It’s Christmas in Gold Valley, and this wounded widower is about to get another shot at love….

Grant Dodge didn’t expect to find a woman sleeping in an abandoned cabin on his family ranch. Or to find her so intriguing. Unlike every other woman in town, McKenna Tate doesn’t know Grant’s a widower. There’s no pity in the looks she gives him. McKenna wants him, and Grant has forgotten what it’s like to feel like a man. A no-strings fling for Christmas might be the kind of holiday cheer Grant needs....

With only a suitcase to her name, McKenna came to Gold Valley to confront her birth father. She didn’t plan to work at the Dodge ranch or fall for the gorgeous cowboy who keeps his heart roped off. But there’s no denying the way their broken pieces fit together. Hope brought her to Gold Valley - but will it be the gift that could finally heal Grant, as well as McKenna’s own wounded heart?

Also includes a bonus Gold Valley novella, Snowed in with the Cowboy!

Very sad story, but did have good parts. Classic ending. The extra story was disturbing but did continue the saga with Reed brothers.

"A Tall, Dark Cowboy Christmas" by Maisey Yates is a beautifully written romance that truly touched my heart, bringing tears to my eyes on more than one occasion. Yates has woven a tale that is as much about healing and hope as it is about love, set against the festive backdrop of Gold Valley.

The story of Grant Dodge and McKenna Tate is one of unexpected love and the power of healing. Grant, a widower who has been living in the shadows of his grief, meets McKenna, a woman with her own painful past, and together they embark on a journey that is both heartrending and uplifting. Yates masterfully portrays Grant’s struggle with his constant state of grief, juxtaposed with his burgeoning feelings for McKenna. His character is a complex blend of sorrow and strength, making him deeply relatable.

McKenna is a breath of fresh air in Grant's life. Her straightforwardness and resilience in the face of life’s hardships bring a new perspective to Grant’s world. I admired her character for her honesty and her ability to confront pain head-on. The way she challenges Grant’s self-pity while showing him a path to healing is beautifully done.

Additionally, the incorporation of literary references, such as "Anne of Green Gables" and "The Secret Garden," weaves a thread of nostalgia and depth into the narrative, enriching the story and highlighting themes of finding beauty and hope in unexpected places.

"A Tall, Dark Cowboy Christmas" is not just a holiday romance; it’s a story about two broken souls finding solace and strength in each other. It's about the transformative power of love and the courage to move beyond past hurts. Yates’s writing is evocative and engaging, making the book a compelling read from start to finish.

This book is a must-read for anyone who loves a deeply emotional, heartwarming story. The journey of Grant and McKenna is a testament to the enduring power of love and the possibility of new beginnings. It’s a story I plan to revisit time and again..

“A Tall, Dark Cowboy Christmas" is a remarkable addition to the romance
genre, perfect for those who cherish stories that stir the soul and warm
the heart.

Really no plot development so it was hard to believe that a grieving widower would just bang the first woman to come along that grabbed his interest with no emotional connection. Also, Bronc and bull riders are almost always short AF. Sorry, dnf.

The story line was pretty good but it drug on way longer than it should. The short story at the end was quick with a lot packed in and was good as well!

Not a bad love story!

I enjoyed the main book but I couldn’t get into the short story at the end. It’s about a step brother and step sister falling in love. Ewww. They’ve been siblings since they were kids. And it is supposed to be about adults but they have the temperaments of petulant teenagers. I couldn’t finish it.

Good story, bad short story
