HOT TARGET COWBOY is Book 2 in the Dark Horse Cowboys series by June Faver. If there is one thing June knows, it's cowboys. She is from Texas, after all.
BLURB:
His loyalty is to his family.
But his heart belongs to her.
But his heart belongs to her.
Eldest son Colt Garrett is the biggest, strongest and steadiest of the Garrett brothers. Colt accepts his responsibilities, knowing his future is tied to the land. Colt has stayed centered-but when he falls in love, he falls hard. He is mesmerized by Misty Dalton, the younger sister of one of his brother's friends.
Misty Dalton has held together a family plagued with problems since her mother passed away. But when the threats to her family turn deadly, Misty turns to Colt. If anybody wants to hurt Misty, they're going to have to go through the toughest of the Garrett boys first.
June Faver
is one of my 'favorite' authors. Not only has she been a good friend and mentor
for over thirteen years, but the woman can write! Proven through her multi-book
contract with Sourcebooks in the Casablanca line as well as through the many
workshops she has held at SavvyAuthors.
She is always up on trends in the industry and shares her finds with
others so we are right up there with her.
But you're
here about the book, HOT TARGET COWBOY.
I have to be
honest, when she first told me the title, I was skeptical. I'm still not sure
the title fits but once you get beyond that and into the story, you are once
again carried away to Texas and the Garret compound. A ranch grown from grief
and from love, forming a tight bond between the brothers as well as Big Jim,
the father they love and respect. The Garrets are all about family... their own
and others who might need a little help.
With that in mind, I was not surprised to see Colt, the oldest of the three Garrets, jump in to rescue Misty Dalton. He began by connecting with her younger brother, Mark. As soon as he made friends with the boy, I knew here was a hero I would want in my corner. He knew from the get-go Misty and Mark were part of a package... one he wanted to cherish.
Through the twists and turns of the usual murders and suspense found in June's books, I found myself in love with Colt, just like I fell for Tyler in book one.
Returning characters from Book 1 (Do Or Die Cowboy) include Leah. Leah married Tyler in Book 1 and is still showing her spitfire gumption when she stands up for Misty against Big Jim. You'll find not many stand up to that man without a bit of backfire.
While you don't have to read the books in order, I recommend picking them both up. While you're at it, follow June Faver on the social media sights listed below so you will know when Book 3 - Full Throttle Cowboy - releases.
I'm giving this book 5 quills not because June is a dear friend but because I LOVED the book... and I think you will too.
