He's tough. He's a loner. His life is all about ranching. She's a socialite. She's soft. She's the new owner. NOT A FAMILY MAN by Patricia McLinn #cowboy #western #romance #amreading

NOT A FAMILY MAN is a 5-STAR MUST READ!

"I have never read a book by this author that I didn't love and want to read again. This story pits a crusty cowboy against a socialite who has escaped a stifling marriage and wants a better life for her children. The story pleases on all levels. The characters grow, change, explore and finally recognize the rightness of their choices. Highly recommend!" - Amazon 5-Star review

“… Well-fleshed-out characters, true-to-life adventure and sensuous love scenes. This is the kind of book you read more than once just for the nice, warm feeling it leaves with you.” — Rendezvous

“I’ve become a huge Patricia McLinn fan.”

— 5-Star review

With one exception, the rooms Jenny glimpsed as their ragged procession trailed Tucker Gates’ long strides were clear of all extraneous decoration. In fact they were lifeless. Sheets covered large shapes that could be a sofa, a chair, a dining-room table, but in the dim light they resembled huge, wily beasts — or an overcrowded graveyard with blank headstones. The drapes were closed, the walls bare.

With no offer of help with their luggage from either Tucker Gates or Deaver Smith, they’d each grabbed the overnight case Jenny had insisted they carry on-board “in case.”

She’d been thinking along the lines of lost luggage, not a sojourn in the Addams Family mansion.

NOT A FAMILY MAN

Not a Family Man, the story of Wyoming ranch foreman Tucker Gates and the new owner for the Double Bar X, divorcee Jenny Peters, is the prequel to The Forgotten Prince, the upcoming Book 7 in USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinn's acclaimed Wedding Series.

Tucker was skeptical of Jenny's city-bred fairy-tale views of life – and love – in the West. But she wasn’t going to let him scare her away from the new life she wanted to build for herself and her kids. No matter that he could be as hard as the mountains around them. No matter that Jenny found totally unexpected comfort from his rough strength.

But what next? Because Tucker Gates was a lot of things, but he was absolutely clear that he was not a family man.
