BOOTS AND THE ROGUE is Book 10 in The Ugly Stick Saloon series
by Myla Jackson and can be read as a standalone. The phrase
"save a horse, ride a cowboy" is true to form in this series
of books. If you're looking for sizzling scenes and some
unconventional relationships this series provides it all. BOOTS AND THE ROGUE is tame compared to some of the other
books in this series. I have enjoyed everyone of them. This
story is about one of the brothers returning home after being
away for eight years because he's lead to believe his mother
is very ill and may be dying. The mother has issued an
ultimatum to her sons that if not fulfilled will have dire
consequences for them. It's hilarious to see the means that
she uses to get what she wants. It's down right pitiful to
see just how helpless these three brothers are when the mother
puts her foot down. This is a story about forgiveness, coming
home again and finding happiness. Brody McFarland left home eight years ago when he had a
falling out with his younger brother. He has been summoned
home under false circumstances concerning his mother's health.
The mother has issued an ultimatum to her three sons and gone
on strike from cooking and cleaning. The brothers are in
desperate need of a cook and hires Jessie Taylor. Jessie is
down on her luck and desperately needs a place to stay, so she
agrees to become their cook. The problem is she really can't
cook. Brody and Jessie certainly heat things up. The last thing Brody wants is to
get involved
with anyone after getting hurt years ago. Jessie is all alone
and just wants a place to call home. This is a great series with hot, sexy cowboys, cowboy
strippers, steamy sex, cowboy auctions where they all have a
great time!
SUMMARY
There’s more than one way to feed a hungry man. Ugly Stick Saloon, Book 10 Brody McFarlan left home eight years ago after he and his
younger brother had a falling-out over a girl. When a
frantic phone call sends him racing home, he’s astounded to
learn the truth. Mom isn’t sick, she’s threatening to sell
the ranch—unless he and his brothers get busy settling down. With Mom on strike, Brody uneasily settles in to help—and
find a replacement cook before he starves. Fired from her last job, Jessie Taylor is forced to ride out
on her horse, leaving her car behind. Hot, tired and
homeless, she stumbles onto the Ugly Stick Saloon, grateful
to pick up a spatula in trade for a burger to fill her belly
and a much-needed rest for her road-weary mount. One bite of Jessie’s tasty burger, and Brody offers the
rough-and-tumble blonde a job and a stall. It doesn’t hurt
that she’s sexy as hell, and he hungers for a taste of her
sweet pink mouth. The only bur under his saddle is the
grudge he still carries…and the fear that his brother will
once again swoop in to steal the pretty filly right out from
under him. Warning: Burning hunger lights fires in the kitchen, the
barn, the pasture, and more when another McFarlan brother
bites the romantic dust in the sexiest possible way.
