The Cowboy's Baby

By: Gretchen Lee Rix

Narrated by: Carol Herman

Wealthy Cassandra Lennon has pricked her finger on the spindle of personal tragedy 15 years earlier and isolated herself behind rose-covered walls. They call her the Sleeping Beauty. But this is modern-day Texas and her castle is a ranch. Ellison Stewart is so enticingly attractive to women their knees buckle on first sight, and he hates it. Is he the prince Cassie has been waiting for? As manager of the gated community and golf course adjacent to her property, Ellison's almost got too much to handle already. Especially when he misplaces his golf course. Goats are heavily involved. And a lot of toilet paper. Throw the cowboy's baby into the mix and this modern take on the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale becomes a romantic comedy of errors about accepting love where you find it.

Definitely not the same old baby. From Gretchen Rix, the author of Talking to the Dead Guys and Arroyo. First in The Cowboy's Baby series.

Just confusing

I was not sure if I was coming or going. there were many character and the blending of them felt off. It did not feel cohesive. There were sections of the story that was likable.

The narrator just was not my cup of tea. The older people didn’t really sound older and those that were in supposed thirties and forties sounded much older. The picture being created by the narration was not the same as the picture created by the story.

Not my favorite

I hate to say it, but I didn't enjoy this book much at all. The narration wasn't great (the narrator sounded too old to me) and the story just didn't hold my attention. The authors writing style was okay so maybe I'll check out another title at a later time.
