We are beyond excited to be sharing the release for Donna Grant's COWBOY, CROSS MY HEART with you today! COWBOY, CROSS MY HEART is the second book in Donna's Heart of Texas series and it is available now.
New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant takes you deep inside the Texas rodeo scene in the second book in her Heart of Texas series, Cowboy, Cross My Heart, where danger and desire ride side by side. . .
Naomi Pierce isn’t the type to let a cowboy sweep her off her feet. It’s not her first rodeo, after all. But when she returns to her Texas hometown, she can’t help but be swept up again in the rough-and-tumble world of hard-riding, bronco-busting good-ol’-boys she loved as a girl. She might be here to photograph her Rodeo Queen best friend. But it’s one fine-looking cowboy who really captures her eye…
Brice Harper is all man, all muscle, and all heart. From the moment he rides into the stadium, he can’t help but notice the beautiful stranger with a camera watching him from the stands. It doesn’t take a zoom lens to see the sparks of instant attraction. But things really heat up when he meets Naomi up-close―and he discovers that someone is stalking her friend. Brice wouldn’t be any kind of cowboy if he didn’t offer to help the ladies out. But can the rough rider keep this spirited shutterbug out of danger―without risking his heart?

4 Stars
Cowboy, Cross My Heart is the second title in the Heart of Texas series. This was my first time reading Donna Grant, nd this title can easily be read as a standalone. I will say that I really enjoyed the secondary characters and at some point hope to read the previous title in the series as well.
Brice is a sexy cowboy, and a rodeo star. He's also a gentleman and very protective of not only those he cares about but others in general, a country boy at heart. Naomi may have been raised in the country, but she's spent several years living in the city. She's smart, intelligent, sweet, kind and honest.
When I picked up this story I was expecting your typical cowboy romance, but it was quite different to my expectations. This title is more of a romantic suspense, full of mystery, intrigue, secrets, action and danger, blended beautifully with strong themes of family and friendship.
Although I liked Naomi and Brice together and their connection is realistic, their relationship moves at a very fast pace, and the time frame may be a tad more fictional. I would have really liked more development of their relationship, and most of the focus of the book is on the events unfolding, and their relationship is secondary.
I look forward to reading more of Ms Grant's work in the future, and highly recommend this title to anyone who enjoys a romantic suspense.
