Shannon C.'s review of Untamed Cowboy by Pam Crooks
Western romance published by Harlequin Historicals 1 Jul 07
I really like westerns. Admittedly, I've not read many books in the genre, but I count LaVyrle Spencer's The Endearment as one of the best romances I read when I first found the genre. For me, the appeal of the western romance is that it involves characters who have to be strong and tough and show what they're made of. It is, in fact, the dirt that I love when it comes to westerns.

Gwen's Review of Untamed Cowboy by Pam Crooks
Historical romance published by Harlequin Historicals 1 Jul 07
This novel is set in late 19th century Texas, Kansas, and the Indian Territory in between. The hero is a cowboy named Penn McClure (very cowboy name), and the heroine is Carina Lockett (very cowgirl name). The basic plot is she's a successful cattlewoman with a successful spread, a single mom trying to get her daughter back from a ne'er-do-well, and he's a former government agent returning to his cowboy roots to wreak revenge on the counterfeiter who killed his fiancee. The two get to know each other and fall in love on a cattle drive from Mobeetie, Texas to Dodge City (interesting map here).

Carina Lockett is driven to build a legacy for her young daughter, and she doesn't need a man to help her do it. But when her precious child is lured away and held for ransom, she must swallow her pride and ask for Penn McClure's help.
Penn McClure has no intention of playing cowboy for any woman, especially one as strong-willed as Carina. But driving a herd of cattle to Dodge City is no easy task. And he has a score to settle with the man waiting for them at the end of the trail.
Along the way, he discovers Carina is pure female--and that her legacy has become his own.
I am not sure if this book ties into her last two Harlequin Historicals: Wanted! and The Lone Protector. We will have to ask her when she guests on Wednesday June 13, 2007. I have both books but haven't read them yet and I can't tell by her site. Although looking at her site what is next makes me sqqquueee!
