I've said this many a time—I love my job as a
reviewer.
If I didn't do this, I feel certain many amazing authors
would literally slip through my fingers. I love libraries
and bookstores and can't think of a more entertaining way
to spend time than perusing shelves of new books.
Reviewing gives me an opportunity to go one step further.
I get to sort through ready to publish books by an
astounding number of talented authors—and the bonus
is
I get to meet some amazing new writers. Of course they
are not necessarily new to the publishing world, but they
are
new to
me. And Maisey Yates falls into the latter category. TAKE
ME COWBOY is actually the second time around for me and
Maisey Yates. I met her while reviewing a book she shared
with another writer—one of my life long favorites.
Loved it. Looked for more and found TAKE ME COWBOY.
Can't get any better than having a really hot, sexy
rancher as a friend. Well for Anna Brown that's as far as
she would ever consider her relationship with Chase
McCormick. Anna is definitely not Chase's type. Don't you
just hate that entire 'type' business?
Chase adores Anna. She is real, smart and honest. What
you see is what you get and as a friend she is the best.
Chase knows Anna deserves a full life with the
requisite husband and children. Problem is she doesn't
show very well.
Lyndon Baines Johnson once told Lady Bird that if you
show up with your petticoat showing you won't go for what
you are worth. Well that's what came to my mind when
Chase starts his program to have Anna show herself in her
best light.
Funny how perception can play tricks on even the smartest
guy. There is nothing wrong with Anna. She's actually
quite perfect. She just doesn't take time to be girly.
And once Chase has Anna dressing that part, well
needless to say, he starts to look at his best friend in
a whole different manner.
Chase and Anna have a deal that is mutually beneficial to
both of them. Anna needs a date for a charity event, one
who will hopefully get her business the exposure she
covets. Chase needs an entry into that event to hopefully
entice investors. Anna has a bet with her brothers that
she can get a date, and even though initially winning that
bet is important, the idea of Chase as her date adds a
whole new dimension to the wager.
In TAKE ME COWBOY Maisey Yates continues her love affair
with Copper Ridge. Luckily it's a place just full of good
looking, sexy men just ripe for the picking. Maisey Yates
loves to make what might be considered odd matches work.
And in
TAKE ME COWBOY she definitely stretches
the envelope. Just because two characters are good
friends doesn't mean they would make a good
believable couple. But Maisey Yates waves her magic wand
and the sparks fly. Types are tossed away in the name of
love.
This sexy rancher is her best friend…but can he be more?
Only from USA TODAY bestselling author
Maisey Yates!
She's just one of the boys,
but with a new business in Copper Ridge, Anna Brown needs to
change that. Her brothers bet she can't land a date for a
fancy charity event. So Anna turns to her best friend—the
hottest bachelor in town—for advice.
Rancher
Chase McCormack wants in on that gala. If Anna takes him, he
promises to turn her into a lady. But the makeover reveals
what he's long suspected—Anna's irresistible! Is his best
friend prepared to be taken—heart, body and soul—by her very
own cowboy?
