Coming Home to the Cowboy by Megan Ryder
4.0
A sweet swoony love story
I love wounded damaged heroes - probably because they seem to deserve a happy ending the most and make him a cowboy and phew…Chase is a really good example. He’s a good guy and you just know love will let him see he’s such a kind, sweet, good guy who deserves all the good things. Chase was bounced around foster families his whole life until he ended up at the Rawlings Ranch as a teenager with his foster brothers Ty and West. Chase is a bull rider on the rodeo circuit who sends his winnings home to support the ranch. He gets badly hurt on a ride and is home temporarily to heal. Hailey grew up with Chase and married his best friend Adam who died during a bull riding competition. She’s a single mom and has no desire to get involved with Chase. Chase and Hailey’s journey to their inevitable HEA is a bit of a roller coaster ride but what a beautiful journey it is. This book has a little bit of everything - sweet moments, fan your face steam, real life issues, imperfect characters, tearful moments, and heart squeezing love - expect to laugh, to swoon, and to cry. While I love reading romances for the HEA, when real life issues are included - like death, single parenthood, foster families, and the scars those experiences leave - it makes for more three dimensional characters and more well rounded storylines. This story was a masterpiece of all the things. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
