Henderson Family Saga #6
Found Love in a Rider
Malachi Henderson isn’t a stranger to hard work or the country. However, trying to get his life on track from his self-destructive past has taken time. Finally embarking upon what he really wants in the rodeo arena while receiving help from the best to do it, he realizes some things in his love life have to change as well. In the midst of those changes, he meets the woman that he feels he’s supposed to do life with. Before even getting to know her, he believes they are meant to be. Convincing Danica of that seems to be a slight task, though. With the help of a loving family, his career is on track, but what will it mean without someone to share it with?
Danica Collier is in love with love. She’s fascinated by everything it encompasses, which is why she’s confused as to why it eludes her. As a Senior in college, she’s preparing to enter her career field and feels a relationship with the right man would complete her. However, when she meets Malachi Henderson, despite the initial attraction to him, she wonders if getting to know him would be worth her time. Wasted energy is something she has no patience to endure anymore and she wants to be sure that a relationship with him is something she can handle.
Doubt is the enemy when it comes to going for what you want. This proves to be true for Danica and Malachi when moving forward. Can Danica accept all of Malachi and his country quirks? Can Malachi stomach what he has to endure to make Danica his?

M O N I C A !!!! I just want to know, why do I have to scream at you every time I read a body of your work!!!?
Malachi Henderson & Danica Collier’s relationship was a vibe for sure! The romance was there, off the rip! Malachi, a 25 year old who turned his life around as an ode to his mother, meets Danica a 24 year old who was in college & loved love and was waiting for it to find her. Well love found her, all due to problems at a gas station! They were an amazing couple from beginning to end! It was destined to be!!!
The fact that Malachi was chosen to be Legend’s protégé was the bomb.com! I’ve always love every character connected to this series & the ones before this series! The Henderson ride H A R D for their people, & that showed the way they accepted Danica! Tiffany is the GOAT as always lol. I was also saddened to hear about what happened to Ryder & Philly! Monica, tuhhh, I’m just tired of the consistent amazingness of these books 😂! Let me just move on to Philly & Kema’s story! Just keep them coming PUUUHHLEASSSE, don’t ever S T O P!

Magnificent
Malachi and Danica's story was a perfect blend of sweet and super sexy. They fell for one another at first sight. At first, it looked like she was going to be too bougie for this countryfied man. The chance to visit with favorites was much fun. Legend, my all time favorite, along with Red and the other rodeo masters-Tiffany included. But this one added two fabulous characters to the saga. Danica and Malachi were a delightful couple by the time their story ended.

Malachi is giving Storm a run for his money as my new favorite. Jeez Monica! I feel like the author had some pent up sexual energy and poured into Malachi and decided to add in the bullriding AND that he is a God-fearing man. (keep away the impure thoughts, keep away the impure thoughts)
Okay. The author continued to build on this country community that makes country boys and their dusty boots sexier than they have ever been.
Great character development. The chemistry between Malachi and Danica was so well written. The plot moved at a moderate pace and I was engaged from the onset. If you like your country boys full of melanin, sex appeal, and humor, you'll love this addition to this catalog.

Mal with the Magic Stroke
Malachi is my type of NASTYYYY. Danica slipped for a minute but the curve brought her back around.
Monica Walters is a phenomenal writer. Her words captivate and visually come to life as you read each page. The sex scenes in this one burned the tips of my fingers as I read from my iPad.
Job well done.

Great book!
I freaking loved this story. This author can never go wrong with her Country Hood stories. I love the Henderson family and it was great to meet new members as well as catch up with my faves. I was kinda given Danica the side eye at the beginning. But Malachi got her together before she missed her blessings. I loved Malachi and Danica story, it was easy with little to no drama just how I like it. With the best happily ever after!

Riding for love
3.5 stars
Another solid story about the Henderson's. I was actually hoping we got Neesha's story, but I enjoyed Malachi as well.
Malachi Henderson was first cousin to all the Henderson's we've grown to love in the previous stories. He was finally at a place where he felt like he could pursue his love for bull riding. As he was trying to focus on his craft he runs into Danica. Even though she is hot and cold he sensed that she was his one.
Danica was finishing up college while working a full time job, so she was busy. Together they navigated around their schedules to get to know each other. I wish more time would've been spent on Danica as a person. I didn't really connect with her. Their relationship moved so fast as well, it seemed like they barely knew each other.
It's always good to catch up on the Henderson's and Tiffany was a great surprise. Jasper, my fave, was there again with his quiet support.
Another key point was the explanation around Malachi's moms passing. I wanted more there. Overall it was a good story, but lacked character development and closure of some stories.

Country hood loving...
One thing for sure this country hood love story is Mrs. Walters's genre of expertise. She wrote this book. It was good to catch up with Hendersons, they are all still the same. Storm is still a straight shooter and the Hendersons are still sticking together as a family. A couple of the Hendersons are still lost but maybe by the time another book is dropped they will get themselves together.
Malachi and Danica complemented each other well even down to their love for food. Malachi was very persistent and he finally Danica to ride for him. Danica had to break through her fears but once she did their love blossomed beautifully.
This book was a treat to me, I have been into Mrs. Walters's country hood love stories for a while now. It was just what I needed for this year (2020). I most definitely recommend this book and any book that she writes.

Yes, Miss Monica! I knew there were more Henderson's out there! Never too much country love! Malachi, lived up to the Henderson name. He was truly a good man with a heart of gold! Danica, tried to act like she couldn't deal with his career. But, who can walk away from a Henderson man? Girl, quit playin! 😁 These two were so much fun. Enjoyed how quickly they connected. Didn't even feel like instalove, just perfect love! Thank you, thank you for having my favorite Storm, make a cameo! Love his rude ass!
Please say that there will be a story about WJ! Have always been curious about him, but even more so now. Even our supporting characters are getting intersting as well. Philly! What is his deal?
As always Miss Monica, you have kept me thoroughly intertained, and coming back for more! Great job! 👍👍👍

Monica has done it again! Malachi may be one of the younger Hendersons but he know how to ride a bull and how to treat a lady! As passionate as he is about his craft and career, he pours the same kind of energy into his woman. Danica was a straight shooter who was willing to try anything once. Stepping outside the box proved to be a great choice for her. This page turner brought everything Monica Walters' fan have come to love and crave--a heat filled, wild ride, non-filtered, country-hood, laugh out loud, loving bomb ass story!
Monica, Thank you for sharing Josh with us and giving us updates on our favorite cowboys!

Ms. Monica is ALWAYS a beast with the pen✍ and this was no different. Danica and Malachi had a love and relationship that was so easy and refreshing. I enjoyed his backstory of being a bad boy and she was just what he needed. I was kinda frustrated with Danica and the wishy washy shit but Mal got her mind right. I enjoyed hearing from the old heads in Nome and Josh was hilarious 😂😂. I feel like Nome has some more country thug love to tell. Great job Monica👏👏👏. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. 👍👍😘👏👏

Absolutely Amazing Read
Where can I find me a bull rider? Malachi and Danica were everything! Their chemistry was strong from the time they met! He made her work through the reservations she had about him and they moved right along. Once again, this book was amazing and I can't wait to read another book based off of the Henderson's and the rodeo lifestyle!

As usual, I read this Monica Walters classic the same day of its release! Monica is something nice with her pen, but when she writes anything about the Henderson family?! That's when she truly showcases her amazing talent! I loved reading about Malachi and Danica! Malachi was such and spring from when he 1st met Danica and I'm glad he never gave up on her, even when she was tripping lol! Their love was fast but real, sweet but oh so nasty and the kind of story you can expect from a Henderson. Now Nesha?? That was an unexpected twist! But all in all, this story was LIT!

Very Good Book
I love the Henderson family. Malachi and Danica are it for each. I love how Danica just says what's on her mind. I love how Legend mentored Malachi to be the best bull rider he can be. I am so mad at Philly. Hopefully him and Kema can get back together. Very good book. We need more Henderson books.

Ride em cowboy
Another hot and fiery story. Malachi makes the country sound like the place to be. Those Henderson men! Danica got introduced to a bull riding stallion of a man. The Henderson's are tight knit and entertaining as heck. Love it because it has black people dominating the rodeo circuit and finding love while doing it, what's not to love about that!

The Hendersons stories always feel like a family reunion
Let me just say I'm proud to see ya continuously putting the Black Rodeo out for us to read about...and at least become a LITTLE familiar with it 😂. This story was dope, I especially loved Malachi and Danica's chemistry.
