Hello Hello Sunnies! I hope you are all staying safe during these crazy times. My Kind of Cowboy was my first read for May and I thoroughly enjoyed it, RC Ryan writes easy to read stories and easy to love characters.
Blurb:
Brand Merrick is a take-charge cowboy who loves a challenge and being in the thick of the action on his family ranch. When Brand takes a fall from his horse and the town doctor orders physical therapy, he doesn't intend to rest for long. They make a compromise that the physical therapist will come stay on the ranch for six weeks so Brand can do his exercises between his duties running the ranch. But Brand wasn't expecting to be working with beautiful, tough city-girl Avery.
Avery Grant has no patience for the sexy cowboy who makes it clear therapy is a waste of his time. She won't back down, especially since she came to Wyoming for another reason... to get away from the mysterious threats she keeps receiving. But the threats have followed her to the Merrick ranch. And soon, Brand isn't feeling quite so hostile toward his new therapist... in fact, keeping her safe becomes his only priority.

The Review: 3.5/5 Stars
The book starts with a bang. It opens with an introduction to a tragic accident many years ago that forever changed the Merrick's family life.
That being said, as with every RC Ryan book I have read to date, it had that 'feel good' feeling in the end. The story was sweet, funny, and charming.
The whole family dynamics added to the 'feel good' vibe of the book. Every single secondary character was well put together and could easily have his/her own book at some point.
Brand is a cowboy through and through and would rather deal with pain than to stop working to do some therapy. Avery is used to strong minded patients and knows how to get her way.
Their personalities and view points didn't really crash for long. Brand was willing to give it a try very early on and their friendship/relationship developed from there.
They had chemistry and worked well together. His protective and careful nature and her kind and watchful one matched.
Although I really enjoyed the book I think overall it sounded a little too similar to other books, books by RC Ryan herself and other cowboy romances. I even went back to read another review I wrote for one of her books and found I used the exact same words to describe certain aspects of it.
So do I recommend it? most definitely!!! I read the book in two sittings. Just don't go in expecting anything new and refreshing. If you usually love cowboy romances you will love this one too.
