Troy Cooper and Liam Turner is the third couple to find happiness together to end the one hundred year family feud between the two families. Liam offers Troy an escape from the problems with her family and they go camping for a couple of days. This ends in a fire with Liam's quick thinking getting the fire department to the site in time.

Problems continue between the older generation as the young couples are working together to end the problems between the two families. Troy finds it easy to help Liam first with the visit to start changing his ranch to organic and then in a community project to save the dialysis unit at the local hospital.

I liked that The Cowboy's Stolen Bride started with a wedding and ended with another wedding.

ARC for honest review with no compensation 4.5 stars

The Cowboy’s Stolen Bride is book 4 in the Turners vs Coopers of Chance Creek by Cora Seton.

Continuing the saga to see who will win the Chance Creek Founders prize… The Turner’s or the Cooper’s? Liam Turner and Tori Cooper pair up at the wedding of her brother and his sister and decide to go for a ride but…what happens next will keep you turning the pages to see where it all ends...

Seems the Turner and Cooper siblings are drawn to each other and hopefully they will bring the families together after decades of disliking each other. Can’t wait for the next book in the series!

Another Chance Creek visit, another sweet, action-packed and dramatic romance.
Coopers and Turners strike again.
I can’t wait until they have all married each other and spend the rest of their lives making up for all the years of feuding.
Tory and Liam are up and ready for their turn to fall in love but of course it’s never that easy lol especially between the Coopers and the Turners.

Action = Reaction!!!!

Liam Turner wasn't too happy when the Coopers got another win under their belts when Lance Cooper saved the museum with Maya's help in THE COWBOY'S HIDDEN BRIDE . Things got bad to worse when his mother suggested that they sale the family ranch, the Flying W.

Now he was determined to make his family get back on top for the Founder's Prize. He knew what he needed to do but wouldn't that make his family look bad. Well a man had to what a man had to do. Even if it meant spending time with the one woman who'd intrigued since his high school days, Tory Cooper.

Tory Cooper had always seen Liam Turner as an enemy and vicd versa. When the feud between their families caused all their lives to be turned upside down, she was happy to move out of Chance Creek with her mother and her siblings. She was back in her hometown and some things haven't changed like the crazy feud between her family and the Turners.

Despite two of her siblings being married to two Turners, she just wanted to finish her exams and open up her law firm. But her great-aunt, Virginia wanted her to be the one to make her family win the Founder's Prize. She found herself being thrown together with Liam Turner a lot since her homecoming.

As they spent more time together, they realized that they were both more similar than they thought. They felt like outsiders in their own families. Two lone wolves who became forming a strong bond that surprised them both to their cores. They knew that eventually the real world would caught up with them so they lived every second together to the fullest.

They had to face their past mistakes, forgive those that hurt them and asked for forgiveness in return from those they've hurt as well. As the competition continued, Tory and Liam worked hard to achieve their goals regarding their future. They nearly lost sight of what truly mattered.

Loved the way their loved ones were there giving them a push in the right directions. The Turners and the Coopers coming together again was a delightful treat. Tory and Liam got their HEA.

THE COWBOY'S STOLEN BRIDE is the fourth book in Cora Seton's TURNERS VS COOPERS series. It was riveting, heartwarming, fun and worth reading over and over again. Cora Seton did a mind-blowing job! 5++++

****I received this book without any obligation to review.**** 

P. S. Looking forward to Steel's book! ;)

Legendary Families

The Coppers and the Turners have been feuding for years. The current generation is finding that they have more in common than not. Tory Cooper is back in Chance Creek, finding an economical way to finish her law degree. Liam Turner runs his family's ranch, and the stress he's under is pretty extreme. The drought they are facing is making ranching, and just about everything else, extremely difficult. Throw in the easy, but electric, rapport between Tory and Liam and you have a combustible situation. Add to that heir long gone mother's returning from their self imposed exiles and a possible arsonist roaming the area and you are set for exciting times. We won't even mention the fight for the Founders Prize that has both families vying for the land situated between their two ranches. The suspense and action is palpable. Cora Seton has done her best job yet in writing an interesting, captivating story of two young people, both sure of what they want and what they believe, drawn to each other and tilting their own structured world. I Love the characters and their interactions. This is just great, old fashioned story telling at it's best. I can't wait for the next book in this series.

The Cooper's and Turners have been rivals for generations. Now can they help end it?

After dancing together at two of their siblings weddings, Liam has stolen Tory away a couple of times and they are spending time together and falling for each other. But they are both tasked to win the Founders prize. Liam takes on the task of trying to save the dialysis unit at the hospital that is earmarked to shut down. When she tells Virginia that is her plan, Liam thinks she was just using him, but she feels that he was just using him for the same reason. When she takes over his nest by that he called with no real plan other than to get the town together, Tory steps in to help and throws out an idea for fundraiser he is really mad thinking she is taking over to get the credit, but she saw him floundering so she stepped in to help. Can they get it straightened out? What is going to happen when the Ridley property catches fire and threatens Cooper land? Will they works things out or is she still bent on leaving after law school?

Liam and Tory

Good story. For some reason I had a harder time with this one. I didn’t feel the spark between these two. No chemistry, no “zing” until maybe a little near the end. I couldn’t see what drew these two together. I love all books written by Cora Seton. This is the fourth in this series but something was a little lacking in this one. Like the author just walked us through it? I don’t know. I did enjoy the story and look forward to the next in the series. Steals story.

Cowboys Stolen Bride: Turners vs Coopers

Liam and Tory what a pairing they bolster each other perfectly.
Enid, Mary and Leslie curious group of friends again, thinking they certainly make things interesting.
Virginia and Jed still have me wondering what happened with them in the past.
I see this whole series becoming Turners and Coopers instead of Turners vs Coopers.
I want the truth and history of the past

Fantastic reading!

Liam and Tory were a match made in Chance Creek. Absolutely perfect for each other, even if it took a while for Tory to admit the truth. Wonderful, familiar characters that made us feel right at home rounded out this intriguing love story between the Turners and the Coopers.

Tory was back she was staying long enough to complete her education. It didn't take long before Liam realized that he needed to change her mind.
Another wonderful story, love, family and fires. What more could you ask.

The Cowboy’s Stolen Bride

Tory and Liam are from different families. They just seem to have feelings for each other. They have to be careful not to let their families know how they feel. Read this book to learn more.

Fourth book in the Turner vs Cooper series.
The Turners and the Coopers have a long-standing feud.
Their elders, Jed Turner and Virginia Cooper hate each other with a passion.
Now, to make matters worse, they both compete for the Founder’s Prize to win the Ridley property, at the borders of Turners and Cooper ranches. Winning is important for both families to control the water source because their ranches are failing. Even worse there is a drought.
The Turners are considered good and honest citizens, their dead father was a cop.
On the contrary, the Coopers have not such a good standing since their father died in jail, being sentenced for poaching.

In the previous books
Noah Turner married Olivia Cooper and Lance Cooper married Maya Turner.
Now Mary , the Turners mom is back after leaving her children behind many years ago and she wants to convince them to sell the ranch.
Enid Cooper is back too, trying to reconnect which her children.

Now she is back in Chance Creek to cut her expenses while attending Law School.
Tory and Liam meet again at Lance at Maya wedding.
They go camping for a few days to take a break fro family pressure and obligations and they bond.
Tory helps Liam with the organic certification. Separately the stive to save the dialysis unit, pressured by their respective grandparents.


I really liked this book, it was emotional with some twists and turns.
I loved Tory and Liam as a couple, they both have put their work first but they
felt lonely . Their connection felt real.

The Cowboys Stolen Bride
By Cora Seton
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is book 4 in the Turners vs Coopers Series, also the first one in the series that I have read. I will be reading the others. The Turners and the Coopers have not liked each other for a very long tine, always trying to out do each other and causing problems as much as possible. Now that serval of the siblings have paired up and gotten married will the bad blood between the two families come to an end?
Liam is trying to save the family farm that he loves. His mom shows up after leaving them many years ago, now she wants to sell the farm and open a spa in another state. Liam and his siblings will not let that happen.
Tory is back home after leaving all ties to the family for many years. Her plan is to stay for three years so she can go to college to become a lawyer.
Liam and Tory escape all the conflict by getting out of town for a few days. The chemistry between them is strong, they understand each other.
Can Liam and Tory work together to save their families farms? Will the feud between the family keep them apart? Will they be able to trust each other and finally be together?
Another great read from Cora Seton. Kept me turning the pages for more.

The Coopers and Turners have been feuding for years. But now, while it seems like the feud would be getting bigger (and in some ways it is) with the Founder's Prize at stake, the lines are becoming blurred as the Coopers and Turners have started marrying each other. The book starts at a Cooper/Turner wedding. Unfortunately Liam is having an unwanted discussion with his mom and he needs to escape, enter Tory Cooper. Liam grabs Tory to dance and this is when the fun begins.

While this dance starts to stir things inside both Liam and Tory, they separate but not for long. Both rush out of the wedding quickly and Tory is escaping the wedding and town with Liam. But it wouldn't be a great Cooper/Turner read without drama and there's lots. Tory can't wait to start law school, get her degree and leave again. Liam, on the otherhand, loves the town and wants to save his ranch by going organic. He's afraid of Tory leaving.

Of course, their moms both have pasts and a lot is revealed that changes what everyone once thought. It was fun not only watching Liam and Tory but also both their moms and friend renew their once close friendship. This was such a good read and in true Cora Seton fashion, leaves you wondering what's going on with Tory's brother Steel.

Once again, Ms Seton has created a tale that will have you riding an emotional roller coaster from page one to the end. Her characters are captivating, endearing and real! The story addresses real issues that a lot of people can not only relate to, but have experienced.
Who could have ever guessed just how interwoven the Turners and the Coopers truly were, right back to the roots, beginning with Virginia and Jed. Generations of love and hate, with most of the ones left standing clueless as to how it all began. But when the town starts to fall, you can rest easy knowing that these two families will do everything in their power to make it right.
With Liam and Tory spearheading the rescue of the local dialysis unit, both from opposing sides, close quarters just may lead to yet another coupling between these two feuding families. Yet, someone nearby has other plans for these two.
Full of suspense, excitement and of course, lots of love, this episode is sure to keep you on the edge of your chair. I anxiously await for the next book in this series. Here's hoping it's Steele and Stella's story.
I was gifted a copy of this book and am voluntarily giving my honest opinion.

Tory and Liam, restless 20 somethings back in their hometown and feeling the weight of their families’ problems on their shoulders. Their families have long been enemies, and they should be, too, right? After a wedding, Tory and Liam ditch their families and responsibilities and ride off for a quiet evening at a nearby lake…and so their relationship begins. The author deftly makes them seem like real people in your own hometown. Readers will want to root for them to find an HEA right from the start.

Liam is trying to save his family’s ranch, and Tory is determined to make enough money to attend law school. Can they grow enough as individuals to see a future together? An enemies to lovers story with a lot of heart. I appreciated the honest reactions to events that they share with each other.

This book can be read as a standalone but is part of a series. I am anxiously waiting for the next story of the Chance Creek cowboys to come out and hope to glimpse Tory and Liam again in it.

Two troubled kindred spirits: Liam who likes to take off on a camping trip for a few days when things become too much and he needs a little space. And, Tory who has temporarily returned to Chance Creek. She doesn’t want to get embroiled with family drama, but feels guilty for having a life away from her family. Add in the addition of their estranged mothers and its no wonder an impromptu escape from Chance Creek brings these two together. It’s not as simple to stay together. Some of their siblings have married each other, but there’s still a battle for the Founders prize and an ongoing feud happening between their families. It’s time for the two families to start dealing with the past if Liam and Tory are to have any hope for the future. Can love triumph under their latest family drama? I loved this story filled with secrets, jealousy, determination and acceptance, with bickering mothers that did make me chuckle. It is an entertaining edition to the Turner/ Cooper feud. Although the ending has left more questions to these families pasts, I can’t wait to see what happens next.

What I like most about Ms. Seton's books is the story-telling that she brings to each story. This one is no exception. There's just something so pleasant about all the Chance Creek books. Just like with their siblings Liam and Tory have some obstacles to overcome, but at this point it was more of their own issues rather than coming from the families. Tory and Liam both had some growing to do, and I could see it developing. Particularly as more information about both sets of parents came out, and they had to face what really happened. At one point both families had to come together more than ever, although there is still some of the animosity that they've had for years. It's lovely to see the changes happening, and how neighbors are also working to help them bury the hatchet. There were a few surprises as well, which brought more emotion than I had expected. And it all starts with Liam and Tory stealing time away from their families.
