Settling down and starting a family is something Diesel has considered, regardless of his one-night stand reputation. However, he just might be single forever since who he wants is off-limits—his best friend’s little sister.
He’s been in love with her for years, but betraying his friendship could ruin everything.
Rowan Bishop is over men, especially after finding out her boyfriend cheated and left her heartbroken. After graduating from college, she’s back home and has to face the one guy who purposely gets under her skin—her older brother’s best friend.
She hates that she’s attracted to him, but she’s willing to fight for who she wants.
Spending time together is a bad idea, but neither can deny the chemistry sizzling between them. Late night talks turn into spontaneous adventures and just when Rowan’s willing to admit how she truly feels, Diesel’s past catches up with him and ruins their picture perfect romance.
One secret turns into another and before either can grasp their new reality, more truths unravel—threatening to expose their forbidden relationship.
*Note: This is a full-length stand-alone novel in the Circle B Ranch series and a spin-off from the Bishop Brothers series. You don’t need to read any of the other books beforehand to enjoy this one!*

Catching
the Cowboy is the second title in the Circle B Ranch series featuring the
second generation of Bishops. This particular
title features Rowan Bishop, daughter to Alex and River who were featured in
Taming Him, and Adam Hayes aka Diesel, Riley’s best friend who story was told
in the previous title Hitching The Cowboy. As you may have gathered by the synopsis, and
my ramblings Catching the Cowboy is a brother’s best friend romance, but it’s
also a enemies to lovers romance. This pair spent their teenage years tormenting
each other, in an effort to hide their true feelings. This title is a feel good
romance, with a few surprising twists and turns.
Diesel caught
my attention in Hitching the Cowboy, where he was depicted as a fun loving player,
but in this title we see that there is more than meets the eye. He’s a layered
and complex character. Whilst sweet,
sexy and charming and charismatic, he’s also a possessive alpha, and quite the
joker. He loves to play up being a
jocker, when most of his commentary is actually his true thoughts and feelings
being delivered with a cheeky grin.
Rowan is a fierce,
sassy and strong heroine. She’s determined
and driven to succeed and put her college degree to good use whilst aiding her
family. She’s distrustful of men in
general, and makes Diesel work for her affections.
The banter
between tis pair is antagonistic, yet quite playful and fun. Quite often their interactions are flirty and
filled with sexual innuendoes, sarcasm and humor. Their connection and chemistry is undeniable.
Several of
the Bishop cousins make cameo appearances as well as the previous
generation. I really would have liked to
have seen more of Riley and Zoey throughout this title, I think Zoey only
appeared in one scene whereas Diesel was a prominent figure in the previous title.
Rowan and Diesel’s
story has a touch of drama, but has plenty of heat, heart and humor and the
themes of family and friendship flow throughout not only this book but all the
books revolving around the Circle B ranch. I will be eagerly awaiting the next addition to
this series.
