WAITING ON A COWBOY is the first book in the McGrath series by Jennifer Ryan and incorporates some memorable characters from previous books as supporting cast members. The stars of WAITING ON A COWBOY are Liz Scott and Tate McGrath, and they fill the book page by page with a glorious love story that is guaranteed to make you smile and laugh. But WAITING ON A COWBOY doesn’t make the path to love easy for Liz and Tate.
Liz has been looking for someone to be in love with her. Different than someone who loves you like a best friend, although there is nothing better than falling in love with your best friend. But it has to be reciprocal. That’s the burning question in WAITING ON A COWBOY. Liz has had her eye on Tate forever and is in love with him. Back in kindergarten, she even declared she was going to marry him. Tate does love Liz, but sees her as just a friend. They share a unique and amazing relationship. Strangely enough, they both want the same things: a family, kids,e tc.. But not necessarily with each other.
Tate is busy dating and not looking in Liz's direction. Until now. What has changed, you ask? Well, Liz has also been dating, most recently a man named Clint. Clint does all the right things but there is an undercurrent of concerns regarding his attitude and reaction to things in Liz's life, especially her friendship with Tate. Additionally, Tate believes he is not nearly good enough for Liz and doesn't feel like he's husband material.
While they are still navigating their feelings and Liz wonders what to do about Clint, she and Tate turn to each other for support. They've known each other their entire lives, but can they really be there for each other in a new type of way?
WAITING ON A COWBOY by Jennifer Ryan explores how friendships can change into something more and also touches on a sad and scary part of looking for Mister Right. There’s an expression that you have to kiss a lot of frogs but relationships can be fraught with danger. In WAITING ON A COWBOY we see a man who can’t face losing and do whatever it takes to "win." I liked that in WAITING ON A COWBOY, Jennifer Ryan did not take the easy way out and spend time excusing this terrible behavior. She tackled it head-on. WAITING ON A COWBOY is an important tale to tell and Jennifer Ryan did it with panache.
Meet New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan’s McGraths: a family as untamed as the land they call home.
Tate McGrath just didn’t get it. Why was Liz Scott, his best friend--and the person he relied on and trusted most--suddenly avoiding him! When he finally tracks her down, he finds her with a man he knows nothing about and she’s been dating for weeks. Suddenly, he can’t make himself ignore her tempting curves and deep green eyes, and all he wants to do is keep her all to himself. What was going on? Could he possibly be…jealous?
Liz had made the decision: stop carrying a torch for Tate and find a guy who wants to be her everything. Tate had always seen her as honest, dependable, smart, kind…Best friend, not girlfriend! And she needed to give up the dream of marrying the man she’d loved since preschool and move on.
But when Liz’s boyfriend turns dangerous, Tate steps up to help and soon realizes he’s the cowboy hero she’s been waiting for him to be all along.
