Mail Order Cowboy (Gold Valley, #1.5)

Maisey Yates

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

She’s come to Gold Valley, Oregon, for a fresh start—and roped the perfect cowboy Jackson Reid is a man fully in control of his world, and his ranch. But when a past one-night stand shows up without warning and leaves him holding a baby, his whole life is turned upside down. He’s in over his head, and he has one solution: a nanny. But when he picks Savannah Sturm up from the airport, he finds that she’s so much more than the “plain and tall” woman she described herself as… With one glance, Savannah’s new boss makes her feel more than her cheating ex ever did. Jackson insists he can’t do relationships, especially now that his priority is baby Lily. But his “no strings, just sex” offer is irresistible. And as raw desire gives way to something far deeper, maybe it’s Jackson’s turn to learn how right being wrong can feel…

    At under 100 pages, this is a super quick read. That doesn’t take away from the story at all though. I really enjoyed this book and was rooting for Savannah and Jackson from the start. They were both just amazing people and deserved to be happy.

    I know there are quite a few people out there that don’t read the .5 books in a series because they tend to be shorter and therefore have instalove. Believe it or not, this story did not feel like an instalove story. Part of that is the way the author wrote the passage of time. This story covers a few months. There are time jumps, but it doesn’t seem forced and I never felt as though I was missing out on anything.

    I know I’ve said it for the last two books in this series, Cowboy Christmas Blues and Smooth Talking Cowboy, but I’ll say it again. I’m glad I decided to start purchasing Maisey Yates’ books instead of going on the library waiting lists. She is just a phenomenal writer who gives me all the feels.

    I read this novella at the end of Untamed Cowboy and I really enjoyed it! Savannah and Jackson were great together! I loved reading about them and also liked that it was a short story that worked out in the end. Also, just because it was a quick read doesn’t mean that it wasn’t packed with heat!

    This was an extremely cute and steamy quick read. Definitely worth a read!
