Romance
Claiming Her Cowboy
(Big Heart Ranch book 1)
by Tina Radcliffe
Attorney Jackson Harris regularly goes toe-to-toe with the world’s toughest lawyers—but none of them compare to Lucy Maxwell. The feisty director of Oklahoma’s Big Heart Ranch for orphans is as stubborn as she is pretty. But Jack must stay focused; he’s only there to evaluate the ranch’s funding. Falling for Lucy and the sweet children she protects is out of the question. Though Lucy is determined to keep the ranch, she’s not about to give control to a city slicker—even a devastatingly good-looking one. But as they bump heads, Jack and Lucy gradually nudge open their hearts. Could a temporary cowboy become a permanent part of Lucy’s life?
It seemed kind of strange to read a Tina Radcliffe book not set in Colorado but it didn't take long for the characters at Big Heart Ranch in Oklahoma to steal my heart. Claiming Her Cowboy had me quickly rooting for the Maxwells and the kids at the ranch, though just like Lucy, it took me a bit to warm up to Jackson. All in all a great introduction to the kids and adults at Big Heart Ranch.
