A Blind Date With Her Cowboy Billionaire Boss is another great story from the hands of Hannah Hart. A story of two hurting souls that had suffered loss and grief was eating them up and they were stuck. They felt like love would never happen again for them. When Shelby applied for a job working on Colt's guest ranch he hired her for his nanny. He was a widower at 29, and had a 4 year old and a 8 month old and a mother that said it was time for him to take care of his children, she was leaving. But Colt's grief was making him not want to be around them much as they reminded him of his late wife. So now Shelby is being a nanny for his children and she can't shake the grief from her own baby dying and her husband cheating on her and leaving her. The panic attacks are so real but she keeps it a secret. Love has a way to heal hearts and souls lost in grief. But be ready for the flood of emotions this book sends you through. It is an emotional war they fight but the kids work their magic on both of them. One word made a big difference in both their lives. Ellie's first word, Mama.

I found this second novella in a six-book contemporary romance series to be an entertaining, well-constructed, and a well-told story. I was pleased to see that the author not only met the standard for clean romantic writing; she also maintained the standard of protagonists who demonstrated high moral standards. I was highly impressed by the manner with which the author treated the devastation Colt felt as his beloved wife died giving birth to his second child – a daughter. Not only that, but the reality of the effect the SIDS death of Shelby’s infant son was heart-rending. I was impressed with the way the author used these significant life events to build a positive relationship between Colt and Shelby. Unfortunately, the five-star award earned by Ms. Hart was snatched away due to the plethora of editorial errors that remained undetected in the final product. Every one of those errors should have been discovered before publication had a competent editor simply read the manuscript. Since the author is ultimately responsible for the finished product, I award only four-stars for what should have been a five-star award.

Good story, but needs work!
I enjoyed the main characters and plot. However, there is no possible way this book went through a decent proofing process. There were extensive word usage, spelling, and grammatical errors. Flow, development of some of the plot points, and the epilogue also could have used more work. At times I felt more like I was reading a draft. I feel like there are always chunks of the author's books that are great. Unfortunately, I have yet to read one that felt like a fully developed, edited and proofed, professional, final product. If you don't mind stumbling through numerous errors, it may be an enjoyable read you find worth your time.

Ms Hart needs a proofreader! Her own first name is misspelled as Hana twice in her OWN book.
Two characters are mixed up and other typos arise to jar the reader...window instead of widow, etc.
It’s a good story, if you can get past errors that an editor or proofreader should have caught.

Very good book.
I really liked this book and at the same time was a little upset. I am so use to reading Christian books it kind of caught me off guard. I am VERY THANKFUL that the is a clean romance novel. But I also think that if they had had the love of GOD in their lives things would have been better. I did so enjoy the book!!

Sweet story
The Brooks family is interesting to follow. Hanna Hart has given each brother and the one sister their own personality and story. Colt and Shelby both know heartbreak and loss. Can working as nanny for Colt 's two children help or hurt Shelby 's recovery from the loss of her son. A very sweet and poignant story.

Wonderful story
I loved the story line and Shelbys struggle with her pain. Good book but whoever the editor was did not proofread too well. There were several incorrect words and misspelled words used.

Sweet lovely story!
As heartwarming as this story is, it's also sad. But it leaves us with hope that the characters can overcome their past and move on. I wish the author had included God in the mix. It would have seemed more realistic to me. Good read!

Love this author
It’s sad how our past haunts us. Our mind tells you you’re no good. Luckily there is a cowboy that tells her, she is good. We all want to have a tall, dark, handsome cowboy to save us. Great clean story. Can’t wait to start the next book by her.

A Great Read
I totally enjoyed reading this novel. For the most part the book went along fine until you came to one of many errors in the book. Words inserted in sentences that didn't make sense or words in the wrong place in the sentences.

Blind Date
Two broken people find each other. This whole series is awesome. This one will make you cry and laugh don't miss it. It does need an edit when he hires a window to help her.

Deep but enjoyable
I didn’t quite know what to Exocet after the first book but I enjoyed this anyway. It has themes of loss, dealing with grief and learning to value yourself. Beautiful.

When two people need to heal over loss. Colt's wife died not long after their daughter died and he was raising his two kids alone. Shelby has moved back after the kids of her son to SIDS and then a divorce. But working for him seems to help all of them heal.

I liked the storyline a lot. There needs to be some editing done. Also I would have liked for it to go on longer as it ended sore of abruptly.

A good read
You can't help but like these two strong characters ( and the kids are cute too). It's a well crafted story with pages too easy to turn.

Future:
This was a touching story of how we can over come losses. It took quick a great healing to come to terms with feeling the author was insight on that.

Dealing with Death
Both main characters confronted death and loss in their own way. Building a new life and still remembering the old life.
