Cowboy Fairytales #8
Stealing Sarah
Independence can only take her so far…
After suffering an assault on the job, veterinarian Sarah Campbell is understandably nervous about being back at work. That doesn’t mean she needs a babysitter. Especially not the distractingly handsome Triple H cowboy her business partners choose for her.
Chase Ford has been in love with Sarah for months. He knows he doesn’t have a chance of winning her heart. Even if she has finally figured out her high society fiancé wasn’t right for her, she’s way out of Chase’s league. But as they bond over her high-stress job, he can’t help his growing feelings for the tough-but-tender vet.
As their unexpected friendship blooms, Sarah starts to wonder if Chase could be more than a friend. But she’s still keeping a secret—a big one—that might just drive him away for good…

In reality, she’s up before the sun, putting words on the page before her kids wake up for the day. Those early-morning and late-night writing sessions add up, and Lacy has published fifty books in almost a decade, first with a big five publisher and then as an indie author. When she needs to refill the well, you can find Lacy birdwatching, gardening, biking with the kiddos, or walking the dog.

2.25 stars.
Decent characterization for a short, this was pretty good for a novella length work. I enjoyed the dual povs and the genuine good guy H. I think the element that really makes these novellas more believable are the time jumps. There's never insta anything, and the MCs always take things slowly, which in turn make the novellas more realistic.

This was my least favorite of the whole series. I felt like I couldn't really relate to Sarah, I wanted to but... I felt from an outsiders view that she really should have know better with James. I also felt almost no chemistry between her and Chase.

Another page turner
Each book in this series is well written and the characters are it seems one big happy family. I especially like the fact there is no swearing or heavy sexual content. I would recommend these books to anyone who likes good wholesome reading.

Great story!
This story points out the difference in what Sarah thought love was and what it really is! Great sweet story with heartwarming moments and scary times too. I wish it had taken a bit longer with the ending, seemed a bit rushed. But I love this series! Great reads!

Great story
The vet is engaged but dumped on her birthday, by phone. He was supposed to be present...at her birthday.
She needs a vet tech plus she's not sleeping well & is still too scared to go home.
Chase volunteered to help, as a simple cowboy.

This was a fantastic Contemporary Christian fiction book. The story was believable and the characters were heartwarming. I was able to read a copy of this book via Overdrive, but it did not in any way affect my review. All opinions are my own

Audiobook. Cute novella and continuation of series (in which everyone's parents die at some point which is kinda weird and statistically unlikely but whatever). Available on scribd at the moment.

This one was a favourite. It started with a nail-biting scene, and the relationship started from a friendship and developed over a couple of months, instead of a short and fast courtship.
