After drinking a bottle of wine, Harper tells her business rival that she recently got engaged. Once the hangover wears off, Harper realizes she now needs a fake fiancé or to admit she lied. Wanting to avoid the backlash, she asks her childhood best friend for a favor.
She can pretend she’s not in love with him, but her traitorous body reveals otherwise.
Ethan Bishop will do anything for Harper, even if it’s crazy and means risking his heart. Pretending to be engaged to the woman he’s always loved proves to be difficult—especially when repressed feelings bubble to the surface.
He only wants to help, but everyone in his life sees through his façade.
It’s hard to know what’s real or fake when their private moments turn intimate. When they cross the line and fall between the sheets, the truth is undeniable.
Just as they feared, their friendship’s no longer the same. However, one thing’s certain—there’s no going back now.
**Kissing the Cowboy is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books or spin-off series, but if you prefer to read in order, start with Hitching the Cowboy as the characters and families do interconnect. Suggested for mature readers only.**
⭐️ 4 "Goat Farm" Stars ⭐️
Every single book in the Circle B Ranch Series is always highly anticipated by me. Needless to say I was ecstatic when Kissing the Cowboy landed on my kindle. We hadn’t seen a lot of Ethan Bishop in the previous novels, but friends to lovers romances always gets to me. Add the fake relationship trope and I was in heaven. Kennedy Fox delivered one again a beautiful slow burn romance filled with their trademark humor, sweetness and sensuality!
I was hooked from the first few pages, even if the progression of Ethan and Harper’s romantic relationship was really slow. I truly loved how their friendship was so powerful. In their every single action, it was clear the deep feelings that had for each other. Scared to lose this powerful bond between them, they both needed a little push to finally unveil what their hearts truly desired. When they entered this fake relationship, it was game over, sparks flying and true passion exploding.
Ethan was such a sweetheart! A tempting cowboy wholly devoted to his long-time friend, but also such a good brother. His heart was pure and he easily had me under his charm. Harper was also an interesting heroine. A dedicated and hard-working small business owner.
I devoured this novel in one sitting and went to bed so late! I couldn’t let go of this lovely couple! The different members of the Bishop family and friends brought smiles to my face and made me crack up. I appreciate how they’re always teasing each other. It’s clear this family is tight and loving. Kissing the Cowboy left me entirely enamored! I’m so enthusiast about the next novel in the series. Kenzie and Grayson’s enemies to lovers romance will assuredly be a high entertainment.
