Publisher's summary

Alex Bishop is your typical cowboy. Charming, sexy, and wears a panty-melting smirk. Working on the ranch helped build his solid eight-pack and smoking body. He's every girl's wet fantasy and he knows it too. Alex doesn't follow the rules of your typical playboy bachelor. After wining and dining his dates and giving them the best night of their lives, he always sends flowers and calls the next day - even if it's to say, let's just be friends.

His mama taught him manners after all and his Southern blood knows how to be a gentleman. Still, that isn't enough to tame the wildest of the Bishop brothers. River Lancaster has finally met the man of her dreams. Too bad after six months of romantic bliss, she finds out he's married. With a broken heart and blind rage, she books herself a ticket to Key West, Florida. Tired of cheaters and liars, she's set on escaping to forget he ever existed. Who needs a man when there's an all-you-can-drink margarita bar, anyway?

That's what she tells herself until she bumps into the right guy who can make all those bad memories disappear. Even if it's only temporarily. Two weeks on the beach is what they both need. No strings attached, no expectations, no broken hearts. Too bad the universe has other plans - one that'll change the entire course of their lives in just nine short months.

Stellar Performance

The male narrator! *fans face* Well, let's just say I could listen to him all day...and night!

I enjoyed the story very much. I will definitely be reading more in this series.

My Two Pennies

Love a southern drawl and these narrators were spot on. Ride ‘em Cowboy! Alex is THE Bishop man that has won my heart. River’s story breaks my heart but she is so strong and I love the career she chose in life. When a vacation turns into so much more I am wishing to have experiences like that and that bucket list... hello! I was in tears at times both happy and sad. Getting to know the whole Bishop family is great and seeing how close knit and loving they are is beautiful. I cannot wait to hear the rest of the boys stories the Doctor is in next and I’m curious to see what happens. This is my unbiased and voluntary review

Taming him

This is an excellent intro to the Bishops. Can’t wait to read another part. This is one of the best-series that I’ve heard.

Good story, Great narration

The story about River and Alex is solid. It’s well done but it may have benefited from a little bit more excitement or conflict/resolution.
The narration was fabulous…as you would expect from Savannah and Aiden. They are stars.
On to book 2!

Swooning for the Cowboy

Let me start with high praise for Aiden Snow's performance: holy cow, he rocked. His southern drawl had me wiping drool from my chin and fanning myself awkwardly. 'Nuf said.

As for the story of Alex and River: it was sweet, funny, sultry, ridiculous, crazy, raucous, silly, and hot, hot, hot. Match: meet flame! I loved their flirtiness, their friendship, and their passion. Alex was full of southern gentlemanly charm and beautiful things to say, but he could also keep up with River's outrageous banter as well. They were just a really fun couple with a great story. Combined with River's no-filter best friend and the entire Bishop family, the cast of characters was broad and rich.

Readers can expect adult language and themes, along with pretty graphic love scenes. This is definitely an adult read. It's full of cowboy swagger & city girl swoon, along with tons of heart and some over the top LOLs along the way. It's also got a really great and imaginative "scavenger hunt" as well.

All around GREAT

Loved this story. This book kept my interest from start to finish! Loved the narration also. Im from Louisiana so a lot of southern narration are over done with way too much country slang this was very well done.

Fun slice of life

So, for a slice of life story, 11 hours was a bit too drawn out. But honestly, I liked Alex (he made some mistakes but who doesn't) and I liked River, who overall was really sweet. Not much happened- Alex was a redeemed rake after he met River on vacation, there's a surprise baby. And now they need to learn to live their new normal. Very little angst, which I really liked but the story kind of just ambled on. So, I wish it was shorter but the story itself was well written and sweet.

I listened to the audiobook and that was part of the reason I just couldn't put the book down. I love Savannah Peachwood- ssuch a sweet voice that was perfect for River. Her male voice was a little forced but still I had no trouble getting into the story. Aiden Snow, with his deep, Texas voice, was perfect. I could listen to him read anything but since this was also a fun book to boot, it was a fantastic way to spend my time!

Taming Him

This is a cute, adorable, and sweet story. Alex and River have amazing chemistry, their banter is cute, and the friendship they develop is beautiful. Although this was a long book, it was well written, and it flowed perfectly. I enjoyed this heartwarming story immensely.
Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood are outstanding like always. They both know exactly how to bring the characters to life.

I'm hooked after reading Taming Him!

This was my first Kennedy Fox read and I absolutely loved it, so much so that I read it twice! I would definitely consider this my gateway book into the world of Kennedy Fox. After reading Taming Him, I was hooked and binged the rest of the Bishop Brothers series!

I'm a sucker for a small town, cowboy romance and Kennedy Fox delivered with this story! I loved the main characters, Alex and River and the connection the two shared throughout the entire book. It was fun and exciting, with lots of steamy scenes throughout the beginning part of the book and then it becomes more serious for both River and Alex while they grow and adjust to their new situation. The book starts with two people knowing almost nothing about each other and turns into a beautiful love story by the end!

The way Taming Him ends is such a great segway into Needing Him that you'll want to start reading immediately, so do yourself a favor and buy all 4 Bishop Brothers books now!
