Welcome back to Carolyn Brown's Longhorn
Canyon series. The fourth installment in this
delightful, full of fun and sass and of course cowboys is
COWBOY REBEL. Carolyn Brown does not suffer fools, and in
COWBOY REBEL, she is brilliantly taking on the chore of
rehabilitating a cowboy whose reputation precedes him.
Needless to say, Carolyn Brown does it with her signature
wit and country music as the background for a wondrous
addition to one of my favorite series.
To be completely candid I have never met/read a book by
Carolyn Brown that hasn't left me totally entertained and
smiling and COWBOY REBEL is no exception. We even get to
revisit with the Fab Five senior citizens that have been an
excellent supporting cast throughout much of the Longhorn
series.
But this is Tag and Nikki's story. Tag is the cowboy rebel,
and Nikki is an RN with a big heart and an untrusting soul.
Nikki is best friends with Tag's sister Emily, and so that
is going to be a major hurdle for Tag in his attempt to
start a relationship with Nikki. Truthfully Tag isn't all
that positive that he is looking for a relationship, but he
fully acknowledges that Nikki is not a one night stand. And
if he isn't careful, he stands to lose more than gain in
pursuing her.
Tag seems to be finally exhibiting some maturing in his new
role as a partner in the ranch he now owns with his twin
Hud. That surprises everyone -- Tag included. But his past
is trying to wedge into his new life, and that is going to
cause some problems for everyone.
Everyone has a past, but Tag's was a lesson in immaturity
and carelessness. Family is tough, but Tag is lucky to have
his twin Hud and older sister Emily in his corner. As Emily
warns him in his battle between the old Tag and the new one,
the one you feed will win something that reminds him of his
granny's wisdom.
Nikki also has some rather mysterious troubles to handle,
not the lease of it her extremely odd mother. Just wait till
you meet her. Nikki is afraid to move forward in any
relationship. Her fears of being like her mother are
substantial and real. Secondly, she is honest with herself
that one introduction to her mother is very likely going to
shut doors. And yet Nikki realizes that Tag doesn't seem
ready to throw in the towel.
Carolyn Brown often references country music titles and
lyrics in her stories, which is sure to bring a smile to
your face and often leaves you humming. Tag's mantra is "Live Like
You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw. This song seems to
outline his plan for life. That is until Nikki becomes so
important to him.
So if you are looking for some real country fun and looking
to meet amazing characters COWBOY REBEL by Carolyn Brown
should be on top of your must-read list. Thoughtfully
written with some of Carolyn Brown's signature hometown
dialog that is guaranteed to warm your heart, have you
humming country in your head and bring a smile to your day.
