Cowboys & Wedding Woes

Rate this book
She’s from the rival ranch next door. He’s trying to save his family legacy. Will his secret ruin their chance at happiness?

Adeline Callahan is hardworking, beautiful, speaks her mind, and desperately needs a husband. None of her sisters can even date until there’s a ring on her finger. But the local boys are scared of her headstrong nature and her tough, ranch-owning father.

Sean Baker is bound and determined to do anything it takes to keep his family ranch thriving. As the oldest of six boys, he’s in charge after his dad passed away suddenly the previous year. All his brothers have found their soul mates, but Sean has sacrificed a social life and the horse training he loves to fill his dad’s shoes.

One day, Adeline from the rival ranch next door approaches Sean with a proposition. Marry her, combine the ranches, and everyone will benefit. A modern day arranged marriage of sorts. Sean laughs and tells her no way.

But then he learns a secret that threatens to destroy his family. Suddenly, Adeline’s crazy marriage idea doesn’t sound like such a bad idea.

Can he win her heart and solve both of their problems? Or will his secret ruin their chance for love…

Cowboys & Wedding Woes is a sweet, heartwarming romance. This well written book reminded me of the need for honest communication. Sean would have been so much more comfortable if he had just been honest with Adeline. I know he wanted to fix things himself, but the ranch finances were a huge issue and there was no short term fix. I loved watching this unlikely couple fall in love and was grateful that Ms. Dean managed to find the perfect ending to this story.

Another great book to the series! This one brings Sean and Adeline's story. What starts as a business marriage turns into so much more. The author brings strong characters and weaves an entertaining story, moves it fluidly and delivers a terrific story I loved reading.

This is the sixth book in this series but can be read and enjoyed if you haven’t read the previous ones.

Sean Baker has taken over the running of the family’s ranch after the death of his father. All of his brothers have found love in the last year or so. He says he doesn’t need anyone in his life – but does he???

Adeline Callahan is the oldest daughter of the ranch next door. Because of her fathers rules she must marry before her sisters can.

She proposes a business arrangement with Sean. Marry and combine the ranches to build better businesses.

This is just the start of their story. Will a business arrangement lead to happiness or will many secrets ruin their chance?

This is a nice sweet clean story.

I received a free copy of this book and freely and honestly leave my review.

Interesting storyline. The H was an uncommunicative derb most of the time, trying to right things before they became worse and they always did before he could change their course. He was constantly trying not to dig the hole deeper while falling in love and digging the hole deeper. The h was a closet romantic who had given up on her own HEA and finding love. Two hard headed individuals meet, agree on a financially beneficial marriage without emotions, fall in love and experience all of the emotions while trying to protect themselves from said love while falling deeper in love. Yep, round and around we go.

Cowboys & Wedding Woes

I really liked this story. It was about Sean and Adeline. Both were single, both ran their family ranch and neither was married. Adeline decided to ask Sean about getting married., forming an agreement like in the old days. Joining of their ranches would be more profitable for both of them. Sean was not ready to do this and turned her down. He met with complications on the funds for his ranch and decided what Adeline suggested would solve his problems. More to come, enjoy their journey

Cowboys & Wedding Woes

I always enjoy reading Natalie Dean’s stories and this one is no exception. Sean is the last son without a significant other. When Adeline first proposes to him for her own reasons, he immediately refuses. After hearing the ranch needs additional income he reconsiders. Sean then proposes to her in public and makes matters worse by lying to her father in order to get his approval. The more they are together the more they seem to fall for each other. What happens when Sean’s secret is discovered?

Sean and Adeline
This down-right appealing romance brought a smile to my face a joy to my heart I loved it. The characters face real issues and the author showed them as realistic dealing with things like a flawed human would. I think that is what I like so much about this author is the weaving of real with an imagined tale. It is excellent writing. This is a wonderful addition to this series. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.

This emotional book will immediately grab you and not let you go. Adeline surprised Sean with her request, then he decided to to go for it. I loved how their relationship grew. So many ups and downs, loved the detailed descriptions throughout. This book will keep you turning those pages from beginning to end, you won’t want to stop.

Neat book

I enjoyed reading how the Bakers found love, ending with this book about Sean. While I understand financial panic (both my husband and I have serious health issues), I kept getting frustrated that he couldn't come clean. His idea to leave the women, including his mother, out of the discussion really made me upset.

The fact that he did finally win his wife was fantastic. Now his mom needs to find love. And what about the Callahans?

So far, this book has been my favorite in the series. I didn't like how these MCs kept working at odds with each other, but they had good motives for the most part. They were interesting people, too. The problems seemed believable enough, so the plot was a win for me. If you enjoy clean, contemporary, cowboy romance, then you might enjoy this book.

I truly enjoyed this book! The characters are well written and very relatable even in the time period difference from the reader. One thing everyone should take from this story, communication is vital in all relationships!

entertaining!

This was a fun book, to see how, just as in real life, we sometimes dig our holes deeper out of ignorance, desperation, or just plain not thinking things through.
I recommend both this book, and this series.

great book!

I can’t get over how things can get so messed up and hurt others because of our own stupidly thinking we can fix everything by ourselves. But things come out one way or another. God knows.

Cowboys and Wedding Woes

This story is of a young couple who fought all the time and then fell in love only to have the bride reject her husband because he was keeping a secret from her. This is my review and mine alone. Norma Gorrill

Two Weddings?

Wow love is in the air. But Sean has to get Adeline over what she sees as a lie that dooms the love they found. But a contract with Shane’s operations will fix a lot of the Baker Boys problems. I would say the two ranches are filling up with couples and kids.
