From a “fabulous new voice in romantic fiction” (NYT bestselling author Lael Miller): an arrogant cowboy meets a headstrong woman determined to take custody of his niece, only to realize that she may be the family he was always searching for.
There’s not much that could rattle a cowboy like Reese St. James. But when his twin brother dies in a car accident, Reese is stunned to discover he has a six-month old niece, Sawyer. Wanting to make up for lost time, Reese heads down to Unforgiven, New Mexico, to bring her home. He doesn’t plan on Sawyer’s guardian giving him any trouble, but the intriguing, independent woman is turning out to be more than he bargained for.
Lorelei West had given up hope of having a family of her own until her sister’s tragic death brought little Sawyer into her life. And now there’s no way she’s going to let Reese take her away. Lorelei knows hotshot, good-looking cowboys like him — she’s dated enough of them — and she intends to stand her ground. Yet the more time Reese and Lorelei spend together, the harder it is to deny the attraction building between them. But opening their hearts to a baby is one thing — can they also open their hearts to the possibility of a happily-ever-after?

It was a phone call that Lorelei West was no where near ready to hear, her sister had been killed in an automobile accident, and she left behind a six month old daughter. Her sister has always been a tad bit wild and carefree and let the unexpected things in life lead her. She never seemed like the type to settled down, so hearing that she had a child that Lorelei knew nothing about was quite alarming. You would have thought that would be something you would call home about. Now Lorelei is left to pick up the pieces of her lost life and care for a child she knows nothing about. She is excited about the prospect of becoming a mother to Sawyer, and giving her the life she deserves... but a few days after she brings her home she learns that she is not the only one who wants to raise the child.
Sawyer has an uncle who never knew about her as well, and he is determined to give that little girl the world. Now Lorelei finds herself struggling to keep her wits about her with a very sexy cowboy constantly hanging around, distracting her, and leaving her a little unsettled. He is so not her type and not the kind of man she ever saw herself with, but her head and heart are seem to be disagreeing about that little fact. Could he possibly be her one?
A Cowboy for Keeps is a mesmerizing tale that unites two people who are about as opposite as they could be. Brought together by their six month old niece and the tragedy that stole the lives of their siblings was the only commonality these two had. Well maybe that, and their hang-ups about love, Lorelei has given up on finding the one to make her heart skip a beat, and Reese has known for a long time that he just isn't cut out for love. Every time he finds someone, he manages to push them away at the first sign of feelings showing up. That is until he meets Lorelei, she is the only woman to come into his life that makes him want to stick around, but the mere thought of it still terrifies him a bit. These two were quite the endearing pair, they both wanted what was best for Sawyer and they may have disagreed a time or too about that fact, but it was easy to see, they were the perfect family. I loved watching them use their love for her as a reason to keep radiating around one another, they just couldn't stay away from one another. This was quite the heart-string tugging tale, it's pages held a tragic yet hopeful story line that brought many smiles and feels. Loved every moment of it! Highly recommend!!
