The Grumpy Cowboy Next Door

A Sweet, Small-Town Romance

By: Ava Wakefield

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Being a single dad, I should know better than to fall for the boss' daughter.

Especially when our relationship starts off pricklier than a cactus.

They say no one’s seen or heard from Gemma Carter since she left for the big city eight years ago.

But with her memories gone, now she’s back at the family ranch,

And I’m the poor sap tasked with teaching her how to ride again.

Avoiding her after the boss says she's off-limits is easier said than done.

She has so many unanswered questions. And the more I get to know her,

The more I want to protect her from a world she doesn't understand and can't remember.

Sure... It doesn't hurt that she's the only woman in town not afraid to talk back, either.

It's all I can do not to kiss her smart mouth every time she moves it. And when I finally do,

Our relationship goes from strangers to enemies to forbidden lovers faster than the wind blows in Lubbock.

Until a stranger rolls into town, and Gemma's forgotten memories come unraveled like a tumbleweed in a dust bowl.

I guess the only question now is...

When we're both born to run, who's going to fly the coop first?

Note to reader: This book can be read as a stand-alone and is a sweet and clean rom-com with kisses only, no swears, and a HEA ending.

Loved the main characters.

I did not like the AI voice. It isn't a person. Inflections of voice were not present which did Not enhance the story/book, nor the auditory experience. I liked the story very much and wish I'd just read the book...

Fun story

I enjoyed this sweet story, but it would be hard to have amnesia and I liked how the author helped Gemma continue to find her memory. I liked how relationships were made better and the sweet romance between Gemma and Asher and how Gemma loved his daughter. Great story.
