Cowboy Wild: A Novel (Four Corners Ranch)

Hunter McCloud is the wildest cowboy of all…until he meets the one woman even more untamed than him…

After growing up around Hunter McCloud, Elsie Garrett considers herself immune to his particular brand of cowboy. Her brother's best friend is too big, too broad, too everything for comfort. But when relationship-shy Elsie decides it's finally time for her to get some romantic experience, Hunter suddenly might be useful after all. Maybe he, with his many casual hookups, is the perfect cowboy to teach her how to flirt?

Elsie is the best horse wrangler around, but Hunter can see she doesn't know anything about men-orphaned as a child and brought up by her brothers, she's so wild she's practically feral. But Hunter has always looked out for her, and he's not about to stop now. Until Hunter realizes he's playing with fire. Elsie might not understand the chemistry slowly building between them, but he does, and it's burning stronger and hotter than anything he's ever experienced. And when Elsie decides to act on it, Hunter knows that it could threaten to consume them both.

In the bonus novella Her Wayward Cowboy, can a returning cowboy win back the love of the woman he left behind?

I love the Four Corners series and hope there are many more books to come! Elsie is a rough and tumble gal and having her sparring nemesis Hunter coach her on how to flirt is hilarious. Because I knew what would happen. Both scarred from damaged childhoods, they are so alike. Hunter slips over the edge but it takes some more convincing for Elsie to follow. I loved how vulnerable Hunter allowed himself to be, despite his walls. Only Hunter could get away with referring to her as a varmint as he’s declaring his love—- that was quite humorous. I am patiently waiting for Gus and to see who will win his heart. My heart goes out it him in each Four Corners book.

A trip to Oregon with a Maisey Yates story is always a joy! The third book in the Four Corners Ranch series is Hunter and Elsie's story and was quick to catch this reader's heart. It was slower paced than some in the series and drug a tad but the characters and setting always pick up the slack with this series. Warmth and sass steal the show when this worldly brother's best friend teaches the spunky youngster a thing or two. I'm looking forward to more to come in this series as always!

I received an arc from NetGalley and this is my honest opinion. Both stories in this book are about trauma and healing and finding love through all this. Four Corners is a ranch of broken families and tragedy but two in this book find a love that brings healing to broken hearts. I hope to be able to read Gus’s story someday. Great read and an author I would definitely recommend.

Cowboy Wild Maisey Yates February 21, 2023 Elsie Garret was always the baby of the Garrett clan. Her brothers loved her, helped raise her along with the other men on the Four Corners Ranch. She was born in a barn and left in the hay by her mother who was tired of being pregnant and having children to clean up after. Her father was only interested in the children doing his work while he drank. He beat his wife until one day she left, leaving Sawyer and Wolf to take care of the ranch and Elsie. They could suffer from his drinking and ugly, nasty self. At 24 years, she decided it was time to find someone to help her become the woman she was. She could enjoy life despite the ugly memories. The Sullivan families had an open door for her and the other in the Four Corners. Elsie was a true horsewoman. She learned her trade from the McClouds, especially Hunter. Now she was helping set up the ranch for McClouds Landing to become a center for equine therapy. Gus, the eldest McCloud brother was spot on when he hired her to help with clients and train horses. She worked with Hunter on a daily basis. Although he was truthful, handsome and an incredible man, she thought of him as a brother until the night at the bar when another cowboy asked her to dance and became a bit too friendly for Hunter’s liking. Cowboy Wild will be published by Harlequin on February 21, 2023. I am appreciative of their allowing me to read Maisey Yates latest in the Four Corner Ranch series via NetGalley. She has the ability to give her characters honest, expressive thoughts and feelings. Both Hunter and Elsie suffered a childhood of being neglected and shunned by their parents. Each kept the loss of love tucked away inside only for it to creep out in their dreams. Cowboy Wild is an excellent story of family and the capability to circle their siblings with love and understanding. Four Corners is an outstanding series with Cowboy Wild being an enchanting story. Do Enjoy! !
