Rocky Mountain Cowboy Christmas
by Katie Ruggle can be counted as the 5th book in the Rocky Mountain
K-9 Unit series, but it reads more like the first book in a related
series. It can stand up fine all on its own regardless. It is currently scheduled for release on September 25 2018.
When
firefighter and single dad Steve Springfield moved his four kids to a
Colorado Christmas tree ranch, he intended for it to be a safe haven.
But he never expected that he would come face-to-face with the one girl
he could never forget. Folk artist Camille Brandt lives a quiet life. As
the town's resident eccentric, she's used to being lonely, until Steve
freaking Springfield changes everything. Brave and kind, he's always had
a piece of her heart, and it doesn't take long before she's in danger
of falling for him and his rambunctious kids. But as mysterious fires
break out across the sleepy Colorado town, Steve and Camille will have
to fight if they want their happy family to survive until Christmas.
Rocky Mountain Cowboy Christmas
is a contemporary romance with the touch of suspense that I have come
to expect from Ruggle. I adored Camille's character. She is not a fan of
attention, and just wants to go about her day with as little small talk
and conversation as possible- a trait that I share (to a smaller
extent). Steve is trying to be a good father, and give his children a
safe and happy home. Working with the fire department and at the family
tree farm- as well as getting them involved- seems like the way to go.
When Camille and Steve reconnect the attraction is there- but self doubt
from both and parties and some interfering family make things more
complicated. Then there are the nosy neighbors, fires, and personal
quirks make things even more interesting. I greatly enjoyed watching the
two dance around each other, and loved getting to know Steve's kids
better. I found the suspense part to be well done, and had my suspicions
as to who was behind the danger, and why. I will say I was partly
right, but loved the ride to get to our happy ending. I love this story,
and series, and will continue reading everything I can from the author.
