Review: Falling for the Cowgirl

Falling for the Cowgirl Falling for the Cowgirl by Jody Hedlund
My rating: 💛💛💛💛

I loved Ivy since the first-time readers were introduced to her spirity personality.

Trying to reach her dreams in a world where women had little right and were looked down on, she did not let challenges set her back. She was a take charge kind of women. Though her feistiness and eagerness did get her in trouble a time or two.

Jericho was a born hero with a longing to protect. Facing his struggles and concerns to find the right path for him was intriguing to watch as his character developed.

A “forbidden” love which includes strong chemistry, steamy kisses and heartbreak, it was difficult for this reader to enjoy their scenes together and feel the pain of a loss of future together.

Looking forward to the last book about rebellious Dillon.

About the book:


As the only girl in her family, and with four older brothers, Ivy McQuaid can rope and ride with the roughest of ranchers. She's ready to have what she's always longed for--a home of her own. She's set her heart on a parcel of land south of Fairplay and is saving for it with her winnings from the cowhand competitions she sneaks into.

After two years away, Jericho Bliss is back in South Park as an undercover Pinkerton agent searching for a war criminal. He has no intention of involving a woman in the dangerous life he leads, but one look at Ivy is all it takes for him to question the path he's set out for himself.

Even though Jericho tries to resist his longtime attraction to the beautiful and vivacious Ivy, he finds himself falling hard and fast for her. In the process, his worst fear comes true--he puts her smack dab in the middle of danger. With Ivy's life in the balance, will Jericho give her up once again, or will he find a way back to her, this time forever?

About the author:



Jody Hedlund is the author of over thirty historicals for both adults and teens and is the winner of numerous awards including the Christy, Carol, and Christian Book Award.


Jody lives in central Michigan with her husband, five busy children, and five spoiled cats. Although Jody prefers to experience daring and dangerous adventures through her characters rather than in real life, she’s learned that a calm existence is simply not meant to be (at least in this phase of her life!).

When she’s not penning another of her page-turning stories, she loves to spend her time reading, especially when it also involves consuming coffee and chocolate.
