After reading A Thorn in the Saddle I absolutely had to go back and get whole story on the Pleasant family from the beginning, so here we are with Zach’s book: A Cowboy to Remember. Actually, I’d like to call this Evie’s book, since she’s really the most likeable one of the pair.
This book features Evie Buchanan, a celebrity chef who finds herself without her memories after an encounter with an old co-worker, and Zach Pleasant, luxury ranch owner and former rodeo star, brother to Jesse Pleasant from book 3. This book is great - hugely plot driven with lots of hilarious banter. Rebekah Weatherspoon writes *the best* friend groups. Her friends never fail to crack me up and they are always so beautifully reliable and honest with her MCs. For a Weatherspoon it’s pretty low heat, but the story is compelling so I still didn’t want to put this down. If you’re into cowboy hats? This one’s for you. 🤠
Zach and Evie have *history* but of course she is unaware of it, so their relationship is a little fraught. Okay, it’s a lot fraught, but I loved how much Jesse and Miss Leona (Zach’s grandmother) and Evie’s friends watched out for her. And I adored being along for the ride as Evie quite literally remembered herself (and figured out things like texting and Instagram DMs).
👍🏻Recommended for fans of cowboys, big family drama, reality TV, cooking shows and awesome friend groups.
