Alexis Grayson is good
at looking after herself—she's been doing it all her life. So what if
she's alone and pregnant? She'll cope! But gorgeous cowboy Connor Madsen
seems determined to take care of her. And Alexis can help him—he needs a
temporary wife; she needs somewhere to live until the baby's born. A
short-term marriage will solve all their difficulties!
As Alexis gets to know the
courageous, honorable Connor, she realizes that she might have made the
biggest mistake of her life. Because all this wife-for-hire wants is a
marriage for real!
Hired by the Cowboy was another freebie I picked up, and I'm not sure why! I don't think I've ever read a 'Harlequin Romance' and wasn't quite sure what to expect!! I decided before I started reading that if it was corny and smutty, I wasn't going to keep reading it. I'm glad I read it... it was far from either! Like probably most romance novels, there was an element of predictability about it, being that you know it is a love story. However, I thought the author developed the characters very well and developed their love story over time. It is a relatively short book (145 pages on my Nook anyways), but I was really pleasantly surprised with this story!! I guess I might keep my eye out for more Harlequin Romances in the future. :)
