REVIEW:A ROGUE COWBOY’S SECOND CHANCE is the first instalment in Stephanie Rowe’s contemporary, adult HART RANCH BILLIONAIRES romance series. This is billionaire rancher Brody Hart, and country music star Tatum Crosby’s story line.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Tatum and Brody) A ROGUE COWBOY’S SECOND CHANCE follows the rekindling romance and relationship between thirty-three year old, billionaire rancher Brody Hart, and thirty-two year old country music start Tatum Crosby. Brody and Tatum grew up in the foster care system but abuse and neglect found our couple one of many teens living under bridge, they had come to call home. But after profession his love for Tatum, Brody married someone else, pushing our heroine out of his life. Fast forward to present day wherein Tatum Crosby is a country music star but a star whose life is quickly spiralling out of control. From an unknown stalker to an ex who refuses to back down, Tatum finds herself on the run, into the arms of the man she once loved. Enter billionaire rancher Brody Hart. What ensues is the rebuilding romance and relationship between Brody and Tatum, and the potential fall-out as Tatum’s past demands everything, and a stalker reveals a story of unrequited love.

Brody Hart is a fixer, a protector but a man who knows he screwed up fifteen years earlier. Having never stopped loving our story line heroine, Brody finds himself rescuing Tatum when everything spirals out of control, a spiral that comes with a threat against her life, and the possibility of never having the chance to say he’s sorry. Tatum Crosby’s heart was destroyed the day Brody pushed her out of his life but it was the push that forced Tatum on the road to stardom, a road that was lonely in more ways than one. Reconnecting with her past gave Tatum the reassurance of protection and love, and with it, the determination to change her path going forward.

The relationship between Tatum and Brody is one of second chances; a rekindling romance and relationship between two people destroyed by one man’s need to protect those unable to protect themselves. Believing Tatum has always been his happily ever after, Brody is determined to prove she is worthy of his love The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including Tatum’s band mates, ex-husband and manager Donny; and all eight of Brody’s foster siblings. The requisite evil has many familiar faces.

A ROGUE COWBOY’S SECOND CHANCE is a story of family, betrayal, jealousy and love. The fast paced, character driven premise is intriguing and entertaining; the romance is seductive; the characters are energetic, determined, and charismatic.
