Dinca’s Review of The Cowboy’s Bride for Hire (Cowboys of Ransom Creek, Book 2) by Debra Clopton
Contemporary Western Romance published by DCP Publishing 28 Nov 18
The Cowboy’s Bride for Hire is the second book in the Ransom Creek Series. It’s a refreshing, light, clean and lovely story, and I will continue reading the series. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did. Single daddys and cute little girls are always a hit with me. I think the title is a little weird, but it was attention-getting so I guess it served its purpose.
Carson needs some help. He is a good father but feels he is in the deep end of a very large pool and forgot how to swim. He needs assistance from a woman’s point of view. His cousin Cooper tells him about a business he heard of, so to solve his mounting little girl problems, he hires Bella Reese, who owns Bride for Hire.
Bella Reese is not interested in being a wife. Jilted one too many times to put her heart out there again, her business now is taking care of the little touches a wife would do, be it corporate or homey events. Falling in love with a child is altogether another matter.
Relax and enjoy as the story develops and Carson and Bella find their way to a HEA. Ms. Clopton has a very impelling way of weeding through the characters’ broken hearts and leading them to true love.
Grade: B
Summary:
Single males in need of a bride for a day? This is strictly an at your service business proposition. . . Do you need the eyes of a woman to help plan and/or set up an event with your personal interest and taste in mind, but with an added touch of your bride—if you had one—then call Bride for Hire and let me do the work…
Jilted twice, Bella Reese has no plans to find out if three’s the magic number. She’s done with men. But she’s always loved the idea of being a bride, setting up house, planning parties, making sure things are pretty and homey—the perfect nest for a home…and she’s determined not to give up on that dream. Six months after her final wedding fiasco, she’s turned a new leaf and opened her business, Bride for Hire. So far she’s been amazingly busy with corporate events, with no “homey” entering the equation. Until now…
After being jilted by his ex, rancher Carson Andrews will never make the marriage mistake again. But now his daughter is turning five and he wants to make her fifth birthday special and redecorate his ranch house to make it more “homey” for a growing little girl. The irony of his situation is he lives on the outskirts of Bride, Texas—the legendary home of the jilted bride…a small town south of Fort Worth.
When his cousin Cooper Presley shows him the ad from a Fort Worth newspaper, it’s everything he’s looking for—even the plainly stated absolutely no romance involved. Carson makes the call.
It sounds like the perfect plan—until he meets Bella.
