HOW TO ROPE A WILD COWBOY
Emmett Benson makes no apologies for his bachelor status. He revels in a woman’s surrender but does not want the responsibility of claiming a submissive for his own, because no one is worth the price of his freedom. He appreciates his friends, loves his horse, and fancies wrangling cattle every day over interacting with people. When it comes to his life, he figures he has it made, and that there is no reason to alter things—now, or in the future.
But all it takes is one lousy spill off a new, temperamental thoroughbred to cause a load of trouble. One look at the prim and proper new town doctor, and Emmett wants nothing more than to ruffle her cool demeanor. The woman is likely too tightly wound to even consider submission. He cannot desire her. It is out of the question. He must be delirious from the pain of his injuries to even be contemplating the possibility of claiming her, even though she makes him want to mark his territory and challenge any man who comes near her.
But then the doctor makes an unexpected house call and, with her sweet, feminine scent clouding his senses, Emmett makes her a bargain. He will behave like the perfect patient, for the cost of a single kiss, freely given. He never expected her to accept his offer.
He thought he was in trouble before, but after just one kiss, every dominant part of Emmett’s being thunders: MINE.
HOW TO ROPE A RICH COWBOY
Colt Anderson is burned out. Every part of his daily life has become a tedious chore. He cannot remember the last time he took a day off or, better yet, felt a woman’s willing surrender. And it’s just his luck that on his first day off in ages, he runs into a sexy squatter on his property, never expecting that single interaction would alter the very fabric of his world.
Still, he cannot seem to stay away from the sultry scientist, Avery. Colt feels bad for her, worries that she is running from something, and decides to cover her stay at the ranch. After all, he owns the place and has plenty of cash. Although that tiny little detail is a secret he plans on keeping to himself. It is addictive having a woman look in his direction and not see dollar signs for a change.
Because when Avery casts those goddess eyes his way, he’s just a man, a man she craves and submits to body and soul, like he’s her man, and his longing for her has him tied up in knots. With trouble and danger drawn to her like magnets, Avery pulls out his protective, dominant nature. The woman needs a keeper, and he’s the perfect man for the job.
Now he has less than two weeks to convince her to stay, to make her fall for him before she discovers he’s rich. But will she hate him when she discovers his deception?
HOW TO ROPE A ROUGH COWBOY
Maverick Greyson is barely housebroken. Having been raised on ranches, he spends the bulk of his days on the back of his horse, and can’t imagine a finer way to occupy his time – except maybe a night with a willing female. He loves women. Enjoys their company mightily. Relishes the available bounty of tourists and townsfolk alike, and rarely enjoys the same woman twice.
But the ranch’s newest guest, Bianca Peabody, makes him want to swear off the species entirely. The doe-eyed beauty, with her highfalutin’ attitude, makes his blood boil.
And yet the sorrow he glimpses in her one night changes everything. Now his soul hungers to have her in his arms. He burns for her love. Heaven help him, her surrender may be everything he has always needed.
For the first time in his life, Maverick is looking toward the future, and building one with the only woman he has ever wanted to claim. But she is keeping secrets…
Secrets capable of destroying him – and any future they might have.

How To Rope A Wild Cowboy (Silver Springs Ranch Book 1)
YOU ARE MY HOME
A wonderful story to this new series and can read well as a stand-alone. The story takes place in the small town of Winter Park, Colorado, which is also the location for Silver Springs Ranch—a working dude ranch for tourists. What starts with men carrying in an injured man to Dr. O'Neal's practice will come with the revelation that Dr. Joseph O'Neal has passed away and his granddaughter, Dr. Grace O'Neal, has taken over his practice.
Emmett Benson has been trampled by a horse, causing a dislocated shoulder and bruised ribs. Grace, a former ER physician from Denver, is used to all kinds of trauma, relocates the shoulder, bandages the ribs, and starts him on medicine for his long recovery. She will agree to come to check him out at the ranch.
The story will have Emmett and Colt making a silly bet about who can have their way with the good doctor first. Most cowboys at Silver Springs are Doms, and sharing females have just been part of the territory. But, Emmett is taken with Grace and determined that this time, things are different.
The story includes Emmett and Grace becoming intimate almost immediately—and even what could be considered unprofessionally, with him being her patient—and what they do in the office. (I will be honest, I struggled with this part of the story—but I did feel that they redeemed their relationship by the end.)
"This was not the way to begin life in a new town—by having sex with one of her first patients—no matter how much she might enjoy it. Because after that one taste, she already knew without a doubt that he walked on the sensual dark side, and sex with Emmett would be wild, decadently naughty, and passionately dirty."
"They might be compatible in the bedroom, with a combustible chemistry that was off the charts, but outside it, his overbearing attitude drover her crazy. And therein lay the problem. She wanted him more than she had ever wanted another man. Grace relied on logic, reason, and science. Her attraction to Emmett was none of those things, it defied all logic and reason."
The story includes a strong, independent female doctor, who has made her way in the world, has an excellent reputation among her collages, and had her life and career planned out. But, she has been hurt by men, has very little time for anything social, and doesn't even have friends. She is so busy, she can't even get away to visit her only relative, her grandfather, and now, he is even gone. She must decide what to do—take over the practice, as he wanted, or sell and stay in Denver. The one thing she never expected was Emmett and the feelings she develops for him. Where he has introduced her to dominance and submission and showed her the passion within a D/s relationship. As quickly as she consents to him, that scares her too, yet her body, mind, and soul crave him and his domination.
"Pleasure unlike anything Grace had ever known infused her being. It was the most instinctive thing in the world, like a key had finally been fitted in a lock and the lock opened. Now that the proverbial Pandora's box was open, she wanted to sample the entire cornucopia."
Emmett is a man who has held himself back from getting too close to any woman. He has trust issues. He enjoys the power exchange and control within a dominant-submissive relationship, but it has always been playing, never serious. The feelings with Grace are unlike anything he has ever felt for another woman, and it scares him—the way he craves and needs her.
"It was like she was the woman, the submissive, he had been waiting for his entire life, and the moment they met, it was as if his soul recognized her as his and declared her mine."
Like in all good stories, something will happen, and feelings will be hurt. Grace will feel cheap and used and start questioning her life, her plans, and her future. When a call comes from Denver with an offer for a lucrative position, it may be just what she needs. Maybe staying in Winter Park isn't her future—but will the townsfolk change her mind at the Life Celebration of Dr. Joseph O'Neal?
"Sometimes, it's not the family we're given but the one we create that matters."
The story is an erotic, emotional roller-coaster ride. It has plenty of angst, secrets, omissions, dominance/submission, heavy on sex, and some power exchange.
How To Rope A Rich Cowboy (Silver Springs Ranch Book 2)
YOU'RE MY PENGUIN
While this is a series, the second book is well-written and will read as a stand-alone. The story mainly focuses on two people, Colt Anderson, owner of Silver Springs Ranch, and Avery Morgan, an astronomer, and astrophysicist. In many ways, they are complete opposites, yet when they come together, even when total strangers, the chemistry is off the charts.
Colt Anderson has the weight of the world on his shoulders, well, maybe just the responsibilities of Silver Springs Ranch and all it entails. A day away, no phone, no questions, just a day to relax, enjoy nature, ride his horse, Tank, and decompress. But, that changes with a sudden thunderstorm that will have him riding to one of the empty cabins to take shelter. What a shock to find a woman there.
Avery Morgan has brains and is impressive in her science fields, but she is a klutz, has the propensity to lose important things, like her wallet, and finds herself in precarious positions. She takes what life throws her one day at a time. Items can be replaced, and her field of work is critical, so she will deal with paying for the cabin soon; right now, getting her equipment in before it is ruined is vital. Then when a cowboy and his horse show up, he is angry and making threats.
The story will start with Colt finding Avery at one of the cabins and accuse her of being a squatter. As he is yelling at her, making threats, she shuts him up by kissing him, and he turns that kiss on her with angry passion that leads to hot and heavy sex.
"They were drawn to each other in an almost magnetic fashion."
The plot will have Colt and Avery spending as much time as possible together, and when these two are together, that includes lots of erotic sizzling hot sex. Colt will tell her he is a Dominant, but that doesn't scare her off. Instead, it excites her, and she is open to whatever he suggests. It seems that Avery has an uncanny ability for getting into trouble and danger, and multiple times that will have Colt coming to her rescue.
Colt has been hurt; the last woman wanted to change him to meet her image and only saw him as dollar signs, ending their engagement. Avery was left at the altar but has moved on. Colt wants to make sure that a woman wants him for who he is and not what he owns, so he keeps that secret from Avery. The truth is, Avery is the most down-to-earth person considering what she is and what she is worth. What happens when things are getting serious with them? Will Colt call everything to a halt because of the past, or will he be open to a future with this flighty scientist?
"Money always matters, it always changes things." –Colt
"You know, for all your bluster about being a Dom in control of your universe, you're terrified to truly experience life and the world. You think by cutting yourself off, it makes you strong and impervious to harm. When all it really does is prove that you're a coward."
"Here, she had discovered the greatest love she had ever known, and experienced the greatest heartbreak inside of two weeks."
The story is an erotic, emotional roller-coaster ride. I found Colt arrogant and tried to justify his actions based on the hurt caused by Carly. He lies by omission, and yet that isn't something he would accept from a submissive. Avery is herself. She doesn't brag about who she is, what her family owns, or how smart she is; she is just herself. She has been hurt, but she pulled up her big girl panties and moved on. The story is heavy on sex and does have some power exchange.
How To Rope A Rough Cowboy (Silver Springs Ranch Book 3)
THE HEART WANTS WHAT IT WANTS
While this is a series, the third book is well-written and will read as a stand-alone. The story mainly focuses on two people, Maverick "Mav" Greyson and Bianca Peabody— they are complete opposites, yet when they come together, even when total strangers, the chemistry is off the charts.
Mav had a crappy childhood, the product of a marriage due to a pregnancy, which parents who didn't love each other nor seemed to care about him. When he was old enough, he left home, traveled around, worked multiple ranches, and then settled down in Colorado working at Silver Spring Ranch. He's happy here, loves working with the horses, and has even purchased a small piece of heaven nearby that he plans to build his own place. There are plenty of locals and tourists to play with—and he has no intentions of getting serious with just one woman.
Bianca comes from royalty—as in British royalty, where archaic unions are still in place. Her parents have made a betrothal to her friend, Peter, since ages thirteen and sixteen. He is the son of a Duke, and her mother loves that prestige for her daughter. Cue upTina Turner—"What's love got to do with it?"—and that isn't what Bianca wants for herself or Peter.
The plot will have Bianca running away from London, flying to America, and heading west. She will drive from Denver to Winter Park, where she had booked five weeks at the Silver Springs Ranch. When trying to unpack her rental (Mercedes), she will be confronted by a cowboy who arrogantly calls her Princess. These two have a way of rubbing each other wrong, like vinegar and baking soda, and something will blow up. As Bianca tries to settle in, knowing her fate is a ticking time-bomb, she also feels lost and needs to find herself. Everything in her life that she found pleasure in, her mother decided it was frivolous and ruined for her—now, she will experience those things again, like riding a horse and painting.
When Mav and Bianca have several encounters, it never goes well, but that will change. What was supposed to be a night of no-strings-sex happens, everything changes. Each will do things that they usually wouldn't do—and when these two get together, they can't get enough of each other. Typically, Mav is a one-and-done man; it was real, it was fun, now I'm done—but not with Bianca—he can't get her off his mind, and he can't wait to see her again. Bianca feels so free, and she is willing to experiment. Mav told her he was a Dom, he is in control, and she allows him to teach her.
"We make quite the pair, don't we? Families are so complicated."
"But yours drove you to another country."
"They did, for which I'm eternally grateful. I was suffocating. Being smothered daily by my mother's well-intentioned plans for my life. I'd almost forgotten that it was mine to live. If I would have stayed, I think my soul would have died."
The plot has plenty of angst, family issues, lies by omission, but it also has passion, sizzling hot sex, a journey into BDSM, and new experiences.
"He wanted the woman who drove him crazy and made him burn with illicit desire."
"And deep in her heart, she knew he was it for her. She might have had to leave everything she knew behind and travel half a world away to find him. But it had been worth it."
The story has the good, the bad, and the troublemaker. Two people, fate brings together, but both have issues, family issues, and it tries to put a wedge between them. What the feel for each other burns everything else away—but trouble is coming. When Mav learns what Bianca hasn't shared, will this be the end? Will her mother win?
Overall, I loved the story, the chemistry, and the ending. Despite Mav's arrogance, when it came to schooling Bianca into BDSM, he was patient, caring, and she was his reward. I think that Mav and Bianca are great together; they heal each other and have a way of lifting each other. The story is an erotic, emotional roller-coaster ride. It is extremely heavy on sex scenes (way too many IMO) and does have some power exchange.

"How to Rope a Cowboy" Boxset by Anya Summers is a great addition to any library, whether you've already read these books individually as they were released and just want this for your collection or you're just now starting the series. Either way, you don't want to miss these wonderful stories.
1. How to Rope a Wild Cowboy
Anya Summers has just started my new obsession with the Dom/Cowboys on the Silver Springs Ranch! From the very beginning, this book grabbed onto me and I knew I'd be lost to it. Grace has returned to the small town where her grandfather had his doctor's practice and raised her when her parents died. Trying to manage her grief while adjusting to the move from a large city and working in the ER of a hospital to taking over a private practice in a small community was overwhelming, to begin with. Then add the introduction of the very large, very alpha cowboys that seemed to take over her clinic and it could take away her breath, especially the patient that was being brought in! Emmett is everything she's fantasized about and everything she's afraid of. The cowboys of Silver Spring Ranch definitely raised my heart rate and kept me glued to the chair while I finished this fantastic read. I would highly recommend this one!
2. How to Rope a Rich Cowboy
I just absolutely love Anya Summers books!! In 'How to Rope a Rich Cowboy' she introduces us to Colt and Avery. Both are independently wealthy and yet their outlook on life is at opposite ends of the spectrum. Colt has been hurt previously so he's closed himself off so he doesn't have to face the possibility of it happening again. Avery, on the other hand, has also been hurt but still has a love of life and a belief in love. When these two meet it is embarrassing, comical, and frustrating. Yet underneath all that, there is chemistry starting to brew that has these two colliding in fireworks. It pulled me in from the first page and I didn't finish until the wee hours of the morning. It's that good.
3. How to Rope a Rough Cowboy
'How to Rope a Rough Cowboy' is Anya Summers' third book in her "Silver Springs Ranch" series and is at hot as 'How to Rope a Wild Cowboy' and 'How to Rope a Rich Cowboy'. Each of these books can be read as a standalone so if you're starting this one first, have no worries, you'll be able to follow along with no problems. But do yourself a favor and grab books one and two, you won't be sorry. This time we get to meet Maverick who was raised in a loveless home, his mom getting pregnant and the times dictated his parents marry. He couldn't wait to leave home after graduation determined to make his way and never wind up in a situation like his parents. That's how he wound up at Silver Springs Rach ten years ago. He doesn't want to be tied down to one woman and never indulges in repeat performances. Until Bianca showed up as a guest at the ranch. With her haughty attitude and prissy demeanor, the two immediately mix like oil and water until they wind up having to spend time together and suddenly the mixture turned to gasoline and matches. I was on pins and needles hoping for Bianca's secrets to be voluntarily revealed in the midst of this passion but, as you know in most romances, that didn't happen. Wait until you read this. It will absolutely blow you away. I know it did me.
1. How to Rope a Wild Cowboy
Anya Summers has just started my new obsession with the Dom/Cowboys on the Silver Springs Ranch! From the very beginning, this book grabbed onto me and I knew I'd be lost to it. Grace has returned to the small town where her grandfather had his doctor's practice and raised her when her parents died. Trying to manage her grief while adjusting to the move from a large city and working in the ER of a hospital to taking over a private practice in a small community was overwhelming, to begin with. Then add the introduction of the very large, very alpha cowboys that seemed to take over her clinic and it could take away her breath, especially the patient that was being brought in! Emmett is everything she's fantasized about and everything she's afraid of. The cowboys of Silver Spring Ranch definitely raised my heart rate and kept me glued to the chair while I finished this fantastic read. I would highly recommend this one!

In How to Rope a Wild Cowboy, Grace was a doctor who lost her grandfather to a heart attack, but was left his medical practice and house in Winter Park, CO. She had been an ER doctor, working 12 hour plus shifts and was kind of looking forward to slowing down a little...maybe...but was shy as usually working too much to date often and thought maybe her dreams of home and family may happen in smaller town. Her first day in her grandfather's former office, Emmett was brought in after being thrown and trampled by a new thoroughbred. She met Colt, his boss and owner of Silver Spring dude ranch, and three other cowboys and a very grumpy Emmett, who suffered from a dislocated left shoulder, a slight concussion, bruised ribs especially on the right side...and after she got him x-rayed and fixed his shoulder, wrote prescriptions, giving instructions for no pain medication or muscle relaxers that evening, sent them along their way, with Colt saying would watch him overnight...but then Grace had to get Emmett a brace for his shoulder and made house call, catching him in his boxers as he couldn't get into jeans yet...but as a new woman in a small town, Colt and Emmett took notice of the pretty doc, and as both were Doms into the BDSM lifestyle, the blushing doctor was a target for Colt and Emmett, with both expressing interest and making a bet as to which would get her...but you will need to read this flirty cowboy story to see if either gets Grace or will she decide small town life not her cup of tea...In How to Rope a Rich Cowboy, Colt was owner of Silver Springs Ranch, riding the pastures, when a storm came up...he headed to a vacant cabin, only to find a squatter was set up there and was bringing all sorts of equipment into the cabin...so he went to investigate. He met a petite force of nature called Avery who said she lost her wallet in nearby stream while scouting the area for watching the night skies...since she only had ramen, eggs and and couple of apples, Colt figured she was on the run from someone or broke. They were hot for each other and passed the stormy night in bed...but he had to get back to ranch work, so left, promising to come back that evening. Colt was wary of women since his previous fiancé only was interested in him for his money...what he didn't know was Avery was a scatterbrained PhD with degrees in astronomy and astrophysics, who was studying a comet she discovered and was named after her...and her family was beyond rich...but you will need to read this delightful romp to see what happens...leading to How to Rope a Rough Cowboy, where Bianca was a young woman whose mother ran her life...and criticized her every decision. She was engaged to Peter since she was 13 and he was 16 per their family and proper London society...and she was tired of it, and thought she would be soul dead if she want through with her mother's plans for her life...so she decided to leave and travel 5000 miles to Colorado. She rented a cabin at Silver Springs Ranch and decided to rediscover herself...after arriving in rental car where she was driving on wrong side of the road, seated behind the wheel on the wrong side of the car...only to be confronted by an ornery cowboy, Maverick who called her Princess and seemed to get on her nerves...but he was there to assist with bags, teaching her western saddles...and ease some of her loneliness...but would they discover a yearning for each other before she had to get back to London and her upcoming nuptials....I received a free copy of this anthology via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

How to Rope a Wild Cowboy
I found this to be an entertaining book, though there aren’t any real surprises in it, other than the ones that stretch the bounds of reality. I could see the landmine Emmett and Grace’s relationship was driving towards a mile away. The only real question, to my mind, was: what would make it explode? Other than an unexpectedly long stubborn streak at the end, I loved Grace. She’s an independent woman who, while strong, is also vulnerable but masking it with every trick up her sleeve. That vulnerability made her endearing to me. I also really appreciated that she was willing to call Emmett out when he was behaving like a jerk and didn’t let him get away with the excuse “because I’m the Dom in this relationship.” Feelings can be big scary things when you’re not used to them and not expecting them, so I get why Emmett spends so much time behaving like an idiot. It was really nice seeing his “a-hah!” moment and watching him get his act together. I enjoyed meeting the other inhabitants of Silver Springs Ranch and look forward to reading more about them in the future.
How to Rope a Rich Cowboy
Urk! I loved Colt but he sure knows how to shoot himself in the foot. I absolutely loved Avery. I particularly adored that she has a strong backbone and isn’t afraid to tell Colt how big a jerk he’s being when he’s being especially dense. I am a huge fan of strong heroines who can maintain that strength in their submission. Together, Colt and Avery have lots of chemistry. She shows him how to get out in the world and experience new things, while he grounds her scattered thoughts and gives her a place to land. With the hints about what’s maybe coming next, I’m really looking forward to continuing with this series.
How to Rope a Rough Cowboy
Maverick and Bianca look like the dictionary definition of ‘opposites attract’. With her aristocratic British heritage and his wild west upbringing, these two really couldn’t have come from more different backgrounds. However, once we start peeling back the surface, these lost souls have more in common than either one could have guessed. I particularly appreciated that when things weren’t going right for them, it wasn’t always only one partner’s fault and that both of them were capable of asking for and granting forgiveness. This may not have been the pair I thought would be up next, but I’m starting to think that explosive combination might be saved for last. In the meantime, I look forward to reading more about the other inhabitants of Silver Springs Ranch.

It is a fun collection.
I had read and review two of these books and I really liked them "HOW TO ROPE A RICH COWBOY" was new and so the review for that book is the first one listed below. I am happy to recommend the collection it is sassy, fun, full passion and a bit of humor. I did receive a free copy of this book from Booksprout and voluntarily chose to review it.
HOW TO ROPE A RICH COWBOY
This one has the hero and heroine doing the steam really quick. It was kind of fun to read I really like Colt and Avery. Colt has the challenge of needing to get over his beliefs about love. That really is the main problem that needs to be solved. I did find this book entertaining may be not completely realistic but it is a story it not real.
HOW TO ROPE A WILD COWBOY
A recipe for hot steamy love one injured cowboy and one lovely lady doctor a little chemistry and some alpha male vibes and you are in for a rather fun tale. Emmet our cowboy has been hurt; Grace our doctor is a bit stubborn. Now with one or two challenges this fun couple just may find a way to be together. I liked the character they had a realness to them I have known some stubborn people who do some dumb stuff just like these two. I enjoyed the book.
HOW TO ROPE A ROUGH COWBOY
Maverick Greyson (love that name) is our lovable? hero of the story. Bianca Peabody is our sweet young (okay she a run-away with secrets) heroine and this spicy tale is all about them. I really liked Bianca she was really between a rock and a hard place and yes spoiled but our hero knows just what to do about that. They made a great couple. The last few chapters were very dramatic and fun to read! This was a naughty, steamy, and very enjoyable piece you really should check it out.

I love series that are stand alones, connected by friends & family. This one doesn’t disappoint. Anya Summers has done a great balancing act, creating engaging love stories that combine passion, chemistry, character, believability, and two of my favorite genres, cowboys and D/s. My personal taste in D/s is the giving up of control in the bedroom, and possessiveness of the D, and not the ‘I own your life and you will sit at my feet’ type, so the D/s dynamic was perfect for my taste. The D/s was a garnish, the steamy sex was a substantial side dish, and yet the story was the entrée. I loved that all three women were strong, smart, mature women (Bianca grew into that characterization as the story progressed), who weren’t in the lifestyle but were falling hard enough to be open to it, and open to spontaneous love relationships they weren’t looking for. I also liked the diversity in the couples. Wild cowboy and grieving city doctor, disillusioned well off ranch owner, and hippy astronomer free spirit with ‘rocket science’ like intelligence, and working cowboy with plans for his future on the land he loves, with no long-term lover in the plan, meets deeper than she seems wealthy pedigreed woman from another county yearning to be free. Whew! Run-on sentences, I know – apologies! One thing I DON’T like about series, is where phrases and situations are the same story with different names. This series steered clear, and each stories had it’s own flavor. I can already predict who the next couple of stories will be about, and I can’t wait.

The addition starts with the book cover….yeah…yeah…yeah don’t judge a book by its cover they say ….well we all do it and this one here it is the scratch to your itch or better yet the filling to your oreos! Speaking of filling…..wait, that’s for later. Within the first chapters you get the panoramic view of whom you’re dealing with!
By the time you’ve figured out who is who, you’re already hooked, and you may as well give up the fight and prepare yourself for an all-nighter!
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
I actually own each one of these separately so why get the box well because I can find them in one place to re-read when wanted 😊. Each fantastic book reads as standalone books but why just read one when you can start at the beginning and keep reading through the series it won’t be a waste of time. The Alphas cowboys and the queens that bring them to their knees (literally). They will Keep you wondering where they are off to next, who will they corrupt next, so what happens when emotional bonds forms instantly upon sight when they weren’t on the menu, and attachments certainly weren’t supposed to form. The chemistry is instant and intense from they lay eyes on their queens, the magnetic pull can’t/won’t be ignored. So, when fate put things, people in place and love rears her beautiful head throwing yet another wrench into the works this set is what you will get. I suggest you get comfortable with a cup of your favorite tea/coffee/hot chocolate because once you start you won’t stop until the last page has been turned.

Three great stories in an excellent box set.
How To Rope A Wild Cowboy: This is a glorious book full of emotion: hope, loss, passion, pain, fear and love. Lots of love mixed in with pleasure and pain.
Emmett and Grace are great characters, both have a lot of baggage tied up in their emotions. There passion and spirits fight with each other. But if both can bend happiness would surely follow.
I ready enjoyed this story, the characters kept me engrossed.
How To Rope A Rich Cowboy: I love this book.
This story pulled me through many emotions, I end it with happy tears in my eyes.
Avery and Colt are great characters.
Colt is closed off to finding his one, hurt before he trusts no woman, when Abbey comes along his fear gets the better of him and he hides the truth.
Avery is oblivious.
A great story full of interesting characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the to and fro between all of the cast.
How To Rope A Rough Cowboy: I loved this book. A great addition to the Silver Springs Ranch series.
Bianca is running from her parental destined future. She runs straight into Maverick, when exhausted and grouchy. Not the best first impression on both sides.
First impressions can be wrong though and sometimes a little spice in the mix can soften edges.
I loved the characters old and new, the plot kept me engaged and the story detail engrossed.
I thoroughly enjoyed these books and highly recommend this box set.

How To Rope A Cowboy is a great addition to your Cowboy collection as these are a great mix of alpha Cowboys.
Book One is How To Rope A Wild Cowboy and it features Grace who returns to the small town that her grandfather raised her in and where he had his doctor's clinic and now that he's passed away she's taking over the clinic. Which is where she meets the very dominant alpha Cowboy Emmet as well as a few other sexy alpha Cowboys. Grace is attracted to Emmet immediately. You really need to read their story it's a good one.
Book Two How To Rope A Rich Cowboy is Colt and Avery's story. They're both incredibly wealthy but have totally different outlooks on life. Colt is guarded due to being hurt before while Avery still believes in love although she's been burned. When these two get together watch the sparks fly!
Book Three How To Rope A Rough Cowboy We get Maverick and Bianca's story. This was a great read as these two were combustible together. Maverick isn't looking to settle down due to his childhood and he had his own preconceived ideas about Bianca but once Maverick started to get to know her he realized that they had more in common than anyone would think. That they really weren't all that different. This was a great story about secrets and the power of forgiveness. I would definitely recommend this boxset it's a wonderful collection of dominant alpha Cowboys.

This is a terrific way to grab the first three books in this fun series. With one simple click, you'll be all set to binge and get your read on. This is my independent, impartial review. Books included are:
How To Rope A Wild Cowboy (4 stars)
Emmett and Grace captured my interest from the get-go. They had chemistry that was easy to feel and when they got together the heat was steamy. The storyline was fun and I really liked watching the sparks fly between these two!
How to Rope a Rich Cowboy (5 stars)
Colt and Avery's book was super enjoyable. I loved the chemistry that these two shared and how well they balanced each other out as a couple. The story was highly entertaining and very engaging. Drama, emotion, steam and secrets make a potent brew goes down easily and has you feeling very swoony.
How to Rope a Rough Cowboy (4 stars)
I enjoyed the evolution of Maverick and Bianca's relationship from animosity to attraction to romance. The tension, sparks and chemistry were off the charts and things get quite steamy. The plot was engaging and I felt deeply invested in this couple. Secrets, drama and some very heavy emotional baggage cause many a stumbling block for this duo along the way.

I received this set with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.
In this set we meet 3 alpha men who meet the woman they are meant to be with. For example in How to Rope a Wild Cowboy: In this book we meet Grace O'Neal and Emmett Benson. When his book opens 3 cowboys are bringing a 4th in to a clinic the same clinic Grace is now the doctor of. Grace is back Winter Park after the death of her last relative her grandfather. He willed to her his clinic and his home. After working for years as a trauma doctor in an ER she was ready for a change of pace. What she didn't count on was this cowboy. Emmett knows what he wants and he sticks to it. He is more comfortable around the animals so works hard so he doesn't have to work the office or deal directly this most people. When a horse throws him and sends him to the clinic he meets the doctor there that he just can't get out of his head. He thinks if he can have her it will just be for one night so no harm in having a little wager with his boss. Will these two find a HEA or will the past make the future impossible?
This is an amazing set by this author. Each story will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

He thinks if he can have her it will just be for one night so no harm in having a little wager with his boss. Will these two find a HEA or will the past make the future impossible?
This is an amazing set by this author. Each story will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Get ready to kick back, start reading - and not want to get up until you've turned the last page. I love to read a series in sequence and one after another and this collection of the first three books in the Silver Springs Ranch fits the bill perfectly! It introduces the ranch in its beautiful setting and a whole cast of hot, dominant cowboys, all waiting to find the right woman to rope in - or get roped in by? I'm sure it's tough to give each of them a completely new and intriguing story all their own - but Anya does is masterfully and with a lot of surprising twists! We have a Wrangler falling in love with the new doctor in town, the ranch's owner having to re-think his future because of a scientist with a nomadic lifestyle and last but not least, the Head Horse Master getting caught up with a British socialite on the run from her engagement. All of the books are VERY hot and steamy, but also full of funny and tender moments. A delight and definitely a great addition to my keeper shelf!

*** Free book for an honest review ***
HOW TO ROPE A WILD COWBOY – This story is emotional as well as hot. I like the journey they take from two so wholly independent people to two people that end up loving each other. The brings to light to never give up on love.
HOW TO ROPE A RICH COWBOY – Sometimes trying to hide who you are can back fire because the person you love already see you for who you are. I loved this one because it shows that two people that are opposites can truly find love in each other and making a mistake doesn’t make it an end to that love. This a page turner as you get wrapped in the story between these two. The hot scenes are just hot enough to make you sweat but not take away from the story itself.
HOW TO ROPE A ROUGH COWBOY – The characters are so opposite that you will think there is any way for them to form a relationship. But as the story unfolds the are drawn together like a moth to a flame. As with all her books that I have read the scenes are hot and the story strong.

This is the first three books in The Silver Springs Ranch Series in one great box set. Book One is How To Rope a Wild Cowboy and it is Emmett and Grace's story. Book Two is Now To Rope a Rich Cowboy and it is Colt and Avery's story. Book Three is How To Rope a Rough Cowboy and it is Maverick and Bianca's story. This box set contains three standalone books each one is about a different couple and everything that they have to go through to get there happy ending. There are twists and turns along the way and I couldn't put it down as it was so well written and a real page turner along with great characters and storyline. This is the first time that I have read anything by Anya Summers but definitely not the last as it was a brilliant read and definitely worth reading and I look forward to reading more of her books in the future.

This is a 3 book box set - different couples, different story as to how they meet and their relationship.
I found them easy to read, but repetitive with the Dominant/submissive theme throughout them all. They are part of a larger group of friends and co-workers on a ranch, all Doms and there is even Cabin X on the land which is used for BDSM scenes and play.
All the men are keen to introduce the women to BDSM, they are eager to engage. There is also a bit of a 'stretch' to the story as they all immediately jump in to sex, and in book 1, Emmett and Grace are patient and Doctor so it is a bit silly that she agrees to his requests knowing she should not be crossing the line. I liked book 2 as Avery is not prepared to simply accept and know her place being strong, independent and challenges Colt. In book 3, Bianca and Maverick each have their own issues and secrets which may not smooth the road to happiness.

Anya Summers has written a 5-star 3-book box set. This box set is the stories of Grace and Emmett, Avery and Colt, and Bianca and Maverick. The ladies come to the Silver Springs Ranch for one reason or another. The three men are Alpha Dom's and when they meet the ladies, they somehow know that they are submissive. The guys have things that they need to work out before they realize what they want with the ladies. Each couple at one time go their different way and neither one is happy.
If you enjoy reading about Alpha Dom's and their sassy sub's that don't take any of their bull outside of the bedroom, this is the box set for you. These ladies know what they want and go after it.
Will each couple get what they want in the end?
This was a wonderful box set and I would recommend it to anyone.

Three Great Ways to Rope a Cowboy
…Wild Cowboy - On a scale of one to ten for alpha-ness, Emmett is a 20, he’s so masculine. But that doesn’t make Grace a door mat, oh no, she stands up for herself outside the bedroom. My favourite part was when Emmett realized he was in love; he was absolutely gobsmacked!
… Rich Cowboy - What a fantastic read! Colt and Avery have some of the most combustible chemistry and definitely the fastest hello to “ooooh” I think I’ve ever read. This story is lushly detailed and completely absorbing. I loved every word of it!
… Rough Cowboy - The chemistry between Maverick and Bianca (One Cowboy + One Posh Brit) was hotter than a wildfire! I loved how they channeled their snipping into heat in the bedroom; each time seemed bitter and hotter. Anya Summers writes the yummiest cowboys - swoon...

'How To Rope A Cowboy' box set by Anya Summers contains three separate stories with strong, sexy cowboys finding love with their feisty, sassy women. There is plenty of drama along with passion in this series. Each book centers on one couple with the background of Silver Springs Ranch which ties each of the books together. Each book is well-written and well developed.
Ms. Summers has written fabulous books with great characters, interesting plots, and wonderful dialogue. The stories are emotional, with some angst, laughs, secrets, family issues, passion, and plenty of steam. I enjoyed these books and highly recommend them to anyone who likes to ride a cowboy.

I had read one of these stories before and I jumped at the chance to read and review this whole series. LOVE. As in I love this series. So hot and fun to read. One of the best things about this series is that it’s a series that shows real Dom/sub relationships. Well yes you say, maybe confused. What I mean is that this is more than what I call a “spanking book” where the only “power exchange” is the Dom spanking the sub because she broke his rules. Too many books that I have read lately have said that they were the former when really they were the latter. If you like this kind of thing I can recommend this series as a well written one. Enjoy.

Subject Matter Distasteful . . .
Titles included in this set are:
• HOW TO ROPE A WILD COWBOY
• HOW TO ROPE A RICH COWBOY
• HOW TO ROPE A ROUGH COWBOY
I really enjoy cowboy-themed stories, but I hadn’t remembered when I accepted this box set for review that this particular author likes kink. By the time the submission and spanking garbage began, I no longer had any interest in these books. Those who like kink may enjoy it. But I see absolutely no need to put this kind of behavior in a decent cowboy story line.
Clear warnings in the ARC blurb would have been greatly appreciated to avoid this situation.

Three cowboy Doms that find their strong women close by in unexpected situations. One needs the local new doctor to patch him up. One meets a scientist staying secretly in a cabin and in trouble. The last one meets a true princess who stays at the ranch and both have troubled backstories and hurt by their families. The characters are strong and determined, if not a little quirky. The storylines are well written with plenty of drama, problems to deal with, sparks flying, and surprises. Loved this set and can now binge read the entire this again.

I know that I can always count on Anya Summers to delivery a great story and this compilation does not disappoint. These 3 books are all completely standalone and you can easily pick up any story to start with. This is actually a bonus because, although How to Rope a Wild Cowboy is book #1, it's my least favourite. Book 2 (How to Rope a Rich Cowboy) is my standout with the characters being wonderful. This is a great compilation to lose yourself in with some good storyline and wonderful characters.

These stories in a box together are a real bargain. Three good stories together about different people in the same town / ranch are just so good. The storylines are good and the characterization is somehow so well written down. I love a good box set like this one, with individual stories that still interact with one another but not three stories with cliffhangers - which I just really can not tolerate... So overall this box set is really worthy of the fabulous four stars I am giving it here.

I love Anya Summers!! The Cowboys of Silver Springs Ranch work at a working dude ranch for tourists by day and are the Doms of Silver Springs at night. All three of these books have hot alpha cowboy Doms, smart, beautiful, independent submissives. Their stories are well written, compelling, fast paced, sizzling, full of chemistry and steam. There is a bit a drama and so much more. Awesome read and great boxed set.

This is a fantastic set of books for over a long weekend read session!! I really enjoyed the stories for each of these couples and want to read more when they become available - IF you do not like VERY HOT sex scenes - these are not for you!! The characters are all fun and of course there is always some problems that they must overcome to reach their HEA!

This is a great collection of dominating cowboy romance novels! Anya brings the heat in this gathering of the first three books from the Silver Springs Ranch Series, and you won't want to stop after you've read these books. Strong cowboys have found their feisty women, but there is plenty of drama brought with the heat in this alluring assemblage.

There are three amazing stories about the sexy cowboys. I loved each story fot its own. Each story is a standalone, I could not decide, which one I enjoyed the most. But be careful, the stories are really captivating and it was hard for me to stop reading once I began.
It will not be my last stories of Anya Summers.
