The Heart of a Texas Cowboy (Men of Legend #2)
by Linda Broday
There is nothing truer than the saying love it blind. The first
few pages of this story just ripped my heart out. Your heart breaks for one,
than you hear the whole story which spins you in a 360 for poor Houston and how
he was betrayed. A year later two lost hurt souls come together when two
fathers make a deal forcing them to marry. One swearing to service and protect his
wife and her child the other hoping for the best, can these two help heal the
wounds others have given them?
A story full of danger, hope, dreams, action, and adventure
with excitement, heartbreak, desire, pain and sorrow as two people build a life
together and those who want to bring it down. The story captivates you as it takes you back
in time to a wilder side of Texas where actions speak louder than words. A
place where it is kill or be killed, the hunted become the hunter and justice is
service with bullets flying. Men had honor, women had souls and children had
respect they grow up fast and learn to protect those they love. The author takes all of the above and
captivates the reader in a story that will hold your attention keeping you spellbound
with a story you will have trouble putting down. She shows you the best of the
best and the worse of the worse taking down one evil man at a time that is if
they do not get taken down first.
Houston is a man of his word he holds power but in the west
it doesn’t mean much. He is a gentleman until the end always putting his family
first standing in the way of danger to keep them safe. He is forced to marry a woman that most would
take one look turn their heads or make fun of.
He takes it all on the chin making her feel beautiful and loving her
child that isn’t his. Lara is a broken woman who has been to hell and back
facing things we hope to never face. She has lived our worst nightmare taking
one day as it come facing life with her chin held high. Life has not been easy
and it is about to get worse as the man who attacked her hunts her down to take
back what is his.
I love watching these two as their relationships grow both
learning so much making a life for them and their child on a trail drive as a
gang is hot on the tail making habit over Texas that will bring most to their
knees. The story holds you captive keeping you holding your breath and breaking
your heart, making you smile and laugh why keeping you on the edge with very
vivid details that pulls you in taking you away. I really hated to put this
book down. I stayed up very late and picked it up first thing in the morning. I
had to see where the author would take it. She surprised me at every turn
making my heart beat faster as my eyes grew bigger. The adventure is thrilling
and the danger feels real. Ms. Broday puts so much emotion in her stories
spinning a tale of romance that keeps you breathless. She makes you smile,
laugh and just wanting to cry. Her characters become real leaving you with your
hand over your mouth and tears in your eyes. It will be a story that stays with
you making you understand how vivid Texas was years ago. These are characters
that kept American free they stood up for what is right giving back not only to
the land but the people. Fighting for justice the only way they knew how. The
supporting characters add so much from their love of the land to their love of
one family who is about to lose it all. There is shock and surprises waiting
for you between these pages. The author takes you on a story that spins out of
control leaving you very sad and then does a 360 making you smile with relief.
If you have not read any books from this author you are truly missing a great experience. She is truly an author that deserves all the
awards she has received. Give this book a try and you will know why she is a
best seller as she takes you back in time bring Texas alive not only in your
mind but in your soul. When the end came I wanted it to go on. I have picked
this as one of my favorite reads for the year.
