Jennifer Peterson needs a man, and she's got a list of the kind of man who will qualify. Researching statistics on divorce rates and cheating, she's discovered the various traits and careers that should give her exactly the kind of loving, faithful man she wants. Unfortunately, Clay Connors meets none of the criteria and yet Jennifer can't deny the attraction between them. Jennifer is forced to rely on Clay for safety when it appears someone has targeted her. Can Jennifer avoid the crosshairs of a hired killer? And will the sparks flying between Clay and Jennifer be enough for a happily ever after?

THE JUNKYARD COWBOY is the third book in the Tall, Hot, and Texan series. The characters and story stand on their own merits, but after getting a taste of this group of fun friends, I want to visit with them more. In fact, I've already downloaded the first two books to my kindle so I can enjoy them just a bit more.

And oh, speaking of the characters... I love Jennifer and Clay, but Pete practically steals the show. I love how he and Jennifer relate as you can see their bonding almost immediately. However, it is his loyalty to Clay that makes me love him. Heck, I would read a book featuring Pete as the main character just to spend a bit more time with this feisty old man!

THE JUNKYARD COWBOY is the perfect mixture of romance and suspense. Christie Craig has written one heck of a steamy romance that is both fun and action packed! I love the witty repartee between Jennifer and Clay and some of the scenes are absolutely hysterical. THE JUNKYARD COWBOY proves yet again why I love Christie Craig's writing no matter the genre.
