Unbridled Cowboy by Maisey Yates

 

💖💖💖💖💖

Unbridled Cowboy is the first book in Maisey Yates's Four Corners series, is a modern day mail-ordered bride story; and this story had me believing it could actually happen. This deeply moving, beautifully written and heart-wrenching tale deals with two very different people, from very different walks of life, who have both been scarred and wounded by events in their lives, and who are brought together by their shared love and devotion to Sawyer's newborn daughter, June Bug. The reasons for why Evelyn decided to pack up and leave NYC for Four Corners Ranch, and the reasons why Sawyer is convinced that love is not ever something he'll experience are way too much. I enjoyed Evelyn's patient handling of Sawyer's quietness and his no nonsense approach to life's decisions. I enjoyed their back and forth as they learned to balance the day-to-day demands of life on a ranch with the heart-to-heart talks they needed to build a strong foundation together. I can't wait to see them in future books, and really can't wait to see Wolf, Hunter, and Elsie find their matches too.

Then there’s the novella at the end. It's a Beauty and the Beast retelling, but the Beast has three half-feral children instead of an enchanted castle and Belle has to bring her own library with her. Also set in the Four Corners Ranch universe, it had me smiling from start to finish; and fanning myself at times as well.

 

Ms. Yates wrote a wonderful, intense, emotional and steamy story that should not be missed. She provided a tale rich with soul-searching, angst, characters whose personal stories will tug at your heartstrings, sizzling chemistry, and an amazing cast of secondary characters as Sawyer, Evelyn and June Bug find their happily ever after. There were many wonderful characters introduced in this story and hopefully they will get their story and chance to fall in love as the series progresses. I highly recommend Unbridled Cowboy to other readers.

 

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
