The Story:
After losing everything she held dear, Abby never wants to love again. But a certain cowboy may just spur her to wonder if love might be worth the risk. 

Running from a past that haunts her, Abby Knightly is drawn to the cozy town of Wishing Springs, Texas. Maybe this small town could offer hope and healing and a future for Abby . . . if she’s brave enough to reach out and take it by the reins.

Bo Monahan isn’t interested in the new romantic destination his little town has become—or the women who might be looking at him like he’s their next Mr. Right. Between taking care of his Pops and his growing stirrup business, he isn’t looking for serious romantic commitments. But when the infant son he never knew about shows up at his doorstep, his world is turned upside down.

This confirmed bachelor might not think he needs a wife, but he sure needs help. Even Abby can see that, and despite her best efforts to keep her distance, she can’t help but be drawn to this new father-son duo. As Abby throws herself into helping Bo navigate fatherhood, hope sparks between them, revealing that maybe, just maybe, they can navigate their dark pasts and emerge together into a future as bright as the Texas sun itself.

My Thoughts:
Contemporary romances aren't necessarily my go to reads when I want to escape in a book. You might say I'm a bit of a historical romance junkie. Books like Counting on a Cowboy, however, are winning me over to fictional worlds set in the here and now. Clopton always impresses me with her sweet romances, and while I thought the first book in the Four of Hearts Ranch series was good, Counting on a Cowboy is a gem!

Cowboy Bo and haunted Abby are certainly two very flawed humans trying to cope with past tragedies and mistakes. Their realization that they may have a future together in spite of their pasts is both inspiring and sweet. The book had a more serious tone than Betting on Hope, but those Monahan men sure do make for great stories no matter what types of romance float your boat!

Even if you haven't read the first book in the series, you don't have to worry about getting lost with this one. It's a stand-alone story. Wanting to keep those Tuesday blues at bay? Definitely consider this book!
