Review: Texas Cowboy Sweetheart (The Stars of Texas) by Rebecca Crowley


 

The land they love might tear them apart…

Josie Star knew one day she’d step into her father’s boots and take over the Lone Star Ranch, but she hadn’t expected it to happen so soon. When her father collapses, she trades her corporate desk for a dusty tractor to shoulder the legacy of generations of Jewish Texans. She’s ready to take her place in the Lone Star’s history – with a little help from Easton McKinney. The ranch foreman is her lifelong best friend – and a man for whom her feelings once ran much deeper.

The Lone Star gave Easton the stable home his upbringing lacked, but when Josie returns, the dirt beneath his boots crumbles. She broke his heart when she left – and now she’s his boss. He’ll help her find her feet, but he won’t abandon his dream of running his own ranch. Maybe her homecoming is the kickstart he needs to finally move on from the Lone Star – and from her.

When Josie uncovers troubling family secrets, she needs Easton more than ever. But can he stay knowing she’s forever out of reach?

 

My Review:

A great way to a new series. 

When Career driven Josie Star hears of her father’s health issues, she immediately quits her job and heads home to Texas to take over Lone Star Ranch.  Returning home isn’t as easy as Josie thought.  She will need a lot of help from Easton McKinney, the ranch foreman and Josie’s long time best friend.  But Easton has just decided it’s time for him to move on.  To complicate things more, both Josie and Easton are in love with each other, but are afraid to admit it. 

I really enjoyed this book.  The story was easy to follow and kept my attention to the very end.  The ranch life scenes were written so well, they felt real.  I could tell the author has personal ranch experience or she did a lot of research to get everything just right.  These was great chemistry between Josie and Easton.  I also liked the bond between Josie and her sisters.  The romance was off the charts once Josie and Easton finally gave in to their feelings.  I can’t wait to get the next book, in this series, in my hands to see what happens next.
