From this "fabulous storyteller" (Carolyn Brown, New York Times bestselling author) comes the next Meadow Valley western romance series.
Dr. Charlotte North has no time for a player, not even one as tempting as Ben Callahan. Besides, Charlotte is only in Meadow Valley for a few months to help her grandmother. After that, it's back to New York and the career she loves. But when her gran starts to meddle in her personal life, Charlotte knows just the man to help her out. Ben's the perfect no-strings boyfriend, until Charlotte discovers that beneath that rugged, charming exterior lies a sweet and bighearted cowboy.

Ben Callahan is tired of people assuming he's an immature playboy, so when the smart and sexy Charlotte asks him to be her pretend boyfriend, he jumps at the chance to show everyone that he's changed his ways. Though he and Charlotte are calling their relationship fake, Ben's heart says otherwise. Two months with Charlotte isn't nearly enough. Will Ben be able to prove he's worthy of her for real before their time together is up, or will she leave Meadow Valley -- and him -- forever?

Includes the bonus novel Hometown Cowboy by Sara Richardson!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Cowboy Read!!

This is the 2nd book in AJ Pine's Meadow Valley series written about the Callahan men. The 2nd book did not disappoint and was a very quick read, sadly. I say that because in every one of AJ Pine's books, she has such a knack for making the subjects so endearing and down to earth and the story lines written in such a way that you can't help fall in love with them. So when it's over, she leaves you wanting more and hanging on for the next book to come out.

Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2020
When Charlotte North gets the call from her cousin that her grandmother has taken a fall and needs some help with her healing for the next couple of months, she immediately takes time off from work and packs her bags for Meadow Valley. She knows it's where she needs to be right now, but there is a small part of her that is nervous about seeing Ben Callahan again. After a recent stay in Meadow Valley her and Ben had a little fling and it was so convenient to not think too much on it after because she was able to escape to the city, but seeing him again means all those feelings are bound to return.

The moment she sees him again a rush of feelings and desire hit her all over again, but she doesn't want to be just another woman to lose her heart to the unattainable cowboy. So she decides it best to avoid him at all costs. Then her meddling grandmother starts to get into the mix and decides to try and play matchmaker, and suddenly they are thrown together into a fake relationship. Only there isn't much fake to it...one little kiss and things take a heated little turn!

Make Mine A Cowboy is a touching tale about second chances, finding love, and finding home. These two weren't so sure they were ready for anything of the serious sort, but their hearts and a meddling grandmother had other plans for them. Charlotte enjoyed her week with the sexy cowboy, but she knew that is all it would be, a week of fun. But when she returned to town that sexy cowboy had her charmed in a matter of minutes all over again. I loved watching these two get their second chance at life and love, their union brought many smiles, swoons, laughs, and left my heart all sorts of happy. If you like small town western romances that squeeze the heart then I have no doubt this one will leave you delighted on all fronts, it's brimming with everything necessary to have your heart-strings feeling a nice little tug! Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful addition to the series.
Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2020
I have enjoyed the previous books in this series, a novella, Cowboy to the Rescue and the first book, My One and Only Cowboy. The previous book had a very sweet love story with a bit of an emotional edge. That is continued in this book, Make Mine a Cowboy. Ben Callahan is about to get some very important news, news that will affect not only the rest of his life, but the life choices he makes. Just as he is coming to terms with this news, he is roped into pretending to be a woman's boyfriend.

This is no easy task, because the woman, Dr. Charlotte North, is someone that affects Ben on a very deep level. But, why is he agreeing to do this? Charlotte is in town because her grandmother has been injured and so Charlotte takes some time away from her duties as a doctor to help her grandmother to heal, as well as to take on duties at the ranch that Ben owns with his brother and their friend. She and Ben have a bit of a history, thus a connection that Charlotte knows will work.

So, the question comes up, why have a pretend boyfriend. Well, Charlotte's loving grandmother wants her busy granddaughter settled and happy, and so while Charlotte is in town, just maybe she can be set up and find the man of her dreams. Charlotte decides to thwart that by asking Ben to pretend to be her boyfriend around their grandmother.

It works. Sort of. They do make a believable couple, but that is more due to the emotional and physical attraction they both share, thus making pretend actually look very real. Meanwhile, that issue that all but floored Ben is never far from his mind. As a matter of fact, he is about to make some serious changes in his life and also hopes to change how others view him.

I really enjoyed this book by A.J. Pine. I loved the characters and the plot, with the extra level of emotional angst. Also, I loved the "impossible" nature of the story when it came to resolving the conflicts that affected Ben and Charlotte. This is an endearing story that concluded with a very warm ending.

Both novels were packed with a variety of emotions. Each character wanted change, but they did not have the confidence to go after it, as there had been a lot of upset in their earlier lives. It was interesting for the reader to be part of each journey, and to witness the fulfillment of their hopes and dreams.
