A cowboy she can count on

From the first snowy evening they meet, rancher Diego Sanchez is mesmerized by Jenna Lattimore. Too bad she's all kinds of wrong for him. A widowed single mom, Jenna believes she's not ready for another relationship—and may never be. And Diego knows he’s not the kind of family man she and her baby daughter deserve, even as he can’t help himself from being there for them, over and over. Time spent with Diego seems to melt the wall around Jenna’s heart. With their vow to remain “just friends” doomed to failure, Jenna must find a way to convince the stubborn cowboy he’s worthy of lasting love…

Reviews

[Monae Doyle · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is book one of the Montana Maverick’s series.

This story is about a rancher named Diego Sanchez. One snowy evening he meets a woman named Jenna Lattimore. He is mesmerized by her. Too bad that she is all wrong for him. Jenna is a single mom. Jenna believes that she isn’t interested in another relationship because she lost her husband.

Diego knows that he’s not the kind of family man that she and her baby daughter deserves. He can’t help being there for them. Spending time with Diego starts to melt the ice around Jenna’s heart. They make a vow to remain “Just Friends “. Jenna must find a way to convince the stubborn cowboy that he’s worthy of love. This was a sweet friends to lovers story but there was no spice.

Tenacity Social Club-Bk 1

It is really short and a little too quick in the romance department to me. I love the book and have pre-ordered the whole series. Wish it could have been just a little longer.
