A young foster child turns out as a handsome horse trainer.
He's keen to give back the aid he received, and we see him
starting to teach young people about mares and foals in
COWBOY ALL NIGHT. The modern western romance from popular
author Vicki Lewis Thompson will delight horse lovers
everywhere.
We find Brant Ellison at the birth of a palomino foal,
quietly appreciative of the miracle of life. Naturally
there are phone photos being taken but Aria Danes, the
mare's owner, is just glad all goes well. She's owned the
gentle palomino mare since she was sixteen and intends the
foal for her brother, who is now in a wheelchair after an
accident. When they are finally able to relax, share a meal
with friends and toast in champagne, Brant and Aria
discover a mutual admiration and it's not long before they
take it further. As someone points out though, they are
like ships passing in the night. From a shattered family
background, Brant hasn't ever looked to have a permanent
relationship.
Josh, Aria's brother, has an IT job which he works from
home and bitterness has turned him off trying to ride, walk
or drive again. Aria can't think how to persuade him to get
interested in the perfect colt foal. He just sits with TV,
computer games and junk food. What's more, suppose the foal
gets spooked by a wheelchair? Clearly some work needs to be
done.
This is a vigorous sexy romance and you may never look at
cherry pie the same way again. The laughs are easy among
the ranching community and everyone's a consenting adult,
with no great suspense to get in the way of two people
finding each other.
Vicki Lewis Thompson has written contemporary westerns,
paranormal and shapechanger romances and more. She brings
real life dilemmas into her tales and creates vivid
settings for the adventures. COWBOY ALL NIGHT is in the
series called 'Thunder Mountain Brotherhood'. I found it
read fine as a standalone but there are several references
to other relationships among the earlier characters so you
might prefer to read them in order. I did find it annoying
that a supposed epilogue to this tale is actually the first
chapter of the next book relating to an entirely different
set of characters. You can safely skip it for now.
Brant Ellison's easygoing nature makes him one of the most
sought-after horse trainers in Wyoming. His powerful muscles
don't hurt, either. Nothing makes Brant happier than
training a new colt at his foster home, Thunder Mountain
Ranch—except maybe the colt's sexy new owner, if she wasn't
all work and no play.
Aria Danes hopes that once trained, the colt will help her
injured brother. But Brant is proving to be a distraction
from her responsibilities—she has a wicked urge to strip him
from his hat to his boots. Ride 'em, cowboy. Aria and Brant
can't get enough of each other. Their craving is insatiable,
even if they have nothing in common. Even if some cowboys
can never be tied down…
