WOW!
I Loved this book! Stayed up till 2 a.m. to finish it. Taking into consideration the time constraints with a "Harlequin," I found the characters to be well developed and very likable. This is a story about a "hesitant to love" woman, and a man about to find himself on the opposite side of an attraction that he would normally lead. The way she turns the tables and uses him for a "good time," it's absolutely hilarious to watch him flounder. I laughed quite a bit, and could have used a fan a few times. In fact, there is a scene where they dance... Well, I'm surprised the pages didn't ignite. What I love most about romance is the banter between the couples, and this author delivers! The writing was dynamic. I'm on the hunt for this authors backlist.

Hot and Amusing.
If you're looking for heat and steam, then THE COWBOY WAY is for you . . . and for me. I confess I couldn't put down Harlequin Blaze # 177 because Candace Schuler wrote a gem.

Clay Madison is not used to being 'used'. He is used to calling the bedroom scenes. Why? A): He is a big-time rodeo star and B): he is a man! The man has a woman in every town and in every city - everywhere the rodeo plays! The man likes flash, curves, and no fuss when the party is over. So, why is this man allowing a serious-minded, prissy, skinny lady-rancher to direct his bedroom action?

Miz Jo Beth Jensen has no time for cowboys. Oh, they are fine as employees, and they are good enough to be friends, yeah they are ok, but they are just NOT bed-partners! No way, Jose! So why is she fantasizing about Clay Madison? What is it about this man she can't leave alone - this four-time Pro Rodeo championship bull-riding cowboy man?

Although her heroine is a tough little cookie, the author surrounds Jo Beth in vulnerability and the hero may bend, but under the surface Clay Madison radiates strength. This story is delightful, the banter is first-rate, and the potency is electrifying. Good golly, Schuler writes some juicy scenes. Hey, doesn't this author know paper burns? Yeah, Schuler's THE COWBOY WAY is one entertaining, humorous, and hot read!

Unlikeable Heroine
This story was a big disappointment after the most excellent and fun "Good Time Girl". I found I could not sympathize with the heroine, Jo Beth. She was extremely annoying and unlikeable. After a few chapters, I simply could not force myself to complete the story. I found her distasteful, and as another reviewer pointed out, she was overly concerned with the opinions of others and she came across as self-centered and rude. I like strong-willed heroines, but she was not like that. She was irritating. So, again, the heroine ruined the story for me.
