Cowboy Crushin' (The Dalton Boys Book 3) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 641 ratings

Five brides for five brothers…at least that’s the deal the Daltons have struck with their boys. Each son must marry in order to inherit a piece of the ranch they love so much.

Shelby has pulled up roots—again—and taken her funds from her latest divorce settlement to open a candy shop in Vixen, Texas. She wants better for her son than new men parading through his life because his mom can’t get herself together. The small town is the perfect place to avoid male interest—mainly because there aren’t many available.

When Witt spies the curvaceous new candy shop owner, he suddenly has a sweet tooth. Trouble is, so does every other man in the vicinity, including his brother Kade. Shelby seems to crave male attention, and they flock to her like bees to honey-flavored hardtack, though nothing she says or does seems genuine. Who is she really?

Burning to uncover her mysteries, Witt spends so much time in town that the ranch suffers. Afraid another man will snag her up, Witt sweeps her and her son away.

The Daltons feel like the family she’s never had and the gorgeous cowboy demands entry to her heart, but the fortress she’s built has deep foundations. Will she ever be ready to give her whole self?

    This is a great novella featuring Witt. He falls hard for a new woman in tow, Shelb, who opened a candy shop and is attracting attention from lots of single men in the area. Shelby and her 5 year old son are running from her previous life which includes 2 ex husbands and 5 ex fiancés. Her son is experiencing nightmares and want let her touch him but both blossom from the attention of Witt and the Dalton family. Can Shelby trust this won’t turn out like all of her previous relationships? Witt has his work cut out for hit.

    Cowboy Crushin' is another good episode in the Dalton Boys quest to land brides and a piece of their future on the ranch. Witt was yet another drool-worthy and rather perceptive fellow when it comes to figuring out the best way to snare the fickle Shelby and her young son Alex.

    Unfortunately I couldn't really warm up to Shelby, not with her history of hooking up with everything in slacks or jean, and a propensity to lose herself by trying to please them, a trait that carries over to her new friend helping out at the store. That kind of personality paired with an alpha male who recognizes her problem didn't leave a lot of leeway for working out details of a relationship fast-tracked by circumstances. His alpha-male personality and her subservience really didn't track well for having her learn a different set of behaviors you need to make a relationship last.

    I usually don't care for munchkins in romances since they tend to dominate and distract from the romantic elements, but Alex's reluctance to connect with people actually added to the story, and to Witt's persistence in having everything work out. On the other hand, I needed more to the story to buy into Shelby coming to grips with her issues and live up to Witt's expectations. In spite of that, I'm looking forward to the next two in the series.

    Did you ever wish for that cowboy to sweep you off your feet? Make you feel like the most important, worthy person in hiss life and love your kids like they were his own. Then Witt is the perfect cowboy. He loves with his full heart and wants you just as you are. I fell in love right along side and wished the story wouldn't end. A great read.
