The Cowboy's Texas Family (Lone Star Cowboy League Book 4) Kindle Edition
From Cowboy to Father Figure
Rancher Nick McGarrett wants to help orphaned ten-year-old Corey Phillips, the brother of his late comrade. But he’s not fit to be a father—not with his troubled past. Thankfully, the child finds a home at the Lone Star Cowboy League Boys Ranch, where Nick volunteers. When wealthy newcomer Darcy Hill discovers she’s Corey’s cousin, she hopes to eventually take him in. Nick and Darcy couldn’t be more opposite—or more drawn to each other. But for Darcy, raising Corey in her hometown means leaving Texas . . . and Nick. It’ll take a special little boy to show these two grown-ups that the key to forging a new future is being together.

About the author
Margaret has been writing for over 35 years. She started writing in the late 1970s because she wanted to see if she could put a whole story down on paper. That book is still in the drawer and will never see the light of day. But she was able to finish a book, which was her goal.
She decided after that to get some help, and joined a writers' roundtable where she met once a week with some fellow writers who went over each other's work. She sold her first book in the early 1980s and has been selling ever since. She loves to tell a story. When she was a little girl she made up stories while playing with her dolls. On long trips with her family she would weave a story about the surrounding countryside. From those early beginnings grew a love of entertaining people with a story. She has sold nearly 5 million books worldwide with over 90 books.
When she went away to college, she met her husband, Mike, to whom she has been married for over 40 years. He is her support and her best friend. She has always felt she was the luckiest woman the day she bumped into him on campus.
When they married, they moved to Tulsa, where she finished her degree in special education and began teaching. She loved teaching and working with students with special needs. They helped her remember what is important in life. She also participated in the Special Olympics as a coach with her students and has attended the State Games in May for years. Recently she retired from teaching to write full-time.
Besides teaching and writing, she is also a mother of one. Her son, Shaun, loves animals and there have been times they could have their own zoo at the house. The most interesting pet Shaun had is a leopard tortoise, which could outlive him. She has joked that his children will be inheriting a tortoise. He is married with four daughters.
When she isn't working, she loves to read, travel, and go to lunch and a movie with a friend. She has been to many countries in the world and loves to meet new people. Her favorite place is Tahiti -- Bora Bora. It is as beautiful as all the pictures portray it.
In her travels she has found herself in some interesting situations. Once, in London, she got caught in the middle of a protest that later turned into a riot over poll taxes. In the rain forest of Costa Rica, she was covered from head to toe in mud and ruined a perfectly good outfit. She should have remembered it was going to be wet since it was called a rain forest. In Rio, she and a friend were left with no means to get back to the hotel on the other side of the city. Neither Margaret nor her companion spoke Portuguese and there wasn't a cab in sight. Thankfully one finally pulled up to the curb at the museum because she couldn't see herself hiking across Rio to get back to the hotel at night.

Margaret Daley
The Cowboy’s Texas Family is in a series of Long Star Cowboy League:Boys Ranch . Even though it is in a series it can be read as a stand-a-lone with no problems. I love the story and the characters, both were easy to follow. Daley knows how to weave a story and grab you right at the start and not let go till the end. She does not disappointment me. There is lots of strange things that is going on around the Boys Ranch. Corey is having a hard time now, his mom died and his father turned into an alcoholic and cant watch Corey. Nick loves Corey and promised a buddy he would help watch after him. He is doing his best , but he thinks he is not father material to take Corey in. Nick is keeping some of his childhood a secret and has not told anyone. Darcey is in Haven, Texas to finds some answers, she lives in Alabama . She meets Corey and falls in love with him. I caught myself with tears in my eyes and could not read fast enough to see what was going to happen. What will happen to Corey. Nick thinks he is not father material and Darcy lives in Alabama. Darcy and Nick gets close while she is working at the Boys Ranch . Daley weaves a story of hurt, forgiveness, and love. This is a heartwarming story that will touch your heart.
I was given a complimentary book , but was not told that I had to give a positive review. All opinions are my own.
