"Boone's Bounty" is the third installment of the "Three Cowboys and a Baby" series by Thompson. Knowledge of the previous two books helps but is not required.

In this particular installment, Boone is driving back home to meet up with his friends and see the baby he thinks is his when he runs into a blizzard. While waiting for the blizzard to pass, he comes to the aid of a woman and a child who appear to be running from something that terrifies them. He goes to their aid, bringing them back with him to the ranch. And he falls in love, despite his avowal to straighten out the situation with baby Elizabeth first.

The characters in this particular installment of "Three Cowboys" are wonderful, if out of the ordinary for this genre. Boone is especially engaging -- a caring, comforting puppydog of a man with a heart as big as the rest of him. Thompson adds a lot of humor and some steamy sensuality to make this particular installment a good, entertaining, heart-warming read.

My only complaint with this book, as with the rest of the series, is that the baby Elizabeth hook, while sweet, is simply not all that believable. But if you can put any disbelief aside and transcend that, this is a wonderful, engaging book with charming characters.

The two books before this were great. I just finished reading this one and I got a preview for her last one in this series. It comes out in September and I can't wait. If you want a few books that will get you saying "ahww" a lot and make you warm and tingly, buy them all!

This story hooks you right from the beginning. The author makes you care about the characters and provides background if you have not read the two previous in the series.

I was disappointed with this book. It wasn't anywhere near as good as the previous story lines. And she's writing another. It had better be better than this one because this was no good.
