THE VIRGIN COWBOY BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET BABY was a surprisingly great read. A 35-year-old retired billionaire who should be enjoying his success is suffering horrible migraines due to threats from his controlling mother. His mother has threatened that if he and his sister do not marry soon and have children they will lose their share of the family farm. This story is full of humour. It was really a fun read.

Matt Coolidge is a billionaire who retired at 35 after suffering some life-threatening situations. Matt is taken completely by surprise when his once close friend, Dara Marley, comes back to town with some news. Matt and Dara have not seen or talked to each other for 10 years because of an argument. Dara is back and hoping they can re-establish their friendship.

When Matt and Dara were in college together she became ill and Matt made an unselfish decision to help Dara. Even though Matt and Dara have decided they want to be together they have to decide how to deal with the feud between their families from previous generations. Once Dara learns that Matt was a workaholic who never enjoyed a dating life and has "no" experience, she volunteers to teach him what he has missed out on. They have a really great time teaching and learning. In the process they realize their friendship has developed into much more.

THE VIRGIN COWBOY BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET BABY shows how far a person is willing to go for a friend and when a friendship is more valuable than an old family feud. Lauren Gallagher did a wonderful job.

SUMMARY

You can’t thaw a heart that was never frozen.

Retired at thirty-five, billionaire Matt Coolidge should be enjoying the fruits of his workaholic years. Instead, he’s got migraines from butting heads with his mother. If Matt doesn’t get a matrimonial move-on, she’s threatening to will the family farm to his brother, who’ll turn it into a strip mall.

Then Matt’s childhood best friend rolls back into town, bringing a complication that’s not entirely unexpected—or unwelcome.

Years ago, with Matt’s help, Dara Marley froze several embryos before cancer treatment stole her fertility—and before a stupid argument tore their friendship apart. Now alone, she’s taking the most logical step to ensure the child she’s carrying has a father. Returning to Matt—and hoping bygones will be bygones.

Baby and all, Matt’s on board. And when Dara finds out Matt’s career kept him too busy for a relationship—even sex—she’s more than happy to bring him up to speed.

But a decades-old grudge between their families means keeping quiet about their good news—and the feelings they never knew went far deeper than friendship.

Warning: Contains a virgin who’s been waiting a long time for this and a woman who’s happy to show him the way. And they’ve both had it up to here with narrow-minded gossips and small-town grudges.
