Rodeo Christmas at Evergreen Ranch by Maisey YatesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Jake Daniels is a retired bull rider who left the rodeo after his best friend got hurt from a bull. He purchased a ranch and he's moved near his family. That's all he needs and trusts though he is dreading the holiday season. Then his best friend shows up with a proposal that he is surprised to find himself considering.
Callie Carson loves the rodeo but being a female who got hurt created a setback in her plans to ride saddle
bronc. She needs her trust fund to fulfill her dreams and decides to ask her best friend to marry her so she can get her money. Jake agrees to help her achieve her goals, as he had with many things in the past.
But the best friends soon realize there is a difference from being friends to being husband and wife. As the dynamic of their relationship change, each must decide if their marriage is worth holding onto.
This is my first book in this series and I thought it was a good read. I loved Jake's character although Callie rubbed me the wrong way at times. I didn't like her attitude towards her mother. Both Callie and Jake had past hurts that kept them from wanting to fall in love. So it was good to see Callie mature and also Jake open up to his family. I loved his family interactions.
I enjoyed this marriage of convenience trope as well as the best friends falling in love. Thank you #Netgalley and #Harlequin.
