Cowboy’s Cafe Crush by Clara Pines
Trinity Falls Sweet Romance – Icicle Christmas #3
Release Date: February 13, 2024
He’s keeping his fortune a secret and pretending to date his crush. But if this city man-turned cowboy wants to land true love this holiday season, he might just have to lay all his cards on the table.
Holly Fields loves her small town, her job at the local café, and even her gruff boss. But life has handed her a difficult year. Her big sister passed away, breaking her heart. And Holly now has custody of her beloved niece. Making sure the bright eight-year-old has love, support, and everything she needs is a privilege that is worth any challenge she might bump into along the way. But when Holly’s mom constantly voices her fears that it’s too much for a young woman to do alone, it feels a bit like she’s just waiting for Holly to mess up.
In a moment of weakness, Holly hints that she’s seeing someone, even though dating is the last thing on her mind. And when a surprise holiday visit leaves her in the lurch, help arises from the most unexpected source.
Julian Cabrera just made a fortune selling a tech invention so specialized even his own family doesn’t understand it. Moving to small town Trinity Falls to be near his sister Angel gives him time to get his head around his new financial position before he has to tell anyone else about it. He works at Cassidy Farm in the mornings and spends his afternoons at the local café, trying to come up with his next project – something meaningful that might actually make the world a better place.
When Julian overhears that his favorite waitress is in a jam, he steps in to help her without hesitation. After all, he has admired her kind spirit and pretty smile since his very first visit to the coffee shop. The opportunity to spend more time with the sweet young woman and her exuberant niece is too much for the cowboy-in-training to resist.
But as the holiday season unfurls, will the two be able to keep up the ruse? Or is fake dating your real crush too hard after all?

Cowboy’s Cafe Crush by Clara Pines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Holly is doing her best to make sure her niece is taken care off. Since her sister passed she’s been her sole provider and nothing comes before her happiness and wellbeing. Giving into the attraction she has toward Julian is not in the cards for her, no matter how wonderful it seems to be.
Julian has had a crush on the lovely waiter for a while now. He’s been wandering around, helping on the in-laws farm in the mornings and trying to find the best way to get the spark back after he sold his company for a huge amount. When an opportunity presents itself he takes it and is doing all to show Holly he could be a great boyfriend to her and help her take care of her niece. But assumptions almost leave them without the HEA. But sometimes all you need to do is trust that love is all we need and let the walls down in order to find the HEA we all search for.
