Meet New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan’s McGraths: a family as untamed as the land they call home.

Skye Kennedy has always loved the close-knit community of Sunrise Fellowship—but when she witnesses the commune’s new leader commit a terrible crime, she flees…and finds herself in Montana, on the McGrath ranch, and drawn to the stoic yet kind man determined to help her.

Declan McGrath has always handled things himself and focused more on work than his love life. With his newlywed brothers distracted by their beautiful wives, Declan has even more work on his hands. But when Skye arrives at the ranch starving and desperate for work, his loner days are over.

​Skye wants to keep her distance and protect Declan from the deadly threats facing her, but soon their relationship morphs into something much more than either of them expected. When she fights back against those out to destroy Sunrise Fellowship, Skye and Declan will have to do everything to protect not just Skye's community, but also their new love...

From a hippy commune, cowboys, sex-trafficking, and murder, Love of a Cowboy by Jennifer Ryan has it all! So get ready for the ride of your life. 

Skye Kennedy loved her community of Sunrise Fellowship, and even when things start to turn bad, Skye is determined to protect everyone, but after witnessing a murder, Sky knows that her life is in danger and runs. 

Declan McGrath was expecting many things when he got up that morning, but finding a half-starved woman begging to eat damaged apples she found on the floor in exchange for work shocked him, but when she passed out, it angered him that she had gone hungry. Spurred into action, Declan hired her, gave her a room, and collected her care, just to make sure that she was safe. 

WOW! Just wow! Jennifer Ryan hit it out of the park again with this book, I was so swept up with the story I didn’t even realize it was 2 am when I finished, or care that I started reading the book from the beginning the very next day. And a week later, I’m still blissfully living happily in my book-hangover world. 

I really loved seeing this softer side of Declan’s character, he seemed much more approachable in this book than in the first McGrath book. Skye is the ultimate people pleaser, but not just with one or two people, but with the hundreds at the fellowship, but she is sweet and soft and strong and resilient and you can’t help but cheer her on!
