What’s a little covert matchmaking between friends?
Lucy Aveline’s ex has a knack for making her feel small and helpless. She’d avoid him entirely, but he still owns a piece of her heart in the form of the pets he purchased for her but kept for himself. She visits Rosie and Jasmine when she can, vows to avoid another controlling boyfriend by staying single, and focuses on her large animal veterinary practice. Or that’s the plan until some longtime family friends attempt to set her up with former rodeo star Hollis Price. Lucy convinces them to drop the plot only when she promises to find Hollis a good match herself.
Hollis is more concerned with surviving his first Christmas after losing his dad than with finding love. Dad’s champion horse is aging, and rumors started by an unhappy client threaten the horse training business Hollis inherited from his father. When the kind and talented Lucy offers friendship, he accepts simply to add cheer to the season.
It’s not long before his interest in Lucy deepens, but so do problems at his ranch. Saving his father’s legacy begins to look as impossible as earning Lucy’s trust. Especially when her ex continues to use her love of animals against her and she won’t stop pushing her single friends at Hollis long enough to notice she’s the one he’s falling for.
Return to Redemption Ridge, Colorado and enjoy the faith, friendships, and forever-afters in this Christian Christmas Romance.
Matchmaking the Cowboy is book 9 in the Christmas in Redemption Ridge series, but each of the books can be read on their own.

MY THOUGHTS
I really liked Hollis and Lucy. Hollis was such a gentleman. So selfless and willing to do anything for the ones he cared about. I loved his special relationship with all the horses. He had a real talent with them. Lucy was kind and compassionate. It was easy to see how much she cared about the animals. I really enjoyed watching Hollis and Lucy get to know each other better.
Drake, on the other hand, was one of the most despicable guys I’ve ever read about. The way he treated Lucy was horrible. He was so controlling and manipulative. I really wanted to see him get his comeuppance.
This book was a good mix of funny and serious. There were parts that had me laughing out loud, and others that had me near tears. I loved it so much and highly recommend it. If you’re looking for a faith-filled Christmas story that will give you all the feels, grab a copy of this book. You won’t be disappointed.
I received a copy of this book and voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and comments are my honest opinion.
FIVE STARS
