Rustle: All I want for Christmas is to get back to work. I never imagined a one-woman horse rescue would stand in my way, but here I am. I sure as hell don't want to be a cowboy again, but it looks like I don't have much choice. I'm supposed to get her to close it down, and she's stubborn as hell. My dick brings up an entirely new problem, though. HER.
Jayna: Singlehandedly running a horse rescue is hard work, and when someone steals a bunch of my horses, I'm crushed. But then Rustle responds to my help-wanted ad, and suddenly, I no longer feel alone. When he asks what I want for Christmas, can I say all I want is him in my bed? Because since I walked in on him jacking off, I can't think of anything else.
This Christmas could change both their lives forever.
We all know real life, real people, and real love aren't always roses and rainbows. I do my best to keep my characters, and their love, as real as possible, even if that includes an occasional stereotype or insta-love. Let's face it. Stereotypes exist for a reason, and love at first sight is a real thing.
So, if you're good with those things, and with: dirty-talking, overprotective alpha males as heroes, and strong, smart heroines; sexual tension and steamy sex scenes; a man willing to do anything, even kill, for the woman he loves (and sometimes the other way around)... Well, then you might love my books. If those things make you squeamish, these are definitely not for you.
In case you've just found me, I'm Aden, a male romance author in a female dominated world. I live in the south eastern US, in the middle of nowhere, with the wife of my dreams, Elyse. We have a few fur babies, and a horse named Joe.
ok, I'm not sure this is a "Christmassy" read per-se If you're looking for a quick, sweet cowboy read with a touch of instalove and a hea then this little book will fit the bill.
What an interesting storyline for a Christmas story. I loved it!!! I loved the intrigue of the storyline and the undeniable tension between Jayna and her anything but fatherly father. I loved the subtle humor within the story and the laugh out loud moment killing incident with the musical penguin. Poor little guy, not his fault he was motion activated and came on at the wrong time. Too funny!
The characters are very well written and quite developed. Jayna is a strong willed beauty who knows what she wants and will not back down from doing the work that she loves, rescuing horses. Rustle is the handsome journalist who takes the job of trying to make Jayna close down shop because her father wants her to be the daughter she is supposed to be for a man of his stature. Rustle has a couple of secrets that could ruin things for him if the come to light, but he accepted this job and will do what he has to do, until he meets the feisty filly and sees the heart she has and the type of woman she is. When her horses are stolen and she is threatened, Rustle's fury takes over and his protectiveness comes out. Feelings are being felt and truths must be told before he can step up and help Jayna, save her business and hopefully not ruin himself in the process.
Aden Lowe, once again gives us a wonderful story, with great characters and all the hotness when the two leads get together. It's a Merry Christmas for them and a Merry Christmas for anyone who reads this highly recommended book. Go on and get your's today!
What do Cowboys, Christmas Penguins have that other stories do not. One is Rustle, all he wants to do is get back to work, but after sustaining a injury is is sidelined, when cleared for work he is given another assignment, and this is where is live changes, including a silly Christmas Penguin (lol) this scene still has me laughing. Enter Jayna, who is running a rescue ranch for horses, its really hard work, when out of nowwhere several of her horses are stolen and she is crushed. Little by little they develop feelings for each other, will they hook up or will her daddy (yuck) keep them apart. A great short story with likable characters even the silly Penguin.
Oh who wouldn’t love a Cowboy for Christmas. Especially one like Rustle in Aden Lowe’s Christmas tale. This was one terrific read.
Take one Hunky “Former Cowboy turned Journalist”, one spunky girl who wants to show the world she’s not the “spoiled princess” people think and one A**hole for a dad who will stop at nothing to get his daughter to give up her dream and what do you get? A storyline full of humor, excitement, intrigue and of course romance. Yep this one has it all.
A resounding 5 star romance that I highly recommend you one-click ASAP, you won’t be sorry you did.
This book was a quick read. Jayna is a horse lover. She without the approval of her overbearing father started horse rescue for abused, injured horses no one else wanted. In order to get her to stop her father blackmails someone to get her to close shop. His plans go totally wrong. It was an okay story. The book itself needs some formatting. Some of the chapters seem to begin in the middle of a chapter. Instead of a new page. But it isnt all of them.
Gotta Love A Cowboy right :-) Rustle is an investigative reporter forced to take a job he did not want at a Equine Rescue. He went in with one intention to do the job and return to what he loved. Then he met Jayna. Her love for horses, the type of women she is had him rethinking his whole reason for being there. I have read all of Aden Lowe's the's book and yet again he does not disappoint.
This story gets right to the point, I like that. For a novella, nothing was left out and all the plot points were tackled by the end, so you weren't left hanging. When an author can do that, plus keep me interested and make the storyline sizzle, I have to give it 5 stars. Loved it!
Even if you aren't a fan of insta-love you will be hooked by the characters and the story. Blackmail, daddy issues and all kinds of bad is part of what this couple deal with in their quest for freedom from their past. They each have their own reasons and those secrets could be their undoing. Another great read for an author who does it well.
4 Very fast paced love story for Christmas. I love Rustle and Jayna. They’re so determined and caring. Add in the love I found for the horses and it makes my heart super happy. There were a few things that started out confusing, but we’re clear by the end. Definitely a quick book recommendation.
Insta-loves are my favorite. And this one was really good. It's a quick read and these characters mesh together pretty easily. They connection is felt within the first few pages. Sexy and Sweet!
This quick and easy holiday read will have you hooked from start to finish. It has a hint of mystery and suspense and let’s not forget one very hot and sexy cowboy. This sexy read will have your kindle steaming up and have you getting into the festive season with a huge smile on your face.
Completely different book for this author and boy did they nail it!! Love the twists that were definitely not seen coming! Great love , suspense and smexy Christmas novella!!
Aden Lowe is an amazing storyteller but Rustled just proves how talented he is. I know this was a short quick read but you don't get that feeling when reading this Christmas gem. Intense drama, passion and humor make Rustled a book you must read!
What a cute read and a nice Christmas story and l loved the penguin reference. What a way to get back at the man who told you getting shot while covering a story wasn't his companies responsibility.
I was left feeling like the plot was the slightest bit anemic. There was a little too much "tell," and less "show." It's a good story with steamy scenes and a fitting ending, just falls on the basic side.
Cute story for Christmas. Even cuter cowboy. Add traumatised,old and neglected horses. Mix with one very determined woman and you've got this book. What else do you need!
So, so enjoyed this story. While I thought it was too short, at the same time it was a good length. I love the way the author weaves his words and tells a good story where I don’t want to put the book down until it’s finished. It’s that classic mix of racing to get to the end and not wanting it it end.
