Nice surprise
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Having just read a poor novel involving horses, I had very low expectations for "The Last True Cowboy" (cheesy title and all). I was quite surprised. I got hooked from the very first page, and one of the things that impressed me the most was the language -- this book is extremely well written, and a pleasure to read. I wanted to read it as slowly as possible to savor it, yet couldn't wait to see what was happening next. The story is very well paced, and the women figures are very well developed. They are strong characters, yet flawed -- as human as you can get. Even though you might not agree with their actions, you can see where they're coming from. The family dynamic is very believable, and the romance is not bad either. All in all I thought it was a very "grown up" story. Not your average paperback novel.
The Last True Cowboy by Kathleen Eagle

This was my first Eagle book and surely will not be my last. Powerful women and strong women with a sense of family and roots. Wonderful dialogue between the characters and the descriptive passages of the land and horses is excellent. And the chemistry between KD and Julie does not sizzle like most novels but smolders and doesn't go out. They don't play games which I usually like. This is not your typical romance. It is full of revelations about survival and has a sense of humor and is intelligently written and sooooooooo good. And I am babbling. The sex is enduring as well as hot and KD can put his boots under my bed anytime.
Pure, relaxing reading pleasure!

This book is so crisp you can feel the air at the ranch it centers around. It's not just a typical love story. It challenges you to think about possibilities beyond the norm. I learned things about horses I never even thought about and came away with a better appreciation of the true wildness still available out there somewhere. Kathleen Eagle is a master at making you flip the pages!
A wonderful heart-warming story of love and family devotion

I loved The Last True Cowboy, it was a touching story of family devotion and love and a committment to saving something that is so much a part of our history. The true working ranch that a family desperately wants to save, Julia and KC are meant to be together and their dreams were so much the same. What a gentle man KC was and he would do anything to help someone out and to finally have something he called his own. Julia was afraid to put all of her faith in KC but with the love of her Grandma, memories of Ross's dreams, a city life she was not sure she wanted and a renewed relationship with a sister , how could she lose? Kathleen certainly touched my heart as I have always loved horses and I always love a happy ending. I hated to see this book end because the characters were so real. A true winner and I hope everyone takes the time to sit down and read this one. Keep up the great work, Kathleen.!!!!!!
Do not call this delightful story "just a romance".

To pigeonhole the trials of Julia Weslin and the relationship that grows between her and K. C. Houston as a typical romance novel certainly doesn't due this book justice. Satisfying at just about every level, I couldn't put it down. Ms. Eagle did an especially good job of pacing the relationship between the two main characters with the same patience K. C. used on his horses. The result was a more realistic book in many ways than "The Horse Whisperer". If you loved Tom Booker, you'll enjoy the way Ms. Eagle gave her hero the same gift with horses, but used her creativity to make K. C. Houston equally interesting yet fascinatingly unique in his own way. The plot, the minor characters, and of course, the horses give this tale equal parts of color, depth and humor with enough emotional twists to keep just about any reader happy. I've enjoyed all Ms. Eagle's books, but without a doubt, this is my favorite.
