PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Ruggle's sappy contemporary romantic thriller (after Through the Fire), set in a chilly Rocky Mountain December, a lonely outsider finds the spirit of the holidays on a Christmas tree ranch. Camille Brandt has always been a misfit but has made a productive life for herself in small Borne, Colo., as a folk artist. When her high school crush, firefighter Steve Springfield, returns to his brothers' Christmas tree ranch as a widower with four children, Camille is drawn into the carefree and affectionate family life she has always yearned for. Steve is an endearing single father whose love for his children does not prevent him from being a sexy romantic interest. Shy Camille becomes even more awkward when she realizes the handsome cowboy is romantically interested in her. To complicate matters, as she begins to relax and reciprocate his attention, she becomes the target of a mysterious campaign of threats. The lackluster suspense plot mars this holiday romance, and there is much less derring-do than in Ruggle's K9 and search and rescue series, but she still includes enough warmth and affection to satisfy her fans.
Customer Reviews
Perfect Christmas Romance
I love Christmas I love single dads and I love finding new authors so this was a win win for me and i have to say I really don’t know why I haven’t come across Katie Ruggle before now because Rocky Mountain Cowboy Christmas is the perfect start to her new series Rocky Cowboys.
Steve the hero in this book is a cowboy, firefighter and a widower with 4 amazing kids and he now works on the family ranch selling Christmas Trees.
Camille the heroine is a bit of a hermit and is most happy when she is locked away making art out of scrap metal and other bits and pieces she can recycle.
Everything about this book has great feels, the kids are smart, funny and have some amazing one liners, the adults have chemistry but have a few mountains to climb before they can find their HEA and it’s set in a beautiful Christmas wonderland that will have you wishing you could spent the holiday season with the Springfield’s on their Colorado Christmas Tree Farm. This author has an amazing talent of painting pictures with words because she left me feeling like I had visited the farm and the Springfield’s had become my friends but I wanted more and I didn’t want this book to end so all I’m going to leave you with is please one click this must read Christmas romance.
A great story
5 star review of Rocky Mountain Cowboy Christmas (Rocky Mountain Cowboys #1) by Katie Ruggle
Katie Ruggle is a new author to me and I have no idea why that is. I loved her style of writing, her characters and the story line.
I loved this book. From the first to the last chapter I just loved everything about single dad Steve Springfield and Camille Brandt both separately and together.
This was a slow burn romance, that built throughout and had me cheering when Steve and the socially awkward Camille,finally got together .
Steve’ s children almost stole the book from Steve and Camille, they had some great lines which had me racking up. The love they had for each other and their siblings was heartfelt.
I love the Christmas season and this book certainly got me in the spirit. I will be looking at other books by Katie Ruggle ASAP and cannot wait to see what she has in store for this series.
