A Cowboy to Keep

When Ali Thibeaux realizes her late mothers camera that she pawned was sold she thinks all hope is lost until help comes from an unlikely source. Adam Wolfe is only looking for someone to help him with cooking and cleaning after he took his niece in to raise. When he mistakes Ali as a candidate he offers her the job not expecting any complications. When an attraction begins between the two can the keep everything professional or will the attraction win out? I liked this book all the way till the last chapter where i felt it ended abruptly. I enjoyed the main characters and how well they were written.

Ali a photographer, is on the run and arrives in Marietta to find her half biological sister. She had to sell her camera and now Adam has bought it, all she wants is her camera back but Adam has different ideas. Adam is a recluse, raising his niece. He hires Ali to be a nanny and help around the house. Soon Ali has turned the house into a home. Loved how Ali and Adam's relationship built and grew. Loved Carrie, Ali was so patient and good with her. How can you not love Boomer the dog, love animals in the story. With an element of mystery on why Ali is the run, makes for a perfect read. Love the Canadays!

LOVED this story!! Ali Thibeauxis on the run and hiding from her past. When she shows up at Adam Wolfe's ranch hoping to find her camera she stumbles upon not only a job but a great place to hideaway. Adam is gruff and reclusive but he needs her help with his niece. So the three of them settle into a nice comfortable arrange with the attraction between Adam and Ali growing everyday. Things seem perfect until Ali's past catches up to her. A great read you shouldn't miss. I recommend it.

I truly enjoyed A Cowboy to Keep by Barbara Ankrum, the fourth book in her Canadays of Montana series. Drifter Ali Thibeaux arrives in Marietta to find her biological half-sister and photograph Olivia’s wedding. All before Ali can be found by her stalker and endanger those around her. There is much more to Adam Wolfe than being a rancher with burn scars. He hires Ali to manager his household, cook and help with his fourteen year old niece, Carrie. Ali is not deterred by Adam’s scars and lets him know. Also, she is able to relate and understand Carrie as she too lost her mother at a similar age. Adam believes that Ali is not telling the entire truth about her situation and tries to learn the truth before it’s too late. There is definitely chemistry and attraction between these two who are unsure about acting on it. Ali trusts no one and is torn about trusting Adam. I really enjoyed reading this book and had trouble putting this book down, reading it in one day. Ms. Ankrum is a wonderful storyteller and she drew me into this story, not letting me go until I read the last page. I definitely recommend this book to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
