Summary: Wow : )~
Review: "The Cowboy" (book three of three, after "The Pirate" and "The Adventurer") is the best of this five-star trilogy. If you're planning to buy one, you might as well buy all three and read them in order. As is the case with the other 2 books in this short story series, the hero in "The Cowboy" can be exasperatingly alpha at times, but he makes amends well enough to the heroine and some how Krentz - as usual - pulls it off wonderfully. I wanted this last story to go on and on well after the 246 pages were done!

Summary: Bold and Daring
Review: A nice book in all but not something that really stands out. The humor is lovely and the passion sizzling. Quite simply it's just another JAK book. It's what she is known for and it's what got her famous. Buy it or go to the library!

Summary: Hero is not a cowboy!
Review: As a Texas native who now lives in Oklahoma, I have seen my share of cowboys. I know this may seem picky, but I couldn't get past the fact that Rafe was constantly described as wearing boots with flower or star patterns. Note to Ms. Krentz: No self respecting cowboy would allow himself to wear such prissy clothing! Other than this obvious faux pas, the story seemed pretty much like the standard Krentz romance. Arrogant man bent on revenge meets feisty heroine who convinces him revenge is not the answer. I sometimes think Ms. Krentz's characters are interchangeable. On the plus side, this is a light, breezy romance perfect for an easy read. If you aren't expecting an original plot and you can stomach a cowboy with purple flowers on his boots, then this is the book for you.

Summary: Pass me the saucepan - arrogant hero alert!
Review: I don't like alpha males, donkey kings, or whatever you call very very very stubborn and arrogant heroes. Some authors write them well, others don't. I guess in 1990 Ms Krentz is still polishing up her act because the guy in this book is very very annoying. Worse, the heroine is one of those women who insists she will do as she please while following the hero's orders. Irritating. After a while all I wanted to do is to close the book and imagine forcing those two to watch Barney until they plead mercy. Of all three of the Legends and Ladies trilogy, the best (to me) is the Pirate, even that one is only a three-star book. At such a steep price, I'd recommend saving for "Flash". At least that one is new.

Summary: !
Review: I love stories of men who won't give up on the women they love. And this book was it! I loved it when Rafe put Maggie in a situation where she couldn't get out of and that, of course, put Rafe in close contact with Maggie!

Summary: Wonderful!
Review: I loved this entire series. Each one was different yet fit together so perfectly. "The Pirate" was fun and adventurous; "The Adventurer" was pure toe-curling romance; and "The Cowboy" was a tightly woven story with a REAL relationship issue. What a wonderful conclusion to the series.

Summary: I threw the book away without even finishing it
Review: I was so disappointed with this book that I threw it away after only reading the first 75 pages. I count on JAK to write books with strong female characters and boy was I ever disappointed. Margaret had absolutely no back bone. I hope this is not a glimpse of things to come.
