The
Cowboy of Valentine Valley
Valentine
Valley Series
By: Emma Cane
Welcome to Valentine Valley, where the cowboys have many talents
and love is waiting around every corner . . .
Ever since a heated late-night kiss—that
absolutely should not have happened—cowboy Josh Thalberg makes former Hollywood
bad girl Whitney Winslow's pulse beat faster. But when she decides to use his
gorgeous leatherwork in her new upscale lingerie shop, Leather & Lace,
she's determined to keep their relationship strictly professional . . . even if
she wants so much more.
Josh has never met a challenge he isn't up
for. Which is probably why he allowed Whitney to persuade him to take the sexy
publicity photo that went viral—and now has every woman in America knocking
down his door . . . every woman except the one he can't get out of his head.
But how to convince a reformed bad girl that
some rules are worth breaking?

Whitney
Winslow is opening a new store in Valentine Valley. Leather and Lace will offer
lingerie and leather jewelry. Josh Thalberg is a cowboy, leather craftsman, and
stunning. He offers his work to different shops and works on his family’s
ranch. He and Whitney have a history and are trying not to repeat it. This time
it’s all business, except the stolen kisses and secret glances. They travel to
Aspen to visit with another shopkeeper. Whitney pretends to be his agent. The
woman asks to photograph Josh to help sell the leather bags. She suggests he
pose with a few shirt buttons undone. The picture goes viral and a star is
born. A Facebook page and fan websites sprout up. Josh hopes it will all die
down soon. He’s surprised to find out who’s fanning the flames of his
celebrity. His family is very close and live in the same town. Whitney’s is
wealthy and not supportive of her store, but they arrive looking for her help.
Leave all the lingerie behind and return to New York to run the family
business. She’d hoped to be asked when she graduated from college, but was
snubbed. Now, she likes her independence and loves Josh. Why are hard decisions
so easy to make?
Whitney
and Josh make a perfect opposites attract couple. The only thing they have in
common is each other. The secondary characters, especially the older widows in
the town, add humor and a sense of belonging. This is the third book in a
series. They should be read in order. Earlier episodes are referred to in the
book that impact Josh’s and Whitney’s relationship. Plus characters have
dealings with the couple too. They were fleshed out in the earlier books. This
a sweet read and the image of Josh’s picture provides plenty of heat.
