All hat no cattle by Randi Alexander


It’s Independence Day, and Harper Johansen is at the rodeo in South Dakota on business. While she’s deep in cowboy territory, she’s hoping to meet a real cowboy—one who shares her dreams for the future. Shaw Donahue, tall and sexy in his cowboy hat, jeans, and boots, could be that man, and Harper quickly falls for his seductive charm. Until he tells her he’s a roughneck.

Shaw can’t believe his luck. Harper is an accomplished, intelligent businesswoman, and she’s beautiful, sexy, and willing. Until she learns he’s working the local oil field. Before he can explain the reason he’s roughnecking, she pushes him away, telling him they can only be friends. He doesn’t fit into her plans. With four days of rodeo ahead of them, can Shaw convince Harper to value a man for more than his cattle?

Break out the fireworks and get ready to kick off your summer with this HOT new collection of stories. All Hat No Cattle is part of the Red Hot and BOOM! multi-author series (stands alone for reading enjoyment)

Harper knows what she wants, and won't settle for less. She 30 years old and ready to settle down with a man who shares her dreams of owning a ranch. She's looking for a cowboy, but she wasn't expecting Shaw. He may look the part with his cowboy hat, but he's a roughneck working the oilfields. 

She said it plain and clear that she's looking for a man who wants to ranch and while he told her about his job in the oilfields but left out the part where he owns a ranch. He wants her to get to know him and make sure shes on the same page cause he sure can see a future with the fiery redhead.

They have 5 days to get to know each other, can they see a future together or will past promises and one secret keep them apart?

Their story was sweet and I loved seeing Shaw and his persistence when he knows he's got something good. And Harper while a little misguided about her ideals i enjoyed seeing how she dealt with her feelings for someone who didn't quite meet her qualifications. Great short read.
