Another cowboy romance that is part of a series, My Favorite Cowboy is book 3. I didn't read the first 2 and although this story was okay, there was just too much familial angst for me to go back and read the first 2. The men were not very nice and treated women horribly, the woman had other issues and it became tedious reading about them constantly. It's also hard to believe that sleeping together solves their problems for the most part. This was a non-starter for me, just couldn't enjoy it.

I love Donna Grant. I think she is a great storyteller but these Cowboy romances are not for me. I love the complexity of the world's and characters she creates in her other series. This new series is a total wash for me. I like the idea of it but everything about it falls flat. I can't connect with the characters at all. They simply lack the presence of her other characters. I know other people will love these books but for me she set the bar so high with her Dark World series that I can't help but compare. It's not the idea...it's how they are written. I actually checked to see if they were by the "same" Donna Grant.

Ah man i love this series of books. I would be quite happy if the author wrote 2 a year for the next 20 years.

This book is about Caleb. He is the most sensitive of the family, both Abby and Brice are already married, but Caleb was traumatised by the past and so closes himself off to women and just has fun with no committment.

Until he meets Audrey.

She is called out to an old friends stables because he has horses that are very sick and Audrey is an equine veterenarian. Audrey suspects poisoning and David asks Caleb and Brice to look at his security system and help Audrey protect the horses until they figure out what is going on.

Both Caleb and Audrey fight their attraction to each other and things do not go smoothly or according to plan..

A really great read, cannot wait for the next one, there has to be one because i need to read more about Brice and Naomi's fertility struggles.

What a great story! This is the third installment and can be read as a standalone, however, it should really be read together as a full and complete story. I hope Ms. Grant continues on with stories for Jace and Cooper as they're a big part of the family. I did not want the story to end; what happens? Do Brice and Naomi adopt? Is the Rockin' H successful? How many more scrapes do they get I to? I will definitely be following Ms. Grant in the future.

This book was gifted to me by the author and the publisher in return for an honest review.

A love story set around a rancher, a vet and lots of horses, and I really liked it.

Caleb meets Aubrey when done horses are taken sick, they spend a lot of time together and the attraction to each other is evident.

I liked how thier relationship developed, yes some might say how could you fall for some one over a couple of days, but those long days equal a lot of normal dates!

There is intrigue and danger mixed in with the developing relationship between Audrey and Caleb.

It appears this is a series as two siblings already have found there significant other, and I loved the supportive family set up, it's all very warm and welcoming.

A great read, recommended

I love a good cowboy romance...There are so many to choose from and Donna Grants "My Favorite Cowboy" should be one of those picked to read, I enjoyed it very much and can't wait until its published so I can make sure all my romance reader friends find their way to a bookshelf to get it!

Finally we get Caleb's story. All three of the siblings have had their issues with their mom leaving them at such a young age, but with Caleb since he was so young we assumed he was the least affected. But in reality he was the most affected and swore off relationships because of it.

However, when he comes across the sexy equine vet Audrey things change immediately. As these boys love to do is wade in when trouble is brewing and Audrey seems to be the latest target.

The connection was also quick but thankfully the speed of the relationship was slower paced with these two changing up the formula within this series.

Audrey has her own baggage and when two people meet in the middle with similar baggage sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. This time around it did for both of these very stubborn characters.

"Your stubbornness might very well accomplish what the person after you is trying to do."

We meet Cooper and Jace in Cowboy, Cross My Heart and in this book and my fingers are crossed that the series continues with getting of both of their stories.

Audrey Martinez is a one-of-a-kind large animal veterinarian. She is a very popular and well-known vet who is contracted by two large ranches as well as working for a horse rescue organization. She is called to a horse auction house to help out three horses who are sick and have possibly been poisoned. Ex-military man, Caleb Harper is brought into the case and the two work together to find out what is happening to the horses and why. I really enjoyed this book that included themes of family, romance, mystery and sizzling secrets. Great characters who are flawed but realistic made this story so believable and heart-warming. A great addition to contemporary romance.

My Favorite Cowboy by Donna Grant will be available February 26, 2019 from St. Martin's Paperbacks, and imprint of St. Martin's Press. An egalley of this book was made available by the publisher in exchange for a honest review.

Audrey is an equine vet who has only 2 main clients – 2 very large horse operations. In her spare time, she takes care of horses in a horse rescue. Now, she has been called to a sale barn to help an old friend of her family.

There are 4 horses who are very near death and Audrey does not understand what their illness is nor how they became ill.

It becomes obvious that the horses did not contract an illness, they have been poisoned.

Caleb is a horse rancher who is a four star bachelor who runs an up and coming horse operation with his brother. Caleb loves family and a few friends, but holds himself distant from most people. He is loyal to those who are part of his circle and he loves horses.

He and his brother become part of the investigation into who is poisoning horses, who is trying to hurt Audrey's vet practice and why has the violence escalated?

This is the third book in a series, but it works well as a stand alone. I read the first book in the series and liked it very much. The characters from that first book appear here, but there is full explanation of relationships and past events.

Audrey and Caleb are strong characters. Each of them are living with histories which have made them avoid close relationships with anyone other than family. Both of them are serial daters. They are perfectly happy to have sex with someone but there will be no emotional connections.

My one teeny disappointment with the two of them would be the idea that both of them use people and have no evident sense of regret about that. In other parts of their lives they are honorable people.

I liked both of them very much. I admire their dedication to the animals in their lives. I also admire the fact that they believe that when family or close friends need them, there is no question they will go the distance to do what ever is necessary to help.

The secondary characters are well developed. Each of them emerge as people who add to the plot and the action. The family and friends of both Audrey and Caleb are supportive, caring and humorous.

The plot is well done. There is mystery here and slowly the reader becomes a part of the danger and fear which seems inevitable.

I did feel that at the end the solution was rushed. I would have felt better if the villains had been explained a little more fully earlier than the last few pages.

Ms Grant has written another terrific story. She knows her characters well and their thoughts and actions are just what would be expected of them. The descriptions of the horse business is made interesting and is a foundation of the lives of all the characters involved.

I enjoyed this book.

I received this book from the publisher through NetGalley. I am voluntarily writing this review and all opinions are my own.

Caleb has been deeply affected by his mother leaving them when he was just a kid. He's spent his years opening up a new ranch with his older brother, training horses and having meaningless one night stands.

Audrey has been just as affected by her mother's passing and her father's disappearance. She's one of the best equine vets and her little sister works with her. She is just as bad as Caleb when it comes to meaningless one night stands.

These two get brought together when some horses at an auction house suddenly turn ill. It's apparent that someone has poisoned the animals and they are racing to find out what the poison is, who is doing it and who is the target behind these actions.

Great suspense, returning side characters and a pretty hot attraction between the main characters. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was their fear of commitment getting in the way. I did like how they ultimately got back together. I would love to see a book on the sister. She's a spitfire!

My Favorite Cowboy is a very good romance. I enjoyed the plot, setting and the author’s writing. Romance readers will enjoy this book. I received an arc from Netgalley and this is my unbiased review.

I definitely enjoyed the third installment of this series. It is was light, page turner that held my attention until the very end. Audrey was a strong and capable heroine which I always appreciate. While her romance with Caleb was a little too insta-lovey for my preference, I liked them together. I wish the ending had been stronger, the mystery is solved a little too easily and the parts with their parents were too schmaltzy for me. Still this was a fun book and I am always happy to revisit the Harpers and Easts.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I received an arc from Netgalley. I love the East and Harper families and enjoyed Caleb and Audrey’s story. Both of them have issues from their past however they learn to love each other and have a fierce attraction.

Trouble is following Audrey and she doesn’t know it. Audrey is a well known and sought after vet but trouble is near and threatening her practice. Caleb steps in to help find out who is behind the threats and once he meets Audrey his whole life changes.

You don’t want to miss this one and I sure hope Maddy’s story is next.

Pretty boring in my opinion, the clue were almost all there and there were too many people from other books and their already told stories, I will not read other books from this series.

Piuttosto noioso e come giallo niente di che, inoltre c'erano troppi personaggi da altri libri che avevano giá avuto le loro storie. Non credo leggeró altro da questa serie.

THANKS NETGALLEY FOR THE PREVIEW!

Book three and wow do I love this series. We meet the Harper/East clan again when Caleb is home from his military service and now working with his brothers, finding his place fitting in. This book had a different twist than the first two, plenty of suspense along with the plot which is stellar.
Audrey Martinez is an Equine Vet and in high demand. She's come back to fill the space her father left when he disappeared after their mother died. She now has her younger sister living with her as well who is a bit out there, but she's a huge help to Audrey. Audrey is under contract with two of the larger horse farms but helps out with any animal that's at the shelter and also at the auction barn. She does that on the QT and when a horse becomes ill, the owner calls Audrey in. Audrey can't figure out what's wrong with the horse and does the usual testing, anything beyond that has to be sent out of town. Meanwhile she meets Caleb and there's a lot of push pull there. Hold on to your cowgirls britches for that. The suspense builds and we meet the Harper brother's again as well as their sister and her husband. Audrey is family now, along with her sister when things really heat up and both are threatened. I'm going to leave it at that so you can read all the twists and turns this great book takes.
I enjoyed the suspense in this one and loved Caleb and Audrey. Can't wait for the next book.

arc from NetGalley and Publisher for an honest review.

A well written perfectly paced story pulling you in from the start. The problems that start at the auction house only to be because of a better veterinarian who has great jobs offered her. It is about friends who come together and help solve the problem. Family and friends are everything with this story.

I wasn't feeling too much holiday reading so this worked. It had a mystery and suspense element that made it better. Both Caleb and Audrey were both not into committment and relationships. Both into their jobs and were all for casual until they met the other. Their was just something there as much as they tried to deny and avoid it. Plus since they both are involved into this horse poisoning happening with no one knowing why heats things up.

It may seem sudden but the attraction lead to more and while they had bumps along the way and their own misgivings. They got through it with the help of siblings and family. It was fun knowing the Harper East clan and they do take care of family. I liked the story engaging and you feel right on the horse ranches. Equine vets are interesting not the usual type. I like this series.

I will definitely be reading more of this author’s books. Well developed characters, alpha males, romance and intrigue. What more could anyone ask for? Don’t miss this one.

I really liked the suspense part of the book, but didn't connect with the characters on the romantic level. The book was definitely very fast paced and the characters fell in love pretty quickly, but that's how some romance novels are. I wanted to really like this book and read most of it pretty quickly, but Audrey and Caleb didn't have the spark that is usually there when I read a great romantic book. **ARC provided by NetGalley.

Donna Grant is still a new author to me, but having read a few of her contemporary novels I can now say that I won't hesitate to pick up more in the future. She has a knack for building her characters and making her readers feel connected to them. She also writes interesting story lines and downright gorgeous romances that will make any reader swoon! I look forward to reading more in the near future!
