Description

Having a father is a big responsibility.

And finding him a wife is a challenge eight-year-old Becky Jones takes seriously. Ex-rodeo cowboy Taggart Jones is adamant. No marriage. Been there. Done that.

Not even if Becky's dream candidate is her beautiful, blonde teacher, Felicity Albright, who knows about barrettes, patching up scrapes, and hates carrots as much as his daughter. Taggart’s still not interested. Much.

What's a daughter to do? Becky’s nothing if not ingenious, and she’s determined to convince a stubborn Taggart and a bemused Felicity that they really have met their match.

Gutsy

What a gutsy teacher. Take bull riding classes to prove a point? Masterful but gutsy and a little on the dumb side. But it worked. Loved the HEA!!
Enjoyable

Nice romance without overly descriptive sexual scenes. I always like to also learn from what I read along with the enjoyment. This author's analogy of teaching bull riding to life lessons was one I would not of thought of. You couldn't help but pull for and love Becky.

Really liked it. Had funny parts, enjoyed those, had some lessons learned also. It never amazes me more that no matter how long you a e out of school, you are constantly learning something new everyday. Thanks for a good read.

This was a fun story.
Felicity is the new teacher in town, and a widow. Taggart is a divorced single dad and a former bull rider who is afraid of loving again. And Becky is Taggart's meddling daughter who, with the help of her friend Susannah, is trying to pick a new mother for herself, no matter what her father wants.
I loved all of the characters in this book. Becky and Susannah really were quite methodical in their attempts to push Felicity and Taggart together. But I think even without the meddling, eventually they would've come to notice each other. It's a small town after all. I especially loved how dedicated Felicity is to her students and how hard she works to set a good example for them. She would do anything for her students and it made her extra likable.
WOW!

I fell in love with Taggart Jones, when he took Becky on the road with him and was raising her with the help of his rodeo buddies. He showed his devotion and responsibility to his baby daughter.

Than Becky's mischief in making Taggart aware of Felicity was totally hysterical and the way he kept putting his foot in his mouth, whileFelicity's strength and courage at the end to show up Orrin and prove her point about teaching styles. WOW!!

Taggert is my favorite cowboy in the Tanner series.

The Cowboy and the Kid by Anne McAllister is book number four in the Tanner Brothers series. This is ex-rodeo cowboy Taggart Jones and school teacher Felicity Albright's story.

Taggart's wife left him to raise their daughter alone. He has sworn off of marriage. But, his daughter Becky has other ideas. This is where Felicity, Becky's teacher, comes in. Felicity's husband was killed in an accident. When Felicity's Uncle Fred died he left her his house in Elmer, Montana. Felicity thought this was the perfect place for her to start living life again but not sure if she can love again.

I love cowboy romances and Taggart and Felicity's story was wonderful! This was an enjoyable, sensuous, and fun romance. Taggart is a stubborn cowboy that you can't help but love. Will he allow his stubbornness to lose a chance at love? Felicity is a strong woman and I loved her character. The supporting characters were great too.

This can be read as a standalone but you will want to go back and read the other books in the series. This is one of my favorites. A great book when you need an escape!

FYI, includes mature content. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

This was a fun read with a retired bull fighting single dad, a matchmaking daughter, and a teacher that would make the perfect new mom! Taggert was happy with the way his life was going. His daughter Becky didn't agree. She thinks they need a woman in their life and her antics to get her father and her teacher, Felicity Albright, together was completely entertaining.

I highly recommend this one.
