One night is never enough...
Jobless, broke, and struggling to support herself and her invalid mother, paramedic Sophie Miller doesn’t have time or energy for a relationship. Especially with her mother’s clock ticking down. So when the sexy cowboy she meets at a carnival proposes a no-strings, one-night stand, she’s all over it. Until her one-night stand shows up again and turns out to be everything she’s ever wanted.
Tucker Haywood has his hands full running Paint River Ranch and trying to deal with all the changes pulling the rug out from under him. His past has taught him it’s better to keep women at arm’s length, for their sake. Stubborn and temperamental, Tucker doesn’t have a clue how to deal with a city girl who’s scared of squirrels and dirt.
So when Sophie gets under his skin, he has to do whatever it takes to push her away. Even if it means losing the part of himself he never thought he’d find.
Erin: A one night stand that turns into so much more is the premise of Elizabeth Otto’s newest book, One Night with a Cowboy. This is the second book in the Paint River Ranch series, but can be read as a stand alone. Sure characters from the previous book will make an appearance, but you’ll be able to follow along just fine if you haven’t read it.
We’ve got all kinds of favorite tropes going on in this one. City girl and country boy. Opposites attract. That whole I want you but I don’t deserve you thing that can get old after a while, but works so well here. Tucker Haywood loves his family, his job, and his ranch and one night stands are plenty for him until he meets down on her luck Sophie Miller. She’s just lost her job and is in Montana staying with her sister and caring for her dying mother. These two had chemistry like whoa and the book is a roller coaster of emotions. Usually I’m not such a fan of the up and down, back and forth, but Elizabeth Otto made me fall in love with Tucker and Sophie and I was engaged in their story from beginning to end.
Hot and sweet and angsty at times, One Night with a Cowboy was a great read and I can’t wait to see what comes next.
She's a Texan, though she drinks her tea plain and NOT sweet. She loves cheesecake, strawberry limeade's from Sonic and her favorite color is purple. In her books, she loves an HEA, but she never minds if the road is rough to get there, as long as the reward is worth the struggle.
