The Wounded Cowboy Billionaire by Edith Mackenzie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book tore through my heart over and over again. I had to set it down and come back to it because so much happened just in the first few chapters that I was in tears. It’s such a heart wrenching story, but a really good one!! I am glad that I finished it and I honestly can’t wait to read some of the other books this author has written. So to the book…. Colt is a rodeo star billionaire who’s life gets bucked right out of his own saddle. He’s racing around the barrels of trauma thrown his way at every turn, but his money just isn’t enough to fix the problems. What do you do when you have all the money in the world, but the health of others can’t be bought? Colt goes dark. He runs to the rodeo, fast cars, and booze to mask his pain and forget his life. A life in which his sister dies and leaves behind a baby. Evelyn is a life long childhood best friend of Colt’s sister and a traveled artist. She has studied in London and trained in Venice, but when her friend needs her she comes back Texas. She knows that she can help Colt and the baby, but he is so broken that he gives up and runs. He leaves her with the baby with no warning and no discussion. Will she convince him to come back and care for his sister’s baby? Will he drown in his own despair and just throw his money at the problems he doesn’t want to deal with? Will these two come to an understanding for the baby’s sake? This book will have you in tears! These two characters have a lot of issues to work through and money can’t help a single one! So what does a rodeo billionaire do when money can’t buy happiness? Read the book to find out!!
