The perfect follow-up to the previous &#8220;Betting on Hope&#8221;, it not only included a brand new romance between Monahan brother Bo and Abby Knightly, but the continuing story lines involving side characters add even more interest. <\/p>\n<p>After visiting and falling in love with Wishing Springs, Texas with Hope in the first book, it is no wonder that Abby chose the cozy little town as a place to start over. Still grieving over major loss in her life, Abby has no desire to even think about another man but when Bo finds himself with a challenge he cannot handle alone, Abby&#8217;s resistance is poor.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With bigger-than-life characters who are also believable, &#8220;Counting on a Cowboy&#8221; is a story of healing, forgiveness, and love. I reached the end of this wonderful tale much too quickly and cannot wait for the next installment to find out what lucky lady will make confirmed bachelor Jarrod change his mind.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>This book was provided for review by LitFuse Publicity.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>After losing everything she held dear, Abby never wants to love again. But a certain cowboy may just spur her to wonder if love might be worth the risk.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Running from a past that haunts her, Abby Knightly is drawn to the cozy town of Wishing Springs, Texas. Maybe this small town could offer hope and healing and a future for Abby . . . if she\u2019s brave enough to reach out and take it by the reins.<\/p>\n<p>Bo Monahan isn\u2019t interested in the new romantic destination his little town has become\u2014or the women who might be looking at him like he\u2019s their next Mr. Right. Between taking care of his Pops and his growing stirrup business, he isn\u2019t looking for serious romantic commitments. But when the infant son he never knew about shows up at his doorstep, his world is turned upside down.<\/p>\n<p>This confirmed bachelor might not think he needs a wife, but he sure needs help. Even Abby can see that, and despite her best efforts to keep her distance, she can\u2019t help but be drawn to this new father-son duo. As Abby throws herself into helping Bo navigate fatherhood, hope sparks between them, revealing that maybe, just maybe, they can navigate their dark pasts and emerge together into a future as bright as the Texas sun itself.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/debraclopton.com\/counting-on-a-cowboy\/\" target=\"_blank\">Learn more and purchase a copy.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-18443\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/DebraClopton.jpg\" alt=\"Debra Clopton\" width=\"150\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/DebraClopton.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/DebraClopton-90x150.jpg 90w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>Debra Clopton is a multi-award winning novelist and has written more than 22 novels.
