An unforgettable one-night stand filled with heat and passion starts the unraveling of a love-hate feud between a small-town baker and an arrogant cowboy.


When Katarina shows up at the Circle B Ranch Bed & Breakfast to serve her new gluten-free, sugar-free, organic pastries, Braxton decides to make her life hell for kicking him out the next morning and then pretending he never existed.

First step, make fun of her tasteless muffins.
Second step, get revenge.

Soon the duo are at each other’s throats, getting even until things go too far and the chemistry burns too hot.

Kat claims their night together meant nothing.
He’s determined to prove her wrong.


Roping the Cowboy is a short story between the Bishop Brothers and Circle B Ranch series. It can be read as a stand-alone and is suggested for 18+ due to mature content.

Delicious romance

Delicious romance
This southern number is delightfully yummy! It involves romance between a baker and a ranch hand with hilarious pranks while getting a taste of some of the Bishop boys current life. This is a perfect book to read while soaking up the summer sun! I think Kat & Braxton’s relationship is my new favorite from @kennedyfoxbooks and they are one of my all time fave authors..I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the publisher. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.

This is the first book by Kennedy I have read. It was a great funny, quick, steamy read. Katarina and Braxton have a one-night stand. He figures that she is just passing through because he has never seen her before. He is so wrong. She owns the bakery in town specializing in gluten free goodies. The ranch has hired her to supply those goodies for their guests. Now they are constantly running into each other. Katarina acts like nothing happened and Braxton can’t stop thinking about her. The two begin to play pranks on each other. The have a crazy attraction to each other. How long will they be able to fight it before they give in? This book had me laughing so much. Katarina managed to get underneath Braxton’s skin without even trying. Katarina likes him just as much but all he seems to do is make fun of the thing she is most proud of her, her baked goods. I can’t wait to read more about these characters. Wonderful job Kennedy.

I don't know how they do it, but each and every book I read from Kennedy Fox becomes a top favorite for me! It's like they know exactly what I want each time I pick up their latest releases! As I said in some other reviews of their books, they can write angsty, emotional romances AND humorous, lighthearted reads- it doesn't matter which trope because they slay it every time! If you haven't had a chance to read this one I recommend grabbing a copy because it is free on amazon.

Roping the Cowboy was first released on the Read Me Romance podcast and then published as an eBook. It's the first book in the Circle B Ranch series but can stand alone. The stories are interconnected but you can read them in any order. As I always say though, I recommend reading the series in order so that you won't be spoiled when it comes to previous characters relationships.

This particular book is a novella. I read it in about an hour so you can breeze through it in the same amount of time. It's a nice little prequel to the series. The trope featured in this one is enemies-to-lovers and let me tell you, you can almost FEEL the hatred between these two! Not only that, their banter and interactions will have you howling in laughter! The pranks they play on each other are hilarious!

If you're looking for a book like I described above then you won't want to miss this one! I can personally recommend nearly all of their books (I haven't read them all but I will!).

This has been my least favorite book by this author so far. It was a quick read and it felt like the story was rushed. The pranks were funny but a little over the top. I can’t imagine anyone going to that length in pranking someone.

I read a couple of the other reviews about the authors not getting the facts straight between the other books. For instance, Mila being from Alabama instead of Georgia. I thought it was me and that I just remembered wrong. Glad to know it wasn’t me.

Gluten-intolerant eaters can be sensitive.... in more ways than one.

All you happy readers out there ---- you will laugh your heads off in the beginning of this story. I literally had tears coming out of my eyelids. My husband thought I was crazy until I read the parts I was laughing at.
Here are just some of the storylines:

"Don't be so dramatic!"

'The thought of Braxton sending Kat a picture of the ceramic throne.'

"Chocolate laxatives!"

"Stop being a wuss!"

'.... this isn't over sweetheart - not in the least. Time to get even.'

Now it gets mushy---------------
Kat's blind date Noah ended up being a blessing in disguise and the reason she met Braxton that night.

"Get a room!"

Her forever Cowboy! Oh, what a happy ending.

Check out this series: Circle B Ranch (9 book series) I have read the first book (Hitching the Cowboy) already and plan on reading the rest soon. Enjoy and happy reading, lovelies!

HOLY MOLY!!! If you are ready for an amazing HOT read, then you need to grab this book. I have been so looking forward to getting this book to hear about Braxton & Kat who we were introduced to with the book Falling For the Cowboy. I knew it would be great since Kennedy Fox never lets us down on heat, passion and love! I love how they are just instantly drawn to each other and that fire is in and out of the bedroom! This is a quick read as novella but if you are like me you'll love it just as much as every Kennedy Fox book.

Also I loved being back at the Bishop ranch and getting to hear from some of our most loved characters there in Texas.

Braxton definitely could say love at first sight and he waited an hour to grab the opportunity to claim her for himself. Katherine or "Kat" has done all the dating tips to find the one, she gets the duds. The latest dating app has her waiting for a date that does not show. Now she has a Sexy Cowboy trying his Southern Charm. She doesn't do one night stands. They end as enemies until pranks out then over the line. Between the pranks, work, friends the sparks the fire almost out of control, until the romance has the fire consuming them. V1, S2 So sweet the romance & pranks on my.

I absolutely love the writing from these two lovely ladies, I'm currently playing catch up and reading the beginning of this series since I've missed the first 3 including the novella. This series can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading them all, I also recommend the Bishop Series that started the second generation series. They are simply amazing easy to read and page turner you don't want to put them down once you start. With that being said off to jump into the next. Happy reading :)

Katarina is trying to meet "The One" but when her blind date doesn't show up she decides to go home with the handsome cowboy at the bar but then kicks him out first thing in the morning.

Braxton works at Bishop Ranch and is shocked when he is rudely kicked out by the girl he met at the bar but when she shows up at the Ranch 6 months later with her gluten free muffins he is shocked.

Soon a "war of revenge" erupts between Katarina and Braxton and will either give way to how they truly feel?

This is a quick fun read that had me laughing quite a book when Kat and Braxton were at war.

I liked Kat but I knew she was really denying how she felt about Braxton right from the start. I give her credit for being so creative and I laughed so hard with the things she did to Braxton!

I really liked Braxton and I understood why he was so hurt and mad after Kat kicked him out as he knew that the two of them had so much instant chemistry. I laughed at the things that he did to Kat but I think she definitely one upped him!

The parking lot scene was awesome and so overdue!!

The end was great and I was happy for how it all turned out!
