Shoulda Been a Cowboy by Maisey Yates (Cooper Ridge Novella)

There's not much about his teenage years that Jake Caldwell can be proud of. Except maybe for keeping his hands off cute, kindhearted Cassie Ventimiglia. She was the only one who saw him as more than a tattooed rebel who couldn't wait to leave the ranching life behind. Now he's back in Copper Ridge to sell his father's property—and staying right above Cassie's coffee shop. And out of nowhere, the girl he's never forgotten is offering a whole lot more than fresh-baked muffins…
Jake's dark, smoldering appeal hasn't changed one bit. But Cassie has. Following everyone else's rules didn't quite work out. Time to ask for what she's always wanted…and what Jake's more than happy to give: a wild, hot romance that could make a one-time bad boy realize he's back for good.

My Review:  3 out of 5

This is listed as a prequel novella to introduce readers to a new series, based in Cooper Ridge, Oregon and it does it's job, introducing the town and its inhabitants.  It has that Harlequin Romance feel to it, following the tried and tested path, but it is a nice, short story by itself, can be read alone as each book revolves around a different couple.  

Would I read the next in the series or another story by this Author? 

 Yes, the preview for the next book seems interesting, so it would be one I would read.

Would I recommend someone else to read this story?

Yes, if they are looking for a light, quick romance story.
