Wild About the Wrangler (Sexy Texans #2)by Vicki Lewis Thompson

Expert rider Mac Foster’s got it bad for Anastasia Bickford, but he’s fighting it. Not only is she a friend—she’s his boss’s sister, making her the last person he should be lusting after. To make matters worse, she’s creating a name for herself as an artist, and it’s only a matter of time before the world comes knocking at her door.
Though Anastasia has a growing reputation for her vivid drawings of a legendary wild stallion they call the Ghost, she’s never seen him. A secret fear of horses has forced her to rely only on photos. Since no one knows the Ghost better than Mac, he can help her overcome her fear by teaching her to ride. But in order to get closer to the stallion, she’ll have to get closer to the man.

My Review:
Wild About the Wrangler was difficult for me to take seriously with all the "can I touch" stuff going on. It was like watching a blind person or a victim kept away from society trying to validate life for the first time on top of coping with trauma. It was more silly than romantic because you get all the off and on pilot light interest between Mac and Anastasia but I never felt any simmer from either of them that established passion. It just felt like they were going through the motions that were brought down to observations than actual feeling. I felt an initial start off with the story but then it just seems to hitch and catch on that and never really get anywhere. Wild About the Wrangler was a slow paced romance but I wish we had actually gotten more romance out of it.
