If you add two strangers to a cabin in the middle of a snowstorm, the obvious is bound to happen . . .

When Essex lifestyle blogger and fashionista, Gracie Elliott crash lands into the life of Colorado mountain man Koa Carmichael in the middle of a snow storm, fists, chemistry and sexual banter ensue.

After the punk rock Tinker Bell and semi-retired country rock star share some sweet, emotional as well as laugh-out-loud moments, they find it impossible to deny that they might have discovered exactly what neither of them knew they were looking for.

THIS BOOK WAS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED UNDER THE TITLE CowSex.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Lesley Jones was born and raised in Essex, England but moved to Australia in 2006 with her family. Her first book, Saviour, was published in 2013 and she quickly gained a reputation as a writer of gritty, down to earth characters, involved in angsty and emotional plot lines. Carnage, her third novel, made a number of lists, and won a number of awards for ‘Best Ugly Cry’. Her readers love the fact that she can switch her stories from hot and steamy, to snot bubble ugly crying, followed by laugh out loud moments, in the space of a few sentences. She has declared that the very best part of her job is meeting her readers and has travelled the world a number of times over the past few years to do exactly that. Lesley is a big fan of wearing pyjamas at any time of day, but not a fan of wearing a bra, unless absolutely necessary.

When not writing, she has admitted to being a prolific reader, getting through around four or five books a week. She is a fan of trashy reality TV, listening to music, watching her son play football, spicy food and enjoys a glass of wine… or three.

Trust me…the title makes sense…eventually.

I’m sitting back reading CowSex and hubby walks in.

Me: Hubby, how am I going to talk people into reading this book when it’s called CowSex?
Hubby: Is it about his good mooooves?
Me: Ha bloody Ha…
Hubby: Is it uderly sexy?
Me: Oh Geez, STOP. I haven’t even worked out why it’s called CowSex yet?
Hubby: Maybe, he’s all animal in bed?
Me: STOP…PLEASE…STOP!!

Well, I’ve finished and now I know that there is a VERY good reason why this book is called CowSex, and it CRACKED ME UP!! I don’t know about you but I had some very…ummm…weird…ahhh…kinky…thoughts running through my head trying to work out the reason for the title. TRUST ME, YOU’LL LOVE IT!! Have no fear, I would not lead you up the garden path, the title is fine, legit and OK. No animals were hurt or “used” in the making of this story. 😉

So, we’ve established that the title is more than you think, now it’s time to get to the nitty-gritty. I nearly gave up at 50%. My eye was twitching, and the reviewer in me was STRUGGLING. Do I put ALL my romance reading rules on the shelf and push through? Well, fellow members of the jury, I can say that no rules (well, my rules) were broken and I finished this story with the BIGGEST…GOOFIEST…CHEESIEST…grin on my face.

THIS BOOK WAS BLOODY AWESOME!!

Ok, it was nearly perfect. I did have a couple of times that I shaked and shuddered, moaned and groaned and squinted my eyes a little. I’m not sure the author knows this, but this book had a remarkable resemblance (definitely not the same) to The Gamble by the LEGEND Kristen Ashley. Now, before you all get judgy, it’s definitely different. For starters, this chick is definitely no Nina and the bloke is definitely not Max. It just had tones of The Gamble, that automatically made me think of it.

I laughed, Oh how I laughed in this book. Another conversation with hubby…

Me: You know how I was cracking up before, do you want to hear why?
Hubby: Your idea of funny and mine when it comes to your books are worlds apart.
Me: No, this time it’s REALLY funny.
Hubby: Sure…
Me: So…. (I’m not going to tell you, you have to read it)
Hubby: (at the end of telling him) Silly (with a big grin on his face)
Me: Silly, but funny too?
Hubby: Yeah, yeah…

Now, there were a couple of times that had me crossing my arms and shaking my head at the hero. I was doing the whole…YOU WANT ME TO LOVE THIS DOUCHEWAFFLE? Well, I can confirm, that if you stick with it, this story will give you a HERO!! You know, those guys we read romance for. He says the right thing, does the right thing and acts the right way. I LOVED FRANGGY…I mean Koa. It was not hard at all to be picturing Franggy as the hero…not hard at all.

What a journey. I absolutely loved the highs and lows. This was my first story by Lesley Jones and it will definitely not be my last. I laughed, cried, squirmed and sighed. Exactly what I’m looking for in my romance reads. Accept the title…and enjoy the ride.

I am not usually one to read romcom but, with a name like that IDK how I was gonna pass it up. CowSex, definitely not what you are thinking and I absolutely love the name !! Too cute <3 This author knows how to write. Me not reading Romcom was intrigued and couldn't put the story down. I love the way she writes her characters. They are lovable and hard to walk away from. You just wanna know more about them and stay wrapped up in the story. Her heroine is sassy and puts up with no crap. She's like this lil tornado that has blown into Aspen and is turning Koa's (<---hero) life upside down. With 2 failed marriages under his belt and 2 ex psychos to prove it, Koa isn't lookin for anything or anyone. Until he meets Gracie and they are both exactly what each other needs. They just don't know it yet.
The banter between the main Characters is great. Had me laughing from the start. the inner dialogue of the 2 was just as funny. There is one point I am laughing so hard I had tears. This was well worth the risk and CowSex has me thinking I should be giving Romcom a little bit more of a chance. :)

So, I have this new book boyfriend I’d like to introduce you to…he’s name is Koa and he is one sexy-ass cowboy. I also have a massive girl crush on an Essex chick named Gracie. I adore these two characters; separately they are great but put them together and they are just amazing. Their chemistry is off the charts but it’s more than chemistry that hooked me with these two; they have a connection and a bond that is so intense. The banter is freaking hilarious and I couldn’t get enough of it.

I was hooked on this book from page one. I did not want to put it down and ended up reading it rather quickly, which disappointed me because I soon found myself at the end. NOOOO, I screamed and had to re-read it. I must warn you, don’t try reading this at your office desk… trust me, just don’t. You will laugh your @$$ off, you will have tears from laughter and people will look at you as if you’re crazy.

It’s no lie that Lesley Jones is one of my favorite all time authors and I’m always giddy with excitement when she announces she has a new book coming out. I couldn’t wait to get my grabby hands on this and let me tell you, it was worth the wait. CowSex is a rom-com that will leave you swooning, laughing, crying and cheering for the characters. I know what you’re thinking… CowSex?... it’s not what you are thinking at all. You need this book on your TBR list, hell, you need to just stop and read it right now.

Refreshingly brilliant.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 29, 2017

First book I've read by Lesley Jones, I'm now looking for her next to start. I absolutely loved this story. Gracie is one of the best female leads I've read, if not the best. Being English myself, I loved the expressions Gracie used (typically English ones) and the confusion from koa at what they meant. Made me laugh out loud, continuously. The story itself, girl breaks up with longterm boyfriend, goes off to Colorado to 'find herself'. There's a mixup with her house rental and it turns out there's the owner actually living there. However, owner is seriously hot! Etc... Sound boring but it is so not. Lesley's writing put a whole new slant on a simple romance. It funny, moving, emotional. I didn't want it to end. The side character s are so good and add so much to the story that I hope, fingers crossed, that domes of them get their own story. If you want a brilliantly written refreshing romance with a great female lead, give this a go. One last thing, wish Koa was real, Wow!!

What a fabulous book. I'm not a massive fan of comedy romance but hey this is Lesley Jones we are talking about and I AM a massive fan of her writing, so no hesitation here to read this book.
The slang and Essex glossary in this book just blows you away. So funny and witty we have Gracie who decides to go to Colorado for a six month break away from all her problems in the UK; to have some space to clear her head. Typical Essex girl, full of wit and not afraid to speak her mind, I fell in love with Gracie's character as soon as I started to read the book.
She meets Koa in the most bizarre of situations and even though they don't get off to the best start, the chemistry and attraction is evident from the off.
Koa - OK he is mine, I claimed him and I'm totally in love with this man. Handsome, tattooed, and bearded ( just take a look at that cover - Franggy is PERFECT for this character) the push and pull between these two characters is written to perfection. Laughs a minute, hilarious situations that they find themselves in, Gracie certainly knows her mind, a real little spitfire that keep Koa on his toes which I truly enjoyed. Of course it's not all fun and frolics, they both have pasts to deal with and issue that need addressing and that's where the little bit of angst comes in to add to the humour.
Told in duel POV I love that we get inside both of their heads to see how they feel and how they deal with the situations that they find themselves in, with secondary characters popping in and out Lesley has done herself proud. I LOVED the book and I can't recommend it enough.
A feelgood romance with lots of laughs, a sprinkle of hot sex and great characters to entertain us - excellent !!!!!!

Absolutely perfect

I can not begin to explain how much I loved this book - it was exactly my cup of green tea. Lesley Jones broke my heart with Carnage but has undoubtedly mended it with CowSex. This book was sexy, sweet and just downright funny. Gracie was strong, ballsy and had a filthy mouth that had me laughing and smiling all the way through. As for Koa he was the epitome of a luscious book boyfriend. His own mouth was sexilly dirty and while he had issues Lesley didn't make him so broken you wanted to reach inside the book and smack him around his head. The banter between Gracie and Koa was sexy and funny, the supporting characters added depth to the story and the cameo appearances from Kod were hilarious. I hope there is a follow up either from Gracie and Koa or Kod making a visit. You should definitely read this book even if you're not looking for a break from dark reads - it will bring you a few hours of joy.

What another fab read by Lesley Jones!
This author never fails to hit the spot when it comes to writing books... absolutely love when her good old Essexness come done into a book... it's writing gold!
These 2 characters couldn't be further than different to each other but that's why they work so well together.
Cowboy Koa gets more than he bargained for when he gets an unexpected house guest in the shape of Essex born Gracie land at his door... both wanting completely different things from life at that time it's a game of friendship to start but what follows is hilarity while they are getting to know each other!
Great strong characters including the kick ass heroine.. and a fab story.. whats not to like about this?

UTTERLY BRILLIANT, HILARIOUSLY FUNNY,OUTSTANDINGLY GOOD, WONDERFUL MASTERPIECE.
What a fabulous book. I'm relative newcomer to the comedy romance was a genre I didn't read a lot of but slowly changing my opinion with crackers like this. This is the first book I have read from Lesley Jones and I AM NOW a massive fan of her writing, so no hesitation here to any of her books from now on.
The slang and Essex glossary in this book just blows you away. As I am English my self I understood everything she said but it was hilarious them trying to understand the very funny and witty Gracie, who had decided to go to Colorado for a six month break away from all her problems in the UK; to have some space to clear her head.
Typical Essex girl, full of wit and not afraid to speak her mind, I am in love with Gracie's character as soon as I started to read the book. Sometimes the way a female is written these days she is either a horrid character or a tart, Gracie was in a word divine.
The way she meet Koa is just out iof this world bizarre of situations and even though they don't get off to the best start, the chemistry and attraction is evident from the off.
Koa - OK PERFECT BOOK BOYFRIEND , I have claimed him and he is now mine, I'm totally in love with this man. Handsome, tattooed, and bearded sublime, the push and pull between these two characters is written to perfection. Laughs a minute, hilarious situations that they find themselves in, I love the fact that Gracie knows her mind, a real little spitfire that kept Koa on his toes which I truly enjoyed. Of course it's not all fun and frolics, they both have pasts to deal with and issue that need addressing and that's where the little bit of angst comes in to add to the humour.
Told in duel POV I love that, infact it has become a core incredient for me now, I want to hear the man's point of view, It lets us get inside both of their heads to see how they feel and how they deal with the situations that they find themselves in, with secondary characters popping in. I LOVED the book and I can't recommend it enough.
A feelgood romance with lots of laughs, a sprinkle of hot sex and great characters to entertain us - excellent !!!!!! CowSex
