His Fresh Start Cowboy is the first in a new series by AM Arthur. That said, this one is kind of a spin-off from her Clean Slate Ranch series, so there is some crossover in the beginning. Once Hugo gets to Woods Ranch, this series is off and running with a second chance for Hugo and Brand. The romance is a slow burn, and the storyline is intense and emotional, especially on Hugo's part. His backstory as well as some things that happen in the present absolutely broke my heart. Brand's insecurity about coming out as bisexual is the source of relationship angst for this pair, but the chemistry is there in spades, and both these guys are so darn lovable.
The book is well-written, the characters are likable, and the story is a mix of emotional, sexy, and sweet. We've been having a cold spell around here, which is perfect for curling up with a good book. What better way to do that than with a hot cowboy romance?
