Book Review: Who Wants to Marry A Cowboy? by Abigail Sharpe

“Love isn’t easy. It takes work. It takes trust.”

Abigail Sharpe, Who Wants to Marry a Cowboy?

Review:

Winding down my reading to finish out the year, I thought the Love Match series would be the perfect set of books to pick up. First up is Who Wants to Marry a Cowboy? I found the title intriguing. 

Ainsley and Cecelia have an overbearing mother to say the least. After she sets Ainsley up on a cruise with Edward, Ainsley happily trades places with her sister who is the one truly in love with the man. This means Ainsley finds herself on a ranch in Wyoming in a Batchelor-style dating competition. The prize? Riley Pommer. 

I found the book well-written and it maintained a good pace. As far as plot and content are concerned, it didn’t grasp me but that’s completely a matter of taste/preference. I never got into dating games or reality shows. Still, I felt bad and frustrated for Ainsley and wanted to see her get a happy ending. For that, I enjoyed the book. I also liked the side romances, though I ran hot and cold with Edward. 

I’m curious what the next book will bring! 

Likes & Dislikes:

What I liked:

• Characters I could sympathize with.
• Great writing.

What I didn’t like:

• Spicier than I prefer to read.
• The dating competition was meh for me. Just not my thing.

Afterthoughts:

A huge thanks to Abigail Sharpe for gifting me a copy of this book at Orlando Reads Books!
