Wowowow-

It took me time to warm up to book 1, but I was immediately immersed in the story with this one. It felt a little more intense than book 1 too, mostly because the characters had been through a lot in life. Jack was seeing a therapist for his PTSD, and he was still unable to forget his ex-fiancee Madison's betrayal (she slept with his brother, got pregnant, and married him instead--what a total *headass*), while Rose was abused by her father growing up until she finally managed to put him in jail. They struck a deal when Jack's family announced they were coming to visit--cheating ex-fiancee-now-sister-in-law and no-good brother included, and Rose got the news that her father was out on parole Rose would pretend to be Jack's loving girlfriend to prove that he's moved on from Madison, Jack would spend his nights at Rose's bar as a bouncer, looking out for her father.

Jack and Rose had a lot of chemistry together, and honestly? the fake relationship was fake for like 2 seconds because they genuinely cared about each other. Jack was the braver one; he reconciled with his feelings about Rose early on. Rose, on the other hand, dealt with self-worth issues stemmed from her abuse; she didn't believe she was deserving of Jack, and did her best to push him away but he wasn't having it. I love the way they resolved that conflict (taking a chance on a *real* relationship).

One q I just wanna know why they aren't more Titanic references?????? We only got one LOL.

Anyway, I'm ready for Gabe's book now!

[I received a galley in exchange for an honest review]
In the past year, I've become quite a fan of Nicole Helm, but in Cowboy SEAL Redemption, the second book in her Navy SEAL Cowboys series, she totally outdid herself, and if I could give this novel more than 5 stars I would because it was an astonishingly good read, one that had me heading for the Kleenex on more than one occasion.

If you've not read the first novel in the series, I'd suggest you start there, but if you haven't, this novel works just fine as a standalone too. The main characters are Jack Armstrong, brave, stoic, all-around good guy, Navy SEAL and wounded warrior all wrapped in one handsome but scarred package. He's at Revival Ranch, trying to both recover from the damage done to his leg by an exploding grenade, which is what ended his military career. As if that and his PTSD weren't enough for him to deal with, he's also dealing with the fact that while he was deployed, his fiance, the girl next door, who he always knew would someday be his wife and the mother of his children, slept with Jack's brother, got pregnant and the two got married, totally destroying the life that Jack had always expected would be his. He's broken, he's lost, and he doesn't know how to move forward after losing everything he thought he had. As if that wasn't enough angst to deal with, he's just learned that his entire family, his parents, his younger sister, and the two people he loved who betrayed him will all soon be arriving via RV for a 2-week visit at the ranch, and the last thing Jack wants them to see is how lost and broken he really is, so he comes up with a plan.

Enter Rose. She owns the local bar in this small Montana town, the place where Jack and his friends at Revival Ranch hang out in the evening. She's one tough cookie, and she doesn't trust men, in fact, she's armed at all times. She, along with her sisters, are the product of a life of horrendous physical and emotional abuse at the hands of thier drunken father and their equally abused and abusive mother. Several years earlier, Rose finally managed to get her father locked up in prison, but she just got word that he's been released, and she's certain that he'll be coming after her for revenge and retribution.

One night, Jack comes to Rose asking for a favor--he wants her to pose as his girlfriend while his family is visiting the ranch. The last thing he wants is for his family to know how hurt, betrayed, and lost he is, or allow them to see that he's not been able to move forward with his life. When he asks her for that favor, Rose sees the solution to her problem too, so the favor becomes a trade-off. She'll post as Jack's girlfriend and try to fool his family into believing it, but, fearing her father showing up unannounced and angry, the favor she asks of Jack is simply that he act as her bouncer on the weekends and keep an eye out for the man whose photo she shows Jack, but she doesn't tell him that the man in the photo is her father. She also doesn't tell anyone about the abuse she suffered or the guilt she feels because she was her father's favorite, the one he and her mother thought was just like him, and she heard it often enough that she believes it.

Before the arrival of the Armstrong family, these two broken souls will have to get to know each in order to pull off the planned deception, and, because this is a romance novel after all, Jack becomes attracted to prickly, tough, snarky Rose, and that scares her senseless. She sees in Jack all the things she doesn't believe herself to be worthy of, like kindness, romance, decency, consideration, honesty, and love. While waffling between wanting him and fearing that connection is something that usually irritates me in a novel, in this particular novel, I totally understood how Rose felt. And it came as no surprise that, at least from Jack's perspective, he was finally attracted to someone other than the one woman he'd ever been with, the one who'd betrayed him, the one he's terrified of seeing again. But Rose saw the attraction between herself and Jack as a temporary anomaly, and saw their deal as no more than a passing fling, and she couldn't have been more wrong.

So, there it is, the bare bones of a complex story of two broken and wounded souls, both betrayed by those the loved, who somehow manage, by a set of circumstances beyond their control, to help heal each other. But summing up this novel in a just a few sentences, or a few paragraphs, simply doesn't do it justice, because this novel is about so much more than just that. At it's heart, it's about the view we each have of ourselves, how harshly we judge ourselves, how our past affects who we are in the present, and how the face we wear on the outside doesn't really express or reflect who we are or what we feel about ourselves on the inside. It's also about the lies we tell ourselves, the facades we hide behind, and the things we'd rather not remember, but which we cannot forget. It's about looking at ourselves honestly, owning the choices we make, and taking responsibility for those choices. In this novel, when the catharsis finally occurs, all I can recommend is that you grab your tissues and sob quietly so as not to disturb others, as I did at 3 o'clock this morning, because, quite frankly, this novel got to me, and it got to me in a major way, and I think it will get to you too.

Kudos to Nicole Helm for her brilliant storytelling, her excellent writing skills, these wonderful, well-drawn characters and for a story so well conceived that it and they will stay with me for years to come. Cowboy SEAL Redemption is one excellent, deeply moving read, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this novel. The opinions expressed are my own.
Very good second book of the series. Liked the ranch setting and the partnership of three ex-seals with the heroine as a bar owner
Oh man, I totally didn’t realize this series was in the same world as one of my all time favorites until the llamas and rose’s family history came up. Not if she could continue with the rest of the Roger sisters that would be awesome!
Jack and Rose are totally different but their relationship works. Jack is an ex Navy SEAL dealing with so many issues. Rose is,the local lady that runs the bar in this Montana town. It is wonderful to read a story that involves family and all that goes with family. A very heartwarming novel that does have a HEA.
