Sawyer Summary:
As a recently divorced single mom, I have zero interest in flirting with guys while on a rare girlsโ weekend away with my sisters. I just want to have fun, celebrate my new job, and listen to live music at a honky tonk.
But when I literally stumble into the most gorgeous guy ever on the dance floor, those plans go up in smoke. Growing up on the barrel racing circuit, Iโve seen my fair share of sexy cowboys. But this particular one is hot as hell: Sawyerโs got a mustache, tattoos, and a very filthy mouth.
Needless to say, we end up naked in his swanky hotel room. Itโs the best sex of my life. And the way Sawyer treats me like a queen? A girl could get used to that kind of adoration.
Good thing heโll only be a one-night stand I can look back on with a smile. Iโm rebuilding my life from scratch, and I need to focus on my three-year-old daughter and the dream job I just landed.
Imagine my surprise, then, when I move to Hartsville and run into a tattooed cowboy with an adorable daughter of his own. Now, Sawyer wants more than the occasional playdates between our girls. But the closer we become, the more determined this sexy single dad is to keep me forever.
As much as Iโm falling for Sawyer, Iโm terrified. Iโve been down this road before with my ex, and I wonder if I can trust this cowboy. Will he rope the moon for me? Or is my heart destined to be trampled all over again?
Sawyer: My Review
Lucky River Ranch is the place to be if youโre in your cowboy romance era!
Jessica Peterson has written one of my favorite small town romance series featuring some hot and sexy cowboys at the Lucky River Ranch and she continues the fun with Sawyerโs love story.
In it, she really explores the joys and struggles of single parenthood where two single parents end up having a hot and heavy one-night stand only to run into each other again in their small Texas town.
I adored how Jessica made Sawyer and Avaโs night not only pretty hot but also really fun for both of them. It was a night for them to kick back and just โbeโ while finding that perfect someone whom you can let your guard down with and feel wanted again. I loved that for Sawyer and Ava who could giggle, and banter and enjoy themselves all over the penthouse!
The rest of the story focuses on their strong connection but also Avaโs reluctance to enter into anything serious as she has no plans to marry again given her previous relationship with her ex-husband. Whereas Sawyer is looking for his better half to marry, settle down with, and start a family.
It was adorable how their two girls got along so well and how both Ava and Sawyer had to learn to rely on and accept help without the guilt.
While I would have liked to have seen Sawyer do some more โcowboyingโ as Ava calls it, it was fun to get a taste of barrel racing which I desperately want to watch now.
If you love single parent romance, dirty talkers and found family romances, then Sawyer is the book for you. It can be read as a standalone (itโs book three in the series), but I highly suggest circling back to the previous two books because they are fantastic and not to be missed. You have to meet Sawyerโs hot brothers with more to come!
