4 Stars!

I have been so honored to receive ARCs for the Southern Boy Series since Book 1, Forgiving Reed, which is when I fell in love with C.A. Harms' writing. I am really enjoying reading these books and loving each individual story. I was looking forward to reading Colt and Alex's journey after I got a glimpse of the first chapter at the end of Finding Gavin. I knew just by reading that little teaser that this story was going to have some suspense to it in addition to falling in love with a cowboy! Once again, C.A Harms did not disappoint.

We got to meet Colt in Book 2, as Maria's brother. Colt comes back into Maria's life after the loss of their dad. Colt has not been around for awhile so he decided to stay closer to Maria and his mom instead of moving back to where he was living. It was hard not to fall in love with Colt. Everything he did in this story was out of pure love. I have to say that Alex was one lucky girl when she came across Colt.

Alex is a single mom who thought she was going to have her happily ever after. Only that happily ever after turned into a nightmare that she didn't see coming. Alex took her daughter, Maddison, and left the abusive relationship she was in, hoping that she could protect them both. It just so happens, that Alex some how keeps running into Colt; starting with one night at the diner when he buys her dinner without her knowledge. Alex soon finds herself in yet another situation and realizes that the nice family that is helping her out...is Colt's family.

Colt and Alex's relationship starts out as friends. Colt wants more, but knows that Alex has been through so much lately and doesn't want to push her too soon. As time goes on, Alex's guard comes down and she lets Colt in. The moment that Colt met Maddison they instantly had a connection. As Colt and Alex's relationship grew stronger, the relationship between Colt and Maddison did too. Although, I think it may have been possible that Maddison fell in love with Colt before Alex did! Their relationship was so cute. I loved Maddison. She was the sweetest little girl! I think I have said it before, but I will say it again...I don't know what it is about men and kids (that are not theirs) that make me fall in love with their character even more!

I really enjoyed this story. It not only was a love story but it was also suspenseful when it came to Alex's past. The title of this book is Loving Colt; I believe that is the best title to describe Colt. He loves with all he has. He did anything and everything for Alex and Maddison with no hesitation from the moment he met them. Another thing that I've enjoyed about this series is that at the end of the each story, it goes back to the P.O.V's of the characters from the previous books. It shows their thoughts of where their at and what their thinking at that moment. I love knowing that all the characters are still madly in love with each other! It also lets us as a reader reconnect with the characters that we have already fallen in love with. I will continue to recommend not just this book, but the entire series to anyone that loves cowboys with a heart of gold!
