Becket Weston
meets his match when he tries his bad boy skills on the wrong woman.
Reckless
With the Cowboy
The Westons
of Montana Book 2
by Elsa
Winckler
Genre:
Contemporary Small-Town Romance
Cowboy Becket
Weston likes women, plural, and has a reputation for breaking hearts. His
bad-boy behavior masks a deeper need to atone for past mistakes. His
side-hustle—using a pseudonym and posting comic drawings of ranch life on
social media—lets him explore life, love, and grief without being exposed. He
even has a following! But no amount of introspection can explain his
fascination with Eleanor Campbell—Main Street, Marietta’s newest shopkeeper.
She’s definitely not his type, so why does she keep turning up
in his drawings?
Ellie
Campbell isn’t one for staying long in any one place, but when she inherits
money from her grandmother and decides to open a yarn store in small-town
Marietta, it feels like she’s putting down roots. She’s not looking for a
relationship after one too many hard knocks, literally, but Becket
Weston gets under her skin like no other, igniting passion that’s impossible to
ignore.

A Family
With the Cowboy
The Westons
of Montana Book 1
Widowed
rancher Hayden Weston knows what it means to be responsible for his siblings,
his eight-year-old son, and the running of the huge family cattle ranch. Some
even call him a stern and grumpy taskmaster and they’re not exactly wrong. So
when Hayden discovers his son reading a storybook instead of doing chores, he
calls on Luke’s teacher to talk about priorities.
School
teacher Laura Anderson is new to Marietta, Montana, and has never—until
now—been reprimanded for encouraging a child to read. It doesn’t
help that sweet Luke’s father is the handsome cowboy with the amber eyes that
she met in Grey’s Saloon, or that she’s wildly attracted to him.
Sparks keep
flying as their paths keep crossing, but Hayden is determined not to give in to
his incomprehensible need to have, hold, and protect Laura from any type of
harm. He’s the one who’ll hurt her if he lets her stray too
close. He’s not ready to admit his feelings or commit to sharing his life with
her.
Even if love
comes tumbling in.

I have been
reading love stories for as long as I can remember and when I ‘met’ the classic
authors like Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell, Henry James The Brontë sisters,
etc. during my Honours studies, I was hooked for life. I married my college
boyfriend and soul mate and after 47 years, 3 interesting and wonderful
children and 4 beautiful grandchildren, he still makes me weak in the knees. We
are fortunate to live in the picturesque little seaside village of Betty's Bay,
South Africa with the ocean a block away and a beautiful mountain right behind
us. And although life so far has not always been an easy ride, it has always
been an exciting and interesting one! I like the heroines in my stories to be
beautiful, feisty, independent and headstrong. And the heroes must be strong
but possess a generous amount of sensitivity. They are of course, also
gorgeous! My stories typically incorporate the family background of the
characters to better understand where they come from and who they are when we
meet them in the story.

A family with the Cowboy
Elsa Winckler
I have always been fascinated by the unexplained and by ordinary people who see and experience the world differently – those with a sixth sense, those who feel things deeply, the empaths, the animal whisperers, the healers.
When planning the series on The Westons of Montana, some of these ideas slipped into the story and before I knew it, I was researching all things animal whisperers. What a fascinating and okay, yes, “weird” field. Once you open your mind and heart though, you realize it’s extraordinary and surprising rather than “strange”.
We meet Hayden Weston, the oldest brother in the first of four stories, A family with the Cowboy. As the oldest brother, he feels responsibility for the ranch, his two brothers, his sister and his mother. Ranching is in his blood, he loves what he does and is determined to manage the farm in a responsible, sustainable way while trying to be a dad and a mom to his eight-year-old son, Luke after his wife passed away.
His son’s new teacher in Marietta is an unexpected challenge, though. Not only because he blames her when he finds his son reading a book instead of doing his chores, but also because of the immediate attraction he feels towards her.
With a sister who knows things and can read his mind, a brother who clearly has some kind of problem but who doesn’t discuss it with him and another one who talks to animals, he has enough trouble. He doesn’t need more complications.
His path keeps crossing with that of the blue-eyed teacher though, and staying away from her becomes more and more difficult with every meeting.
Will he be brave enough to give love another chance?
I hope you enjoy Hayden’s and Laura’s story as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Thank you for stopping by and thank you for all the support!
