Bought by the Cowboy

Roping Her Curves #1

by Alexa Riley

Bull riding and beer. That's all the big arena in town is known for, even though Tracy works herself ragged every night of the week to make it a popular rodeo stop. Too bad her dad owns the place and is in debt up to his eyes. What's his solution? Make Bronco an offer he can't refuse.

Bronco isn't looking to buy an arena, especially one that's run down and falling in. But when the owner says the deal comes with Tracy, how can he refuse?

Warning: grab your spurs and giddy up! Find out if this cowboy can hang on for more than eight seconds… and how fast he falls in love.

something didn't work for me in this one..it was way to weird ? i guess.
that start honestly left me feeling kind of weird it was all to much i dunno.
It leaked chemistry and there was no build up at all..

Did I read this? Yes. Did I like it? Yes. Am I admitting I read this over the top, instalove, extremely sexy story? Yes. As a fat lady who was born and raised in Texas and did all the cliche Texas things like rodeos and country music concerts, there was even a rodeo team at my high school, I have been around cowboys. It has been my experience that quite of them don’t like fat women. I admit I like a sexy cowboy story where the big hunky cowboy is like my women with some meat on their bones and has his way with the curvy heroine against a wall. Also, he tells off other fat phobic people. I definitely recommend this story if you like curvy heroines and heroes that are over the top possessive cowboys.

wow esta historia es el epítome del romanticismo 😍😍😍

ojalá que un vaquero apareciera de la nada, y además de comprarme, se pensara que soy suya en todos los sentidos posibles y con el derecho a decidir sobre mí 😍😍😍 tremendo lo que todxs deberíamos aspirar

Fue súper aburrido, la trama tenía potencial, pero al final del día no se supo desarrollar. Es una lástima, pero no valió la pena el regreso de AR con la temática cowboy. No lo recomiendo, en conclusión es aburrido, la chica no tiene confianza y se enamora del primero que se la da y el papá de ella parece más como que si se quería enrollar con ella más que otra cosa.

I give this 3.5⭐️ this was okay. Some good spice. Bronco is very protective and possessive but something about this was a miss for me.

Es increíble la cantidad de drama que te mente la autora en un libro de menos de 100 páginas js

Bonita corta historia con su crescendo y final feliz.

Yep, this felt like the classic old AR stuff. T'was good.

[Granger McGringot · Rating 3 out of 5]

Well this one was way much better than the villain/superhero series. Had more stories and depth. The tension built up to the extra hot smuttiness also good.

Hello Cowboy 🤠 Protective, Possessive, Smart, Strong, and Delicious, yepp… I’d be in love with this Cowboy too😉
How wickedly awesome that the second Bronco is the owner of CircleC, he kicks out that scumbag of a Father (who’s only 1% of decency had kept Tracy safe, even if for selfish, greedy, disgusting reasons)
😳😮 talk about surprises with the bull, the PBR/Cowboys revenge/justice act, and the ending + epilogue!! (I don’t want to spoil the goods..lol)

🤎one of the sweetest things I’ve ever heard (read): “I’m going to be right beside you the whole time and if you get scared, you take some of my strength. I’ve got enough for the both of us.”🫠🫠🫠

Alexa Riley has done it again, written an enjoyable steamy romance with great characters and a beautifully sweet love story and done it effortlessly. This book was worth the money spent (just like she was)... I saw no errors (Editors did a phenomenal job). There is nothing that I would revise or change about this book. Overall it was a great read that I want more of (ie the romance story between the sheriff and her right hand lady would be great). I love Alexa Riley and I always look forward to reading more of their books.

I loved the setting of this book and that our heroine was able to keep her sense of identity after meeting Vronco. Sometimes these girls in AR books get caught up in the hero and he molds them entirely to his likes and dislike. Tracy was able to keep the boots and hard labor job that she loved so much. Bronco was hot, I loved the scene where he roped the bull, but I didn't like that he basically gaslit Tracy from being mad about getting rid of her trailer. He didn't take her anger seriously at all and then the author wrote Tracy to just give in because he's hot. :/ nah girl stand up.

Libro corto, escenas picantes aseguradas.
La protagonista es tan sosa que da hasta rabia.
No puedo describir al tipo porque sinceramente solo puedo pensar que es una bandera roja andante, muy guapo y todo pero con actitudes que dan ganas de alejarse y no volver a verlo. Y no voy a comenzar a hablar del papá de ella porque sinceramente decir que es un “asqueroso” es lo más amable que puedo decir de él.

Who doesn’t want an over the top cowboy who is built like a brick house??? I mean I don’t know anyone. It was everything you love about Alexa Riley books. Over the top, instalove, curvy virgin heroine. Bronco shows Tracey she has more strength than she gives herself credit for. I loved their epilogue also! Daisy is a firecracker.

"Bought by the Cowboy" is the story of Bronco and Tracy.

The curvy heroine lives with her deadbeat father, and is enslaved into working for him. Treated like trash, things take a turn when she is "sold" to the hero, the man she's always had a crush on..

Sexy, sweet with a bit of drama and HEA, a bit of daddy play and dirty talk in this too.

Safe
3.5/5

A very hot beginning to the series

Tracy lives and works at Triple C rodeo but feels underappreciated by her father the current owner. He puts it for sale and it's purchased by Bronco and when these two meet the pull between them is undeniable and beautiful and strong.

[Rosa Mari · Rating 2 out of 5]

Tracy trabaja en un rodeo y Ana su trabajo, pero odia no tener la confianza en si misma para tener más valor. Pero su suerte cambiar cuando su padre vende la propiedad con ella incluida... Pero no a cualquiera sino... A Bronco. El mejor cowboy del rodeo 😜

La verdad me gustó es una historia corta toñoxa de alexa riley aunque el tema de que parece que la compró no me gusta mucho la verdad por la cantidad de páginas de doy por bien servida la recomiendo para pasar la tarde

[Catalina Riveros · Rating 5 out of 5]

Que Bronco piense eso aunque sea por un segundo me rompe el corazón. Puede que aún seamos nuevos, pero pensé que lo que sentíamos era algo profundo. Para mí, era el tipo de amor del que siempre oí hablar a la gente, pero nunca creí que fuera posible. No hasta Bronco.
