Summary

Can a cowboy with amnesia find his way back to his greatest love?

Parker: I’ve not been home to Wild Heart, Texas in nine years。 I’ve been recovering from a head injury I got on my cattle ranch in Wyoming。 Trauma that stole large chunks of my memory and left me with scars I don’t want my family to see。

When my brother Walker announces he's getting married at Christmas and wants his big brother as his best man, I’m out of excuses and must go home to face my family。

I wasn’t expecting to meet the woman who’s been haunting my dreams for nine years, a woman who holds the key to my best stolen memory。 The greatest night of my life。

Grace: I met an alluring stranger nine years ago and then never saw him again。 I knew it was a one-night stand, but my mystery man left me with more than just amazing memories。

When my best friend, Emma, asks me to be the maid of honor at her upcoming Christmas wedding and begs me to let the best man stay in the apartment over my garage for all the wedding and holiday festivities, saying yes is easy。

Then I meet the mysterious Parker Rhodes。 Only he's not exactly a stranger。。。

The Cowboy’s Christmas Bride is part of the Wild Texas Heart Cowboy Series but can be read as a standalone。 No cheating。 No cliffhanger。 HEA Guaranteed。

received this book from Booksprout as an arc copy for a voluntary。 Great storyline with amazing characters that gel well together throughout the book。 The book has drama along with twists and turns。 A totally enjoyable book。 Can’t wait for the next book。

Grace and ParkerI've waited so hard for this journey。 Grace, sweet innocent Grace, had done the crazy for one night, and she wouldn't change the outcome for anything because it gave her Owen。 Now the absent Rhoades brother is coming back to town for his brother's wedding, and fireworks fly, all kinds of works actually, and the story just gets better and better 。。。。 hard to believe, unless you're a cowboy and know all kinds of crap happens when you work on a ranch, and never at an opportune time。 Grace and ParkerI've waited so hard for this journey。 Grace, sweet innocent Grace, had done the crazy for one night, and she wouldn't change the outcome for anything because it gave her Owen。 Now the absent Rhoades brother is coming back to town for his brother's wedding, and fireworks fly, all kinds of works actually, and the story just gets better and better 。。。。 hard to believe, unless you're a cowboy and know all kinds of crap happens when you work on a ranch, and never at an opportune time。 Grace gets the shock of her life when she finally "finds Hawk"。 Loved this from cover to cover, my curiosity's been building since the first book of this series, and now we, finally get Grace's story。A stand alone with a great HEA, but also with cameo appearances by all the Wild Hearts, Texas style, all worth a read。 。。。more

The Cowboy's Christmas Bride by Deborah Garland is the fifth book in the Wild Texas Hearts series and another fabulous addition to an emotional and well-written series。 A heartfelt and informative storyline and characters who will capture your heart; this story has heartbreak, emotion, laughter and tears, and a whole lot of caring and compassion too。 My only negative is that the story was a little long, but I still thoroughly enjoyed the journey。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout The Cowboy's Christmas Bride by Deborah Garland is the fifth book in the Wild Texas Hearts series and another fabulous addition to an emotional and well-written series。 A heartfelt and informative storyline and characters who will capture your heart; this story has heartbreak, emotion, laughter and tears, and a whole lot of caring and compassion too。 My only negative is that the story was a little long, but I still thoroughly enjoyed the journey。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

This story is both good and fun to read。 It has a good storyline and the characters are really well written。 While reading this story, especially in the beginning I felt it was a bit complicated with all the names occurring and as the story progressed I became sure that there were other stories prior to this one as there were already other romantic - strong - and in love people being discussed or they were quite a large part of the story and how it progressed。 What I can say about that is that I This story is both good and fun to read。 It has a good storyline and the characters are really well written。 While reading this story, especially in the beginning I felt it was a bit complicated with all the names occurring and as the story progressed I became sure that there were other stories prior to this one as there were already other romantic - strong - and in love people being discussed or they were quite a large part of the story and how it progressed。 What I can say about that is that I regret not having read them before as I am sure they were equally good as this one。 Each story clearly is written about one couple with the family and friends and love and thus we are luckily not left with some horrible cliffhangers which force you to read the next one if you want closure - I hate that kind of stories but love stories like this one where one couple is the main feature in each story but there are stories about all the people on a ranch, or brothers or siblings, each having their own individual story。 This story is one of those clearly and I loved reading it。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

An enjoyable story once I was able to connect with the characters。 I chose this book because the concept was interesting。 I really liked how everything came together。 The storyline was actually quite emotional for me so I bought into their relationship and the drama surrounding them。I requested a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。

Parker and Grace have a story of angst, emotion and passion。 This is a second chance, one night stand and accidental pregnancy。 There are misunderstandings and a bit of drama。 The story is fantastic addition to this series of interconnected standalones。

Grace finally finds “Hawk”, the man she can’t stop thinking about and the father of her son。 Parker “Hawk” finally returns back to his hometown after being away for nine years, with a secret that most of his family is unaware of。 When Grace and Parker meet again, sparks fly and the chemistry overwhelms them。 Starting over, they face obstacles that they must overcome to reach their HEA。 I was so happy to see Grace finally find her love, and their journey to get there was heart-breaking at times。

The fifth book of this series was a beautifully written story of a cowboy with amnesia struggling to remember the girl he left behind all those years ago。 I waited months for this book to come out, but I was expecting far more spit and fire when Parker (Hawk) returned to Wild Heart, Texas from Wyoming for his brother, Walker's wedding。 He met and lost his heart to Grace Westbrook on his last night in town after his parents anniversary celebration。 He left town early the next morning, only to get The fifth book of this series was a beautifully written story of a cowboy with amnesia struggling to remember the girl he left behind all those years ago。 I waited months for this book to come out, but I was expecting far more spit and fire when Parker (Hawk) returned to Wild Heart, Texas from Wyoming for his brother, Walker's wedding。 He met and lost his heart to Grace Westbrook on his last night in town after his parents anniversary celebration。 He left town early the next morning, only to get back to Wyoming to find the ranch under attack by rustlers, within days he was hurt in an accident leaving him seriously scared and with amnesia。 As a result, he had lost two years worth of his memory, and he had stayed away from his family for nine years to prevent them from finding out about the accident。 Parker kept a journal attempting to piece his life back together, he had gathered most missing parts from the other cowboys and their girlfriends at the ranch。 His mother, the only family member that knew about the accident filled in what she could about the party。 He had one memory of a woman he could not place anywhere。 He had made a sketch of her he placed in his journal that he looked at frequently。 All he knew was she was very important to him, even with the sketch and frequent dreams of Grace, he did not recognize her when he saw her again。 I was expecting some memory connection, when he saw Grace again especially with a child that looked like him being eight years old with instant chemistry between all three of them, but there was nothing not a flicker。 He thought she was beautiful and all plus, he liked the kid。 He had a low opinion of the guy that left them behind not one glimmer that that man might have been him。 Anytime he inadvertently did to hurt Grace's feelings, which was rather frequently, he could never figure out what he did。 He was really self centered thinking only of himself most of the time。 I would have liked to have read about the reaction to the cowboys in Wyoming learning Hawk had a son。 They had stood beside him all those years。 Also, we were thrown a few very interesting surprises in this book such as when Walker and Emma did not get married on their wedding day, but there was still a wedding anyway。 There was an exciting look into the next book of this series with Declan。 He was also the one to help Parker put the last pieces of his memory together in helping him decide what he needed to do in this show stopping story。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

The story that follows is filled with a renewed connection, a growing bond between father and son, sexy, steamy encounters and a whole lot of emotional turmoil。 Grace and Parker have made different lives for themselves and live in two different states。 How can they possibly make a life together without one of them having to sacrifice their dreams? Will a love found lead to more heartbreak?I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more
