, Astrid, could not have gone more wrong. First, bandits hold up her stagecoach, stealing all her money. Then, upon arriving in Fairplay, Colorado, she learns the man she was betrothed to as a mail-order bride has died. Homeless, penniless, and jobless, Greta and her sister are worse off than when they started. Wyatt McQuaid is struggling to get his new ranch up and running and is in town to purchase cattle when the mayor proposes the most unlikely of bargains. He'll invest in a herd of cattle for Wyatt's ranch if Wyatt agrees to help the town become more respectable by marrying and starting a family. And the mayor, who has promised to try to help Greta, has just the candidate in mind for Wyatt to marry.

I adore Wyatt. I love Greta also. I like the author‘s writing, and her descriptions of the beauty and desolation of the land is evocative. But it‘s the slow build up of the friendship to love between Wyatt and Greta that is the heart of the story. I can‘t wait to find the next book in the series.

Greta was a great worker, she just let her little sister get by with too much. I felt like Astrid was just a little brat. The characters were a little too understanding. The story-line had great potential but just never clicked with me.
DISCLAIMER: There was a lot of marriage related scenes. The passion never got specific but it was border-line.

I received this book from the publisher for my honest review.

With her trademark style and attention to detail, the author brings the mining town of Fairway in 1861 Colorado Territory to life. Greta and Wyatt, though riddled with insecurities, learn that life is better when facing it together. I received a copy of the book from Bethany House Publishers and was comments are solely my own.
