I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. Home for a Cowboy Christmas delivered a delightful, slow burn Christmas romance with a dash of suspense. Witness to a murder at the hands of a mob boss placed Emmy Garrett’s life in danger. To guarantee her safety, the US Marshalls placed her in protective custody. However, with a leak in the department, protective custody was an illusion. To ensure she stayed alive to testify against the mob boss, Dalton, the US Marshall who saved her from an assassin, took her to stay with his friend, Dwight Reynolds, on his ranch deep in the mountains of Montana. Home for a Cowboy Christmas was such a wonderful story. From the moment I started reading, I knew it would be an engaging read. The story pulled me in, making it difficult to put down. The romance featured began as a tiny spark and slowly developed into a blazing inferno. It was fun getting to know both Emmy and Dwight. It was also a pleasure getting acquainted with Dwight’s sister Victoria and his dog, Sam. Victoria brought some levity to the story, while Sam provided comfort. Emmy was such a brave soul. A woman with guts. One would think that after staring down the barrel of a gun, she would change her mind about testifying. Instead, she did what she believed was right for justice to prevail. Dwight is no ordinary cowboy. The story introduced him as a former military officer, FBI agent and Homeland Security agent. Definitely a badass and the perfect person to protect Emmy. His protective nature and his feelings for Emmy shun throughout the story. Sam, taking a shine to Emmy and providing her the comfort she needed, gave an additional feeling of warmth to the story. The suspense which bounced off the pages had me on edge. I felt like a nervous Nellie at every page turn wondering when the hitman will find Emmy. Despite knowing that Dwight could keep her safe, it didn’t diminish the feelings of fear the story evoked. With such a suspenseful build up, one would expect an explosive conclusion. Unfortunately, it did not go as expected. The outcome was good, but I hoped for more. Despite the disappointment with the conclusion of the suspense angle, 🎧︎Home for a Cowboy Christmas was a satisfying holiday romance. Nikki Zakocs narrated, and she did a great job with the narration. Her male and female voices were well done, and her pace and tone worked great for the story.
