Description

From the bestselling series...

When his secret baby is unexpectedly dropped off at his ranch, Beau Stephens asks his best friend, Lucy, to be his temporary nanny.

Becoming a single dad overnight was certainly not part of confirmed bachelor Beau's plans. Neither was becoming someone's husband, but when an old fling claims he's a father, he's determined to do the right thing.

Lucy's plans to leave for Seattle and start a new life come to a screeching halt when her best friend needs help. She's harbored a secret crush on Beau for many years but it's too late now. He's about to become a family man. Unless this is all a big mistake.

What truly makes a family, and can Beau and Lucy find a way to make their own?

  • Amazing book

    This has now become my favorite book by this author taking over the top spot from Once Upon a Charming Bookshop. This book is a beautifully written romance, but we also get to see just how the ladies of SORROW step up when they’re needed. Beau finds himself an unexpected dad, when Rachel shows up with Charlotte, six months old, and says she’s Beau’s daughter. She says she needs a vacation. I’d like to give her a vacation she wouldn’t soon forget. I guess you can tell I don’t like Rachel. Of course the ladies aren’t going to look after Charlotte for Beau, but they do make sure he has anything he could possibly need to help him out. Beau asks Lucy to be his nanny and since she’s saving money to move to Seattle, she agrees. I’m not going to leave any spoilers, but I bet you’ll fall in love with most of these characters and this amazing story. I absolutely loved the character list at the end of the book as well. I received an advanced reader copy of this book and this is my voluntary and honest review.

    Beau is Stone Ridge's forever bachelor and Lucy is his friend with more than friend feelings. She has finally given up on Beau seeing her as anything other than his friend until Beau's life is suddenly changed and he needs her help. Loved this story and the characters in Stone Ridge.

    UNEXPECTED COWBOY DAD is the seventh in Heatherly Bell's The Cowboys of Stone Ridge series, an entertaining small-town setting where meddling runs rampant. Heatherly Bell's story is almost unexpectedly poignant. The series has been a tongue-in-cheek about a town so afloat in eligible bachelors that they have created a matchmaking handbook of sorts, and in this story, all eyes turn to one of the last cowboys standing, Beau Stephens. He's juggling his family construction business with property management on the side, and enjoying being footloose and fancy-free when one of his former flings drops off a sweet baby girl, declaring him the father, before she takes off for parts unknown. Beau thanks his lucky stars and his family and friends who step up to support him in his new fatherhood gig, especially Lucy Lorenzo, his sister's best friend and one of his as well. Lucy's long had more than friendly feelings towards Beau, which is why she's determined to move out and move on with her life. The surprise baby is truly a catalyst not only for Beau and her to acknowledge and act upon their emotions but also for her to consider and resolve her feelings about her own childhood. A lovely read that reinforces the support and joy to be found in familial connections and the love of friends.
