Product Description
Stranded and half-frozen in a South Dakota snowstorm, bull rider Zach Beaudry reached out for help at the nearest house he could find. And the beautiful rancher-schoolteacher who answered the door was a vision. Zach thanked his lucky stars for the kindness of strangers. But to Ann Drexler, this man was no stranger.
Zach didn't seem to remember their shared night of passion all those years ago--but how could Ann forget? Seeing Zach on her doorstep was as shocking as seeing the ghost of Christmas past. And though running her family's wild mustang ranch gave Ann a thing for strays, she tried to keep her distance. Yet as Zach regained his strength and became indispensable with the horses, Ann had to wonder--was a second chance with this cowboy in her Christmas future?

| Customer Reviews: Like it despite its faults May 7, 2010 Rocky (California) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am a fan of Kathleen Eagle. I have read all of her romance novels and some of her mainstream work. Her mainstream work is well crafted but too dark for my taste.
The trite plot of "One Cowboy, One Christmas" is unusual for Kathleen Eagle (a banged up, promiscuous, once famous professional rodeo bull rider finds his true love and turns around his declining, depressing life).
Despite the plot, I highly recommend this book. Ms. Eagle's writing is outstanding. I have always considered her one of the best Romance genre writers. Her venture into mainstream fiction seems to have added grace, originality, and power to her writing style. It is a pleasure to read. The dialogue is hard hitting and feels authentic. The descriptions are excellent. Word choice is outstanding and original. I randomly selected a couple of examples of Kathleen Eagles writing. If you like them, you will love this book. The first example is a description of miscarriage: "What was it like? Like a dream died inside me. ... The thing is, I had a little face in mind, little hands and feet." The second example is about waking up and finding a bed partner absent on a cold day when the heat is not working: "She flipped the covers off, swung her legs over the side of the bed, sat up and thought about the possibilities. But only for a couple of seconds. She was stark naked, and it was seriously cold. Anyway, she wasn't feeling it. The cold, yes. Zach's absence, no."
I hope Ms. Eagle will combine her excellent writing with one of her thought-provoking, highly original romance plots in the future.
One Cowboy, One Christmas March 12, 2010 Happy Shopping I expected more length and intensity from a Kathleen Eagle book. O.K. fast read for a light weight romance.
An entertaining read. December 23, 2009 Ana Thierry (Ohio) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
There was a time in the not-so-distant past that Kathleen Eagle was a must-buy for me. When she moved into hardback her work became more mainstream and it lost its appeal because the romance placed a distant third in those book.
In this book, Eagle is back in the format that I feel showcases her considerable talent the best. She's known for crafting the every Jane and Joe. Her characters are the people next door with real issues and shortcomings just like everyone else. While I don't feel his is her best work, One Cowboy, One Christmas is an entertaining holiday-themed read.
In agreement... November 29, 2009 C. Otero (Albuquerque, New Mexico United States) I have to agree with the previous two reviewers...An excellent Western romance by an excellent romance writer. I am looking forward to the next installment of this series.
worth your money November 28, 2009 Sally Stone If you love western romance books, you'll probably love this book. I don't think Kathleen Eagle has wrote a bad book. Her books are short but good. I think you'll like it.
