The Heart of a Texas Cowboy

The Heart of a Texas Cowboy


Two book compilation: Going Cowboy Crazy and Make Mine a Bad Boy

by Katie Lane

⭐⭐⭐💫 /5


This two book compilation tells the story of twin sisters and there journey to find each other and their own HEA’s. I can imagine finding out as adult that you are are twin and meeting your doppelgänger would be a shock! Luckily for these two, they also find partners to ease them into this new reality. I enjoyed this first twins story more that the second because the heroine in the second grated on my nerves… 


See below for my thoughts on booth books.


Going Cowboy Crazy 

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


After leaning from her adoptive mother on her deathbed that she is in fact one of twins, Faith has found her way to the quirky town of Bramble Texas to find her long lost sister, Hope. She soon learns that Hope is in Hollywood, but Hopes old boyfriend, Slate is there to help her sort things out in the town that refuses to believe that she is Faith, not Hope before she gets back on the search…


I enjoyed seeing conservative Faith find her voice and new facets of her personality as she lets loose in Bramble with Slate. These two made a cute paring, even though Slate is the supposed sweetheart of her twin sister! 


Without too many spoilers, this whirlwind romance hits the rocks when reality comes crashing back into town… some lies and old issues threaten to tear apart this new life Faith has created, unless she stops being meek and stands up for what and whom she wants. Faith manages to stay pretty positive and able to see the good in others throughout, even when she is dealt some nasty hands…


I loved Faith and Slate together. Their chemistry was electric from the beginning but they still had a sweet high school sweetheart vibe! This was a fun read!



Make Mine a Bad Boy

⭐⭐⭐ /5


Hope Scroggs has retuned to her hometown after failing at making it big in Hollywood. She is better after always being the big fish in the little pond and getting everything she wants. Reality has hit her pretty hard and she does not take it well. 


Coincidentally her thorn in her side high school tormentor, Colt shows up around the same time. These two rub each other the wrong way until the sparks they create are too much to reign in! Soon we find out the Hope is unexpectedly pregnant with Colt’s baby. How are these two going to have a baby together when they can’t even be in a room together?!?


I liked bad boy Colt. He always feels like he is not enough for his home town of Bramble and definitely not enough for the unofficial queen of Bramble, Hope, but he is constantly proving his worth throughout this story.


I did not like Hope AT ALL. I didn’t like her from the time she showed up in the previous book and was a brat and tried to tear apart Faith and Slate. Often villain is redeemed in their story, but I felt like Hope was selfish and short sighted this entire story. Thankfully Colt and the rest of the Bramble crew made the book more palatable. 




The Heart of a Texas Cowboy by Katie Lane was released January 12th, 2021.



I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever Grand Central Publishing. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
