REVIEW - A Cowboy Christmas Miracle (Burnt Boot, Texas #4) by Carolyn Brown

The Book
Release Date: 6 September 2016
Goodreads Link

It will take a miracle bigger than the state of Texas for these two feuding families to survive the holidays!

Opposites might attract...
The Brennans and the Gallaghers put aside their one-hundred-year feud every Tuesday for their weekly poker game. This week, the stakes are sky-high. Goaded to recklessness, Declan Brennan bets one thousand dollars that he can woo the next woman to walk into the saloon. A minute later, fiery-haired Betsy Gallagher pushes through the doors. If Declan can tame this wild Gallagher, he'll have earned every penny.

If they don't kill each other first...
Betsy can outshoot anybody in Burnt Boot and loves ranching more than anything-until she falls for Declan. He's fallen for her too. But when she discovers what sparked their courtship, Declan will need a Christmas miracle to save his hide-and his heart.

My Review  5 STARS
**Copy Provided by Netgalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for an honest review**

This is the last book in the series and can be read as a stand alone very easily, but you get a better idea of the family feud after having read the first three books in the series.

Declan's sister was in book three and has thrown Declan a bone in wanting to get out from under the feud.  When he loses at a poker game and has to make the next woman who walks int the bar fall in love with him, he is really pleased to see the see the woman who he has had a crush for year on walk in, it does not matter that she is from the rival family.

Betsy like a lot of her other family is fed up with the feud too and wants to go it alone, she too has had a crush on a member of the other feuding family.  When she sees Declan under the willow tree she explains how she wants a christmas programme and Declan offers to help her.

IT is with having helping each other that their feeling for each other grow, but they are concerned at how their families will react.  It's a modern day Romeo and Juliet.

Both have family members that support their choice, it is only the grandma's that are not happy and have been making the feud worse each year.

I have really loved this series and will certainly miss burnt boot.
