Review & Contest Reminder: Cowboy Trouble by Joanne Kennedy

What is a girl to do when your ex leaves you for your boss and you look back to realize that the life you knew isn't the one that you wanted to begin with. This is the story of Libby Brown, crime scene, Big City journalist who has decided to move to Wyoming and live her dream. To have a chicken farm. In Joanne Kennedy's book Cowboy Trouble you are immediately captured by Libby, frankly she cracked me up. Always cautious and on her toes, the Big Bad City trained her well to always keep her eyes open and stay a little on guard. What she didn't expect is the arrival of her new neighbor Luke Rawlins. Sexy cowboy, chaps and all comes strutting up her drive to welcome her with his homemade casserole dish. Well, hello the man can cook and he melts your heart with his polite and charming demeanor.... oh and he's sexy as hell. I knew I was hooked. That cowboy charm alone won me over.

The humor of their relationship most definitely helped the flow of the book as well.
Coming off the bad relationship and a little bitter toward men and new relationships Libby fights her attraction to Luke. Even when he designates himself her protector. Why does she need protection? Well, there was a woman a while back that went missing. The owns only unsolved crime, lets be real here, the only severe crime this sleepy little town has ever seen. Thing is, the sheriff can't seem to find out who did it or why.
Now working for the local paper Libby and Luke are on a mission to solve the crime of the mysterious missing woman and capture who murdered her.
Fun because Joanne Kennedy has created such real characters that loved getting to know, sexy because Luke and Libby's chemistry is just plain ole undeniable, and with a little mystery to book, this was a sure fire winner in my book and a true can't miss.


Fleeing her latest love life disaster, big city journalist Libby Brown's transition to rural living isn't going exactly as planned. Her childhood dream has always been to own a chicken farm—but without the constant help of her charming, sexy, cowboy neighbor; she'd never have made it through her first Wyoming season.

Handsome rancher Luke Rawlins is impressed by this sassy, independent city girl. But he yearns to do more than help Libby out with her ranch…he's ready for love, and he wants to go the distance. When the two get embroiled in their tiny town's one and only crime story, Libby discovers that their sizzling hot attraction is going to complicate her life in every way possible…

I am a working mom with an addiction to coffee, chocolate, and books.. I read an average 3 to 4 books a week to escape reality. I have setup this site to organize my own thoughts and help others when choosing what to read. Since I can be a dimwit at times I decided to keep a record of the books I read. This record turned into reviews so I would remember if I liked the book I forgot I had read. I am not particularily funny and my grammer sucks so please don’t expect much. Basically I don’t know jack about many things, but I do know what I like in a novel and what makes me want to spend my money on an author.
