Review: Keeping Him


Keeping Him
(Bishop Brothers #4)

Published September 18th 2018



Jackson Bishop is your typical playboy.
Unpredictable, charming, and overly confident.

Growing up in Texas, the ranch life is all he’s ever known. Horses and late night partying are his lifestyles, and all the local girls know it too. Riding lessons aren’t the only things taught at the stables, and he makes sure clients never leave unsatisfied. Everyone knows Jackson’s a wild card, but not everything is as it seems. He may be a womanizer on the surface, but he’s hiding deep feelings about the one who’s had his heart since he was a teen. Unfortunately, it’s not as simple as roping her in and claiming her as his.

Kiera Young is well-known for her sassy nature and outgoing personality. Though she’s one of the best horse trainers in the area, she’s never been able to tame her best friend and the man she’s secretly loved since she was fifteen—Jackson Bishop. She’s waited years for him to confess his true feelings but as time goes on, she decides she’s done waiting. Kiera finally meets a man who promises to give her the world, and when he pops the question, she says yes—knowing they’re both ready to settle down and start a family.

Even if her heart beats for another man.

Jackson’s certain he’s lost Kiera for good and has no one to blame but himself. However, on the day of her wedding, he can’t bring himself to watch the woman he loves walk down the aisle to someone else. Kiera’s already having second thoughts and knows she can’t get married without his support. It’s not until she’s at the altar that she realizes she can’t let Jackson go and will do whatever it takes to keep him—even if it means running out on her own wedding.



Finally we get Jackson's story!  He has been dancing around Kiera all their lives. Every book, I was rooting for them to finally get over themselves and be together. 

Kiera gave up on Jackson, though and decides to marry the local Vet.  He isn't so great but she wants the whole husband, house, kids and go tired of waiting for Jackson to get his head on straight. The book starts in the present and then goes back in time all over the place.  If I had a wish, I may have wanted that to play out differently. I found myself wanting to skip over some of those back chapters and get back to finding out what was happening in the present. 

That said. This was a great round up to the series. A little bit of angst, some suspense and some explosive loving when it came down to it.  Loved the epilogue and catching up with the whole family again.  A great bunch of characters all around.
