Ratings and reviews

This is book 9 of 9. I have enjoyed every single one! This book was sweet and clean. Cassie Diaz is the cowgirl and experiences a bad accident at a rodeo as an effort to save the family ranch. Things don't go well for her as a result of the accident and then she meets Bentley Monroe. Cassie is drawn to this man and a relationship begins. This was definitely one of the best in the series. Loved it. It is simply a delightful read and if you love western romance you will definitely want to read this one. I enjoyed the characters very much! Such a good book! I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author. All thoughts are my own.

It's no secret that I love this whole series! It's a great day when each new book comes out! I love the Monroe cousins! I secretly admit that so far, Bentley is my favorite! That's saying a lot because after I read each book, I say THAT cousin is my favorite but looking back on all 9 books so far, I definitely say Bentley is my favorite! I love how he was so quiet and unassuming but he's a deep thinker and his feeling run deep. People think that he doesn't have a lot to say and doesn't really notice things that are going on but they couldn't be further from the truth. Although he's shy and quiet, he's called the "pied piper" of children and animals by Cassie which confuses him! because he doesn't really know a lot about either one of them! However, I think it's because they both know he listens to them and he accepts them for who they are. Cassie is in a whole lotta trouble. Her family's ranch is in financial trouble and she's having a health crisis that she hasn't shared with anyone. Bentley's the one that happens to notice it! The story line was a bit slower than other books but that is because of the characters' natures. I loved the little children involved - so precocious! Check this book out

A Cowgirl's Secret: A Clean Romance" (The Mountain Monroes Book 9) by Melinda Curtis is a wonderful read. I loved Bentley and Cassie's story. This was another fabulous addition to this series. This story is packed with romance, family, small-town life, humor, entertaining and interesting characters, twists, and more. I can't wait to see what happens next in Second Chance and with the Monroes. Highly recommend to all fans of clean romance, family, and series.

About the author

Melinda grew up on an isolated sheep ranch, where mountain lions had been seen and yet she roamed unaccompanied. Being a rather optimistic, clueless of danger, sort she took to playing "what if" games that led her to become an author. She spends days trying to figure out new ways to say "He made her heart pound." That might sound boring, but the challenge keeps her mentally ahead of her 3 kids and college sweetheart husband.
