I liked it. It is a clean romance, but I have nothing new to add to the reviews published to date.

Third Times a Charm: Terrence Family Romance book 3 is by Sarah Gay. This third book is the best of the books so far. It is certainly romantic but is a wonderful, clean way. It is definitely a case of mistaken identity.
Meri Terrence had decided it was time to come closer to home. She ran several hotels in Costa Rica; but when Zee moved to park City, Utah, she decided she needed to be closer to family. She wanted to build a new hotel here in Midway. She had found the perfect spot in a quaint B&B and entered negotiations to purchase it. She didn’t tell anyone that the inn would be torn down to provide room for a new hotel. She was very close to closing when Emory Fairbanks stepped in to try to buy it out from under her. However, Meri didn’t seem worried as she still thought everything was in order. Now to enjoy the town and all the cowboys around.
Emory Fairbanks wanted the B&B; but he wanted to simply redo them and keep the beauty of the B&B as it was. He had to meet Belle Terrence and flatter her then buy it out from under her. However, when he ran into Meri, he had already seen the woman who must be Belle. He wasn’t impressed with her so knew he had a chance. He did meet Meri dressed in her cowgirl finery and so Cal went to purchase some for himself so he could get her attention. He never used Emory except in business so she knew him as Cal. What will she do when she finds out he plans to purchase the hotel?

A quick and fun read
If you have a couple of hours to spare and need something light and enjoyable to read, this is your book. Learn to love with Meri and Cal, and experience the delightful identity confusion they stumble through. Also, if your mouth isn’t watering for macaroons by the end of this book (and there is a recipe included!) there is something wrong with you! 😉

This is a DNF. I read to about 22%. I am not sure what I thought the title implied but it wasn’t two people dressing like cowboys/-girls. This is definitely not an author for me and not a book for me. I flat out disliked this.

Great read
A wonderful addition to the series. Meri and Cal make a fantastic couple and I loved the counterfeit cowboy. It was nice catching up with all the other Terrences. I would recommend this story to any reader that enjoys clean romances.
