Book Review - A COWBOY STATE OF MIND by Jennie Marts


A Cowboy State of Mind



The town of Creedence, Colorado gets involved in horse rescue in bestseller Jennie Marts' brilliant new series

Scarred and battered loner Zane Taylor has a gift with animals, particularly horses, but he's at a total loss when it comes to knowing how to handle women. Even though he's sworn off love, he can't seem to stay away from Bryn Callahan. He's known for being a horse whisperer, but can't seem to find his voice at all where Bryn is concerned.

Bryn Callahan has a heart for strays, but she is through trying to save damaged men. She vows to only date nice guys, which is a category that does not include Zane Taylor. Too bad he's the only one who sets her pulse racing every time she's around him.

Starting a horse rescue ranch wasn't in Bryn's plan, but try telling that to the assembly of abandoned animals that have found their way to her doorstep. And when a chance encounter with a horse headed for slaughter brings Zane and Bryn together, they find themselves given a chance to save not just the horse, but maybe each other...






4 Stars

This book is the beginning of a new series for Jennie Marts. If you are looking for a small town, sweet slow burn romance look no further. Wonderful characters with great chemistry, and a countryside full of animals.

Bryn is a sweet girl with a heart of gold, always trying to help someone else out when she could maybe be the one needing help a little more. Happy with her life in her small town, waiting tables at the diner just trying hard to make ends meet. Doing her best to keep the family farm now that her parents are gone. Never in a million years did she see herself starting a horse rescue farm but she just couldn't stand to see that poor horse in distress and know it was headed for death.

Zane has struggled most of his life, growing in an abusive home. Thinking he found love young only to have it ripped away from him by death. Convinced that he is no good for anyone he has kept everyone at arms length. Not staying in one place for too long. With his dad not well, he finds himself back in his home town helping to care for the old man. He wasn't expecting Bryn or the draw to her that he can't seem to hold back. Seeing she was struggling, he steps up to help her where he can.

Neither Bryn or Zane were looking for love. But the more time they spend together the more the see grows. Will Zane let go of his past and give this a chance? Can Bryn convince him that he is worth the risk?
