Casanova Cowboy by Jamie Schulz

What's It About?

She’s used to the glitzy, big-city life. He hides behind country-boy charm. Will these total opposites spark unquenchable flames of attraction?

“How did a man-shy woman go about asking a cowboy for a kiss?”

That’s a question you’ll be dying to have answered in Jamie Schulz’s new novel, Casanova Cowboy. When a strong-willed woman from a big city starts over in a small town, leaving behind a difficult past, she is faced with a handsome and rugged rancher with his own secrets. Hart of Dixie meets Safe Haven in the stand-alone second installment of the Montana Men series. This suspenseful romance novel full of heart and healing has the heat turned all the way up to scorching.

Small-Town Rancher Meets Big-City Marketer

Zackary MacEntier is a total bachelor and a ladies’ man, nicknamed the town’s Casanova because of how many ex-girlfriends he has. But lately, he’s been second-guessing his plan to play the field, wondering if it is finally time to become a one-woman man. 

Izabel Silva is trying to leave her past behind, and isn’t sure she’s ready to start a relationship after the last one fell apart, losing her both an engagement and a career. When Zack and Izabel make eye contact across the crowd at a wedding reception, the entire world freezes around them, and temperatures start to rise. The attraction is instant. To make matters worse — or should I say, better — Izabel and Zack are forced into close proximity when Zack’s mother invites Izabel to stay at their house for the week. 

Faced with Zack as her charming new tour guide around town, Izabel is torn between being cautious and accepting her feelings for the attractive cowboy. “He was too much — too masculine, too powerful, too ruggedly beautiful — and not anything she wanted. Right…?” But as Zack teaches her how to ride horses, shows her what life in Montana is like, and opens her world with the knowledge that he is a gentle and kind man, her trust begins to grow. 

The weight of her difficult past and a controlling relationship proves to be more of an obstacle than Izzy thought, and she must learn how to overcome her hesitation and fears and give herself over to a great and passionate love that is, above all, safe. And maybe she’ll learn that Zack, too, has his own demons to wrangle that prevent him from giving himself fully to Izzy, for fear of being hurt again. Izzy needs to decide if she’s ready to ride off into the sunset with Zack, and Zack must decide if he has wallowed in his own pain long enough and is ready to let someone get close to him again.

Suspense and Danger Meet Enthralling Romance

Jamie Schulz adeptly captures the charm of a small town, bringing Meriton to life with descriptions of the community, the local shops, and the county fair. But she also doesn’t shy away from the reality of a small Montana town with close-minded residents who may not be welcoming to outsiders, especially a Latina woman.

On the run from a dangerous ex-fiance, Izzy’s status as an outsider and her connection with the biggest playboy in town don’t exactly help her fly under the radar. The gentle and infuriatingly sexy Montana rancher proves to be her biggest protector, especially when Zack’s own past catches up to him and Izzy’s life is put on the line. Casanova Cowboy is a suspenseful, romantic novel about a tortured cowboy with whiskey-colored eyes, a fierce woman determined to overcome her past, and a mission to find the love they both deserve.
