Mail Order Cowboy
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Hope Roberts has a strict No Cowboys Allowed policy. Between raising her daughter, running her business, and trying to settle into her new ranch, Hope has no room for romance—especially when it comes to cowboys. What she needs is someone to help fix her ranch. But the only person to respond to her ad is the one man Hope still blames for her husband's death...
In Wishing River, Dr. Dean Stanton is pretty much a legend. Cowboy, doctor, heir to his family's ranching empire—everyone knows and loves him...with the exception of Hope. But Dean doesn't trust a complete stranger to keep Hope and her daughter safe. And despite their troubled past, he's still the best cowboy for her job.
Bit by cautious bit, Hope's little family of two is making room for the man she once thought of as her enemy. Until one day, Dean looks like the perfect exception to her "no cowboys" rule. But he's been keeping a secret from her that could destroy their newfound family...

- bioText:
Victoria James is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of contemporary romance.
Victoria always knew she wanted to be a writer and in grade five, she penned her first story, bound it (with staples and a cardboard cover) and did all the illustrations herself. Luckily, this book will never see the light of day again.
In high school she fell in love with historical romance and then contemporary romance. After graduating University with an English Literature degree, Victoria pursued a degree in Interior Design and then opened her own business. After her first child, Victoria knew it was time to fulfill her dream of writing romantic fiction.
Victoria is a hopeless romantic who is living her dream, penning happily-ever-after's for her characters in between managing kids and the family business. Writing on a laptop in the middle of the country in a rambling old Victorian house would be ideal, but she's quite content living in suburbia with her husband, their two young children, and very bad cat. - name: Victoria James

James charms in her fourth return to tiny Wishing River, Mont. (after Wishing for a Cowboy). Widow Hope Roberts balances raising her nine-year-old daughter, Sadie, with running her naturopathic clinic and fixing up the ranch she inherited from her late husband’s grandparents and has no idea how to run. For years, she’s blamed local physician (and heir apparent to a huge ranch) Dean Stanton for her husband’s untimely death—but she’s got her facts wrong. Meanwhile, Dean has worshipped Hope from afar for years, and, after her sole ranch hand quits, he offers to help out. Their enemies-to-lovers romance blossoms with the full support of Hope’s daughter, but Dean’s avaricious father doesn’t think Hope is good enough for his son and throws obstacles in their path. James convincingly illustrates the couple’s deep love and individual dilemmas, making it easy to root for them to find their happy ending. She also finds plenty of room for laughs amid the more serious subject matter of grief and healing, including a scene wherein Dean describes performing open-heart surgery on an American Girl doll. This appealing love story adds a sparkling new dimension to Wishing River’s small community. Agent: Louise Fury, Bent Agency.

January 1, 2023
A widowed mom inherits a run-down ranch and develops complicated feelings for the man who helps fix up the property. James' novel opens with Hope Roberts' new ranch hand quitting. He's received a better offer of employment from a wealthier ranch owner. Much to her mortification, the young cowboy reveals his reasons for leaving within earshot of Dr. Dean Stanton, the incredibly handsome and wealthy physician who happens to be the son of the man who hired Hope's employee. Not only that, but Dean is also the doctor who treated Hope's now-deceased husband, Brian, who had cancer. Ever since Brian's death, there's been tension between Hope and Dean. Much to her surprise, Dean offers to fill in as the new hand around the house, but Hope is adamantly opposed. Given Dean's duties as a physician, his responsibilities for his own rural home, and their icy relationship, it just doesn't make sense. Even so, Dean seems to think his assistance is the best solution ("There's no way you'll find a more qualified cowboy than me"). He convinces her to let him complete one home improvement, and before she knows it, he's turning the entire property around and winning over both Hope and her young daughter, Sadie. Hope refuses to acknowledge the feelings she begins to develop for him, worrying instead about all the reasons she thinks they could never be together, no matter how hard Dean tries to convince her otherwise. Told alternately from Hope's and Dean's perspectives, the opposing narratives slowly reveal the protagonists' complicated personal histories and the obstacles they face in pursuing their own happiness. A seemingly lighthearted read with much attention centered on the characters' physical attraction to each other, the novel also tackles weightier topics like mortality, parental responsibilities, grief, and guilt. Chock-full of details about ranch living and the endless work required for maintaining remote rural residences, the story remains focused throughout on the push and pull between the two main characters. Despite the tale's formulaic and predictable trajectory, readers will enjoy accompanying Hope and Dean on their heartwarming journey. An enjoyable country-Western love story best suited for fans of second chances.COPYRIGHT(2022) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. (Online Review)
