About the Book
Second-Chance Cowboy
Montana rodeo star Tanner Fortier is a
good man. A man Keira Bannister never stopped loving. But when he shows
up at Refuge Ranch looking to have his late brother's saddle repaired in
time for the championships, he's the last person Keira wants to see.
For years, she's kept hidden the real reason for breaking their
engagement—and Tanner's heart. But now, with him at the ranch, she's
tempted to reveal the truth—one that could destroy him. But she knows
that to have a future with the man of her dreams, she has to settle the
past…

My Review
“Her Cowboy Hero” by Carolyne
Aarsen is the first book of her 'Refuge Ranch' and interesting start
to the series. I am wondering if the rest of the books in the series
is going to be about the rest of the Bannister siblings, for there is some interesting connections made with one sibling and
another character. This book is one of those stories where you get
the idea of what might have happened, but then there are times when
things seem to take a different track.
Here is a story about carrying guilt
and shame that one feels even if it is undeserved. This is about how those who carry
that guilt and shame deal with those things and slowly move beyond
where they started. I have to say I don't agree with the guilt that
the character is carrying around, and yet guilt works in funny ways
so I understood for the most part even though I don't agree. The shame though again I don't agree with the
shame that was being carried around, yet that would have seemed odd
if this character didn't have it with what their past.
I would love to explain what I enjoyed
about both Keira and Tanner but I don't think I can describe them
correctly without giving away so much of the story. Seriously these
two characters are each facing something that has been so big in
their lives for some time, and it is how they face those big things
that really show their true deep character that
we see peek out every so often, but it doesn't stay out for very
long.
This story does touch on a tough
subject but it is handled with care and understanding not to mention
a busload of class.
Truly this is a story of second chances
and making choices as to what is the most important things in our
lives. I found everything in the story to touch on the edge of my
heart as if Ms. Aarsen was teasing my heart with a hook, and then bam
she pulled hard and hooked my heart completely to where when I began
to feel her reeling in my heart I just couldn't help but cry.
I hope all who read this book enjoys it
as much as I did.
