Obsessive to a “T” about controlling everything and everyone around her, Liza Delane has turned her character flaw into a successful business with the help of her assistant. When one of her major clients hoodwinks her into planning a puppy wedding, she’s sure this will be the end of her great reputation. Blake Dean is the wealthy son of her client, one who is at the top of the social list, successful and handsome he can have anyone woman he wants. He decides he wants Liza and will do whatever it takes to earn her trust and find out about the shadows in her eyes.

High powered event planner with a booming business, Liza is the kind of woman I aspire to be. In control, making things happen everywhere—except in her personal life. Beware of the Cowboy made me realize something I should have always known. No one has to understand your relationship as long as it fits you and the person you love. Black’s ability to accept Liza’s personality flaw but still maintain his position as the man in their relationship was impressive and something a lot of men could learn from. I say that with a smile brought on by the truth of the statement and the feeling I got from reading Mari Freeman’s sensual love story with a sweet and happy ending.
