To review

Ugh, Layla had the worst mum! I really have to start with that, the worst mum!

Layla bids on a bachelor during a bachelor caution, because she knows her friends need the money for her charity. Oh and the bachelor is beyond dreamy. Even if she would want a second date that is real she knows she wont stand a chance. She is nerdy, a virgin, and has a horrible mum. Awww, poor Layla, she was so great! And I wanted others to see that too. Her horrible mother really brought her self esteem down.

Jack is just doing it for charity. He is sweet, and what more do I need to say. He is sweet! He falls for her, they have more dates, and live happily ever after.

There is some drama concerning her mother (that horrible person!) I wanted Layla to cut her off, and will she? You have to listen and see.

I liked this one. Clare writes wonderful and sweet cowboy stories. Happiness, a tad bit of drama and great people.

I have listened to Abby before and I enjoy her narrations. She does them well, and she is great with cowboy stories.

Jack Watson doesn't want anything to do with the dating scene in Painted Barrel, Wyoming, but when his sister-in-law guilts him into joining a bachelor auction, Jack can't say no to a charity event. He's not totally heartless. And if all the winner wants is an extra ranch hand for a few days, he can do that. Of course, Jack changes his mind as soon as he meets the winner, shy Layla. As the local accountant, Layla isn't used to being noticed by men. She's sure not the type to bid on a bachelor. But when she tells her mom she's bidding on someone she has a crush on-and her mom shows up to check-she has no choice but to offer for the gruff cowboy. It's for a good cause after all . . . Neither one of them thought the auction would be a success. But Layla finds it hard to keep her hands off the cowboy, and Jack falls for her sweet smile and wild sense of humor. True love should run smoothly, right? Except Layla's got a secret, and Jack's right in the line of fire. Does she risk everything for her Valentine cowboy or does she betray those closest to her? Contains mature themes.
