Publisher's summary

Sidelined with a major injury, steer wrestler Cort McGraw struggles to come to terms with the end of his career. Shanghaied by his sister and best friend, he finds himself on a run-down ranch with a worrisome, albeit gorgeous widow, and her silent, solemn son. Five minutes after Cort McGraw lands on her doorstep, K.C. Peters fights to keep a promise she made to herself to stay away from single, eligible men. When her neighbor said he knew just the person to help work her ranch for the winter, she never expected the handsome, brawny former rodeo star to fill the position. Ready to send him packing, her little boy has other plans...

Rodeo Romance Story #2

I have the four of this series that are currently available on Audible. This is my very favorite. Cort and Kaylie are real people that we all may know and they need each other to be whole. The struggles while they fall in love are recognizable as real-life problems but as the saying goes… Love wins!! Hooray!!

Christmas and Cowboys!

Christmas themed stories always give me such good feelings, and Shanna Hatfield has granted me all those heart warming feels. Can't go wrong with a cowboy story, this one telling us of Cort McGraw, steer wrestler that has had a career ending injury and his life is spiraling out of control. When he gets a job helping at KC Peters at her ranch, it's a life changing experience for him. Kaylee(KC) is a widow with a son that does not speak. She needs the help, but has no intention of getting involved with this handsome cowboy, no matter what he does or how he is with her son. Will Cort win her over? You will have to give this wonderful story a listen! Hatfield has shown us how circumstances can change your life in an instant for the bad and the good.

With wonderful narration by Luke Andreen, you will feel each and every emotion with a slight western twang! His voice is perfectly suited for this kind of story and makes the listen so enjoyable.

A Delightful Cowboy Christmas Story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet, well-written book as I as driving cross country. The book has all the ingredients: sweetness, sadness, multiple problems, pain, restitution, and love. Narration was excellent. If you like stories of cowboys n the Western U.S., you’ll enjoy Wrestlin’ Christmas!

Will bring tears to your eyes a powerful read

When KC's son spoke

Any additional comments?

I have read or listened to this whole series I really have enjoyed them but I do believe so far this one is my favorite. Life is so tough when you lose the things you think are important you may go in a direction that isn't always right. We tend to forget others have it worse than we do and only think of ourselves as Cort does. This author gives you a wonderful amazing read of Cort finding his way back from drinking and a family he thought he would never have. This story is so touching it will break your heart and leaving you smiling with tears in your eyes. Ms. Hatfield gives you a read full of pain, anger, and lost. When you do not think you have more to lose you find you do as a family walks away in hopes of getting their love one to come back to them.

KC has had a hard life from childhood to adult she doesn't ask for much just lives one day as it comes. She lost her parents, her husband and part of her child now she faces loosing her ranch. Her marriage wasn't bad but it wasn't good and she vows no man will ever get close to her again. Sometimes life has it's own thoughts as it brings Cort to her door she finds he isn't only a handy man but works wonders with her son and her heart. As they grow close she must decide what is best for her family. It might surprise you the twist this author gives as the fight for love begins.

When Cort got hurt and had to give up the rodeo he thinks his life is over. He makes decisions his family isn't happy with. One too many nights out drinking and not facing life puts him in a tail spin when his family hits him with some major facts. Being dropped off at his best friend's door he goes through the motions until his friend sends him to help the widow. This is a day that will change his life as he takes on the run down ranch, the widow and her silent son. Things are about to get heated up with misunderstanding, pointing fingers and the love of one child.

Luke Andreen did an outstanding job on this narrations. When it came time for tears to fall you could hear them in his voice. There was a place at the end where Cort got chocked up that you could really hear the tears in his voice. This was a very touching scene for me and almost had me in tears as well. This narrator gives you a very touching listen as he brings to live the many wonderful voice of all the different characters. There are no background noises just a smooth rich audio that reaches in and grabs your heartstrings. There was a time or two where you might be able to tell he took a break as his tone gets a little higher. No way does it take away from the audio and you almost miss it. I totally enjoyed listening to him with his rich deep voice. I am really looking forward to listening to more audios from this narrator.

Ms. Hatfield give you a very well written compelling story that will bring tears to your eyes more than once with this wonderful read of heartbreak as these three people find a way to bring Christmas and wishes to the holiday season. One little boy who hasn't spoken a word for years will pull you in and take your heart. He is just a sweetheart that will be a wonderful man. You get to revisit some wonderful characters from the last book and see how their lives have changed. Ms. Hatfield stories just get better and better as she takes you on a wonderful journey of broken hearts and putting them back together again. She brings you tons of smiles in this clean read as she puts these two people in some passionate scenes. I doubt you can read this story without it touching your heart. The only thing I would have liked to have known was what made the little boy never talk after his father was killed.

The ending this author gives you will bring even the strongest to their knees as you wipe a tear from your eye. I really loved this story with strong characters that are broken but won't give in. If you haven't read anything from this author you really should give Wrestlin' Christmas a try. This author has become one of my favorite in a short time. I can't wait to read more from her and her touching reads.

My Musings

I thoroughly enjoyed the little boy and that aspect of the story. The plot is entertaining as well, but for me, the pacing is off. I wasn’t sure it would ever end. Also I wasn’t thrilled with the narrator. Happy reading/listening!

Narration has some background sounds

There are a few places where there is noise in the background almost like a vibration of some kind. Narrator has a pleasant voice but the occasional noises can be distracting or uncomfortable when listening with my headphones.
