Book Review: Cowboy's Christmas Nanny by Clara Pines

                          For this review, I chose Cowboy's Christmas Nanny by Clara Pines.

I picked this e-book from the selection of Kindle Unlimited books.

---------------------------------------------------
Here is a brief description from Goodreads:
He has all he wants for Christmas.
But she’s got what he needs.

Shane Cassidy’s wish list is short this year. The young widower just wants his little daughter to be happy, and his quiet son to come out of his room once in a while. Shane is determined to be there every minute for his kids, but when he runs into big trouble with the family horse farm around Christmas time, he realizes they just might need a helping hand.

It turns out, hiring a new nanny might wind him up in a whole new kind of trouble.

Natalie Bell, his best friend’s little sister, is home from the city and looking for work. He can’t turn down the sweet, feisty girl he’s always had a secret crush on. And he certainly can’t lay a hand on Chris Bell’s little sister.

But how is he supposed to resist falling for her, when he sees the way she loves his kids?

Shane’s past was touched by tragedy, and his present is full of challenges. And Natalie has some broken dreams of her own. Will the Cassidy crew scare the new nanny away before she can get settled in? Or might Natalie be the key to making their new house finally feel like a home for the holidays?

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time.
From a widower discovering he has feelings for his kids’ nanny, to a soldier finding out about a secret baby, to a single dad falling in love with his child’s preschool teacher, you’ll lose yourself in these feel-good books celebrating love, family, and the very special small town community of Trinity Falls.
---------------------------------------------------

Natalie is back home because her grandmother was sick. Her brother is in the military.  She needs a job.  Shane has known Natalie as his best friend’s little sister.  Now he’s seeing her in a new light.  Oh my! Will these two fall for one another?

Release Blitz: Firefighter's Fake Fiancee by Clara Pines

 

Firefighter's Fake Fiancee by Clara Pines releases on May 9th!

FREE with Kindle Unlimited



His ring isn’t the only thing wrapped around her finger…

Ashton Beck has been in love with his best friend’s little sister forever, but Lucy was always off limits. Now they’re both grown up, and he’s finally back home in small town Trinity Falls, working his dream job as a firefighter. When he hears that her engagement was broken off, Ashton knows the time to declare his feelings has finally come.

But a tragic accident leaves Ashton suddenly caring for a toddler before he has a chance.

Becoming Kaylee’s dad is the best thing that has ever happened to Ashton. But changing diapers, preparing tiny meals, and trying to convince Kaylee’s social worker that he’s truly worthy of adopting the little one all keep him too busy to offer Lucy the fairytale romance he knows she deserves.

When a chance encounter around the holidays has him claiming to be her new fiancé, the wrong people hear about it, and the two decide they have no choice but to keep the ruse going. But as their fake engagement becomes entangled with real feelings, even those who are in on the secret realize something more is happening.

Will the two open their eyes to the Christmas miracle that is right in front of them? Or will Lucy and Ashton be the last to know that the only people they are fooling with this fake engagement are themselves?

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time.

Release Boost: Cowboy's Cafe Crush by Clara Pines


Cowboy's Cafe Crush by Clara Pines is available now!


FREE with Kindle Unlimited

He’s keeping his fortune a secret and pretending to date his crush. But if this city kid-turned cowboy wants to land true love this holiday season, he might just have to lay all his cards on the table.

Holly Fields loves her small town, her job at the local cafĂ©, and even her gruff boss. But life has handed her a difficult year. Her big sister passed away, breaking her heart. And Holly now has custody of her beloved niece. Making sure the bright eight-year-old has love, support, and everything she needs is a privilege that is worth any challenge she might bump into along the way. But when Holly’s mom constantly voices her fears that it’s too much for a young woman to do alone, it feels a bit like she’s just waiting for Holly to mess up.

In a moment of weakness, Holly hints that she’s seeing someone, even though dating is the last thing on her mind. And when a surprise holiday visit leaves her in the lurch, help arises from the most unexpected source.

Julian Cabrera just made a fortune selling a tech invention so specialized even his own family doesn’t understand it. Moving to small town Trinity Falls to be near his sister Angel gives him time to get his head around his new financial position before he has to tell anyone else about it. He works at Cassidy Farm in the mornings and spends his afternoons at the local cafĂ©, trying to come up with his next project – something meaningful that might actually make the world a better place.

When Julian overhears that his favorite waitress is in a jam, he steps in to help her without hesitation. After all, he has admired her kind spirit and pretty smile since his very first visit to the coffee shop. The opportunity to spend more time with the sweet young woman and her exuberant niece is too much for the cowboy-in-training to resist.

But as the holiday season unfurls, will the two be able to keep up the ruse? Or is fake dating your real crush too hard after all?

Release Boost: Cowboy's Secret Baby by Clara Pines

Cowboy's Secret Baby by Clara Pines releases on December 5th!

FREE with Kindle Unlimited



Can a secret son and a second chance at love show this wounded quarterback there’s life after football?

Ian Cassidy’s chance to play pro football was shattered along with his shoulder in a terrible accident. But his heart was broken before that, when his college sweetheart dropped him and disappeared without a word.

Returning to his hometown with a life-changing injury instead of a seven-figure contract is humiliating for the former star quarterback. But it’s missing Faith that keeps him up at night.

So, when she appears at Cassidy Farm just in time for the holidays with an adorable little son, and tells Ian that baby Connor is his, he feels like he’s going from the bench to the championships.

After all, how many people get a second chance at true love?

Faith is still madly in love with Ian Cassidy, but she ran from him for a reason, and she’s scared that his declarations now are just an attempt to do the right thing. Seeing him every day and participating in all the charming Christmas events happening in his picturesque small town is exquisite torture. But baby Connor is her whole world and she is determined never to do anything that could hurt his chances to be part of the extended Cassidy family.

Can the tortured cowboy find his way back into Faith’s heart? Or will she put their future as a couple on ice before he can find a way to win back her love, and give baby Connor the family he deserves?

Trinity Falls Sweet Romance is all about finding family – one clean & wholesome romance at a time.

From an ex-football star finding out about a secret baby, to a reserved tech genius who opens his heart to a small-town barista and her adopted daughter, you’ll lose yourself in these feel-good books celebrating love, family, and the very special small town community of Trinity Falls.
