Cowboys of Stargazer Springs Ranch end.

I have to keep changing my favorite character as each book gets better and better. Parker and Kent are still in the running, but Anderson is just too perfect.

I fell in love with this book during the first chapter, and it wasn't even a long one. Why? The characters! The female MC Primrose and her 8 year old daughter Bailey stole my heart. Then in chapter 2, we meet the male MC, Anderson, and I couldn't be more smitten. He's a big muscular hunk of a cowboy who was so sweet with Bailey.

The love of the main characters never let up. And I loved the supporting characters too.

This is sweet swoony make you happy romance. Such a beautiful feel good story.

This is book 7 in a series, but having not read any of the other books, I didn't feel like I missed anything. I don't know anything about the other books so there may be some character crossovers, but this one is is totally worth diving into!

Ooh! I loved this book. Anderson and the cactus. Oh my goodness, so funny. Primrose is a great mom, but she is afraid to trust herself in a relationship. Bailey is a wonderful "munchkin". I couldn't put this down. Do yourself a favor and read this one.
I received a free copy of this book and this is my voluntary, honest review.

Reader's Notes:

- this is part of a series, but can be read as a stand-alone

- this is told from Primrose & Anderson's points of view

- Primrose and her daughter are still dealing with the effects from the way Primrose's past two relationships ended (neither relationship was good, which Primrose realized after the fact & she is actively trying to avoid similar relationships from happening; we only meet one of the ex's themselves in the story)

- (^ goes with the above note) Primrose's daughter shies away/doesn't speak to men outside her family

- Primrose sees Anderson's bare back end due to her work as a nurse

- Anderson & his sister lost their parents at a young age in an accident

Review:

I absolutely adored Anderson, Primrose, & Bailey's story! Bailey was adorable and I loved her growth in comfort level as she latched onto Anderson's gentle giant personality/looks combination. I loved that Anderson was great with Bailey, even before knowing about her aversion to speaking to adult guys. He was sweet, patient, and kind to her and made her feel seen/heard. (It was also really fun to see Bailey's interests change throughout the story and for Anderson to recognize & encourage her interests!) I also loved that he made Primrose feel the same way went it came to herself. I loved that Anderson knew that there was likely more to Primrose's story that made it so that she was wary of dating and was willing to be especially sensitive and patient when it came to starting and later announcing their relationship to others. I loved Primrose's family dynamic with her parents and siblings (one of which being Parker from More Than a Silly Crush!) and that they wanted Primrose and Bailey to be happy. I loved that though they were excited about the development of a relationship between Primrose & Anderson, they were also just plain excited to get to know Anderson and to welcome him as if he were family.

Also, I am so curious to see what Dallas's story is going to be like!
