Sweet Home Cowboy by Jackie Ashenden, Maisey
Yates, Caitlin Crews, and
Nicole Helm is a wonderful, connected
compilation of romance stories reminding the characters of the strength and love of family. This anthology has the theme of siblings; actually, four half sisters who
have come together to create their own version of home after their paternal
grandfather suffered a recent health scare. Each sibling’s story is written by
a different author and each story is of novella length.
Four local cowboys in Jasper Creek, Oregon, have no idea that “old” Jack
Hathaway's recent illness is going to change their lives, forever. When Grandpa
Jack gets sick, his four granddaughters come together in the small town to take
care of him and his uncultivated ranch. These four young ladies, all fathered
in the same year by Jack's ne'er-do-well son, met when their four different
mothers sent them to the same summer camp at age 13, so they could get to know
each other. Bonded as sisters for the past dozen years, they decide to join
forces and help each other set up their dream jobs on their grandfather's
dilapidated ranch. Now they are finally ready to support each other as they
each find the cowboy of their dreams. Each sister
has a unique personality and passion, and it was really enjoyable getting to
know them one by one. They each have their own creative outlet, all of which
blend together beautifully to create their "Four Sisters Farm" store
a profitable place. It is difficult to
pick a favorite sibling story; they each have their own strengths and the
author develops them in weird, wonderful ways.
Each of these novellas are wrapped up in a truly charming epilogue, and
what these 4 authors have created is a joyous, magical, funny, charming, and
touching homage to sisterhood, womanhood, family and friends, and I cannot
recommend it highly enough. Bravo, ladies! I can't wait until the next
collaboration.
Ms.
Ashenden,
Ms. Yates,
Ms. Helm,
and Ms Crews wrote wonderful and moving romance anthology that is
not to be missed. Each story gives you warm tingles, emotion, and charming
characters and the magic of family, that, by the end, you feel as if you know
the minds and hearts of each of its characters, understand their loneliness, their
hopes and their dreams. I highly recommend Sweet Home Cowboy to other
readers.
