Lanie
Cupids and Cowboys 2; by Cynthia Woolf
Cynthia Woolf did
an awesome job with this story! I love how Lanie is careful about her future
but willing to open her heart.
She takes us
back to Colorado and to the Monroe’s ranch. Lanie is the daughter (ok adopted
daughter) of Carter and Samantha (that story is in Carter). They love her so much
and want to know her future is set. So, when a boy (man) that they helped raise
calls for help they jump to do that. That man is Ben Carleton, and he needs
someone to watch is son while he hunts down the murder of his late wife.
Ben is a U.S.
Marshal now (but only because he is looking for the killer of is wife). Just
before she was killed, he found out that she was not being faithful, then she
was dead. The man he thought killed her was her lover. Ben has followed him to Golden,
CO where he grew up. He asked for help from the people that raised him and he considers
friends and they said yes. He thought that he would leave is son with them for
a bit and finish his man hunt. What he got was that a new wife, and in-laws.
Lanie is very
headstrong. She wants the ranch she has grown up on to be her future. What she does
not plan for is a husband, especially after her ex-fiancé left her for a saloon
girl. Then up rides her childhood crush Ben and she did not recognize him and
sent him away. When she tells her father, he lets her know he was waiting for
Ben and that when he comes back, he wants to see him. Now she is embarrassed at
not knowing who he was, and not sure why he is here.
Ben comes back
and this is where both find out Carters marriage plan. Now Ben will track down
the killer, Lanie will watch her new son and they will together save the ranch
for Lanie’s future, Right? Ok maybe it is harder than that. Life is all good
and Love wins all? Guess you need to read and find out.
