MY FAVORITE COWBOY is author Donna Grant's third Heart of Texas book. This is Caleb's story and if you remember he and his brother Brice and sister Abby began their journey with THE CHRISTMAS COWBOY HERO. Brice met his lovely wife in COWBOY CROSS MY HEART. They overcame the desertion of their mother, but Caleb has a secret from that night and will never get over her walking away. Or will he find the strength and love he needs and deserves?

Audrey Martinez is a vet devoted to horses and will do whatever it takes to protect the marvelous creatures. She is called in to help a friend who has a horse down and realizes this is no normal illness; someone is out there playing a dangerous game with animals. She has no way of knowing that it will take her knowledge and the strength of a footloose cowboy to save not only the horses but her reputation and maybe her life.

Caleb Harper might wear boots, hat, and jeans just like any other cowboy and his charm is real, but his background in the Army is what truly made this man tough. He's not tough enough to resist Audrey, but he is more than tough enough to protect her from the danger coming her way.

MY FAVORITE COWBOY is a fantastic look into love, life and learning to forgive and move on. Ms. Grant gives her readers a sweet romance that is surrounded with a very realistic sense of everyday life but with an added dangerous situation. In this case, it is believed that Audrey's friend is being attacked via his horses at his auction house. But is that really what the trouble is all about? That is a mystery that you will have to read to find out. I must admit that I am usually pretty good at figuring out the mystery in books, but in this one, I was way off. There is a nice twist in this read that will hold you captivated until the end.

If you want a sexy but troubled cowboy, a feisty and troubled heroine, animals, danger, romance that is sweet and steamy and, of course, a happy ending get your hands on MY FAVORITE COWBOY!
