Circle B Ranch #9
Seducing the Cowboy
After leaving his hometown seven years ago, Payton hasn’t returned. One heartbreak was enough to turn him off relationships forever. As soon as he arrived at the Circle B Ranch, they treated him like family—something he’s never had—and he met the one woman he shouldn’t want.
He’s put her in the friend zone, but after agreeing to her proposition, he can’t hold back anymore.
Kaitlyn Bishop is the only woman on the ranch without a husband and kids. A family is all she’s ever wanted, but it’s never been in her cards. Since she’s turned thirty, she’s decided to go to the sperm bank, but then her best friend offers to knock her up.
She knows being friends with benefits is a bad idea, but she’s willing to take the risk.
Their agreement is purely transactional, but they’ll soon find themselves in too deep—something they’re too stubborn to admit. However, they only have nine months to figure it out.
Seducing the Cowboy is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books or spin-off series, but if you prefer to read in order, start with Hitching the Cowboy as the characters and families do interconnect.

I'm struggling to put into words how much I loved this book. I held off reading it for a few days, because I didn't want it to end. If I don't read it, it doesn't end, right? But I did read it, and boy did it capture my heart like all the Bishop books.
Seducing the Cowboy is a friends-to-lovers story, where Kaitlyn wants to have a baby, and Payton her best friend wants to be the man to help her achieve this. I was hesitant on the premise, but once the story started KF reminded me why they are my favorite author. I love the Bishops like they are my own family, and it's been so beautiful to watch them grow. Kate and Payton, who have been dancing around each other the whole series, finally got their happy ending.
I love Kaitlyn's bold and strong personality. Independent characters can come off as harsh or intense and if not written well overall unlikeable. Kaitlyn, my girl, is so relatable and kind. Her no bullshit springs more from growing up with twin brothers and having to hold her own. And Payton. Oh my sweet sweet Payton. After getting his heart broken in his hometown he moves to Eldorado, which leads to seven years of pining for Kaitlyn and a very close friendship. These two belong together, and I enjoy how everyone knows it. A lot of the Bishop relationships start with the couple sneaking around so the family doesn't find out. Every person is basically Leslie Jordan saying, "what y'all doing? screwing?" and no matter how much they protest, no one believes them. This might be my new fave Bishop book...guess I'll just have to read them all again to find out!
I'm so grateful that the Bishops' story will continue in the Texas Heat series. Sad we can't get stories from all 32 grandkids, but I guess I'll settle for 9 lol. So excited for all KF has to come.
TLDR - READ THIS BOOK. READ THIS SERIES. READ THIS AUTHOR.

I wasn’t ready for this. But it hurts a little less knowing there will be a third generation series and this won’t be the last I’ll see of this family I love so much.
Seducing the Cowboy was a great series finale, though. These two were perfect for each other! The banter, the friendship, the tension, the love… it was all so good.
I loved Kaitlyn. She was a hoot. I loved how she took her life into her own hands and didn’t care what everyone would think/say.
Payton was such an incredible guy. My heart broke for him from that epilogue but then seeing the life he built for himself in the Bishop ranch made it better. He belonged to the family, even before becoming the daddy to a Bishop baby ahah.
I honestly loved this plot. It was endearing, heartwarming, steamy, fun and I loved how the actual relationship was a slow burn. It was just so good. I really loved these two together and their journey was beautiful.
Then, I got to those epilogues and my heart broke. Man, I mean I knew it would have to come at some point but I wasn’t ready. And it’s gonna hurt reading the next series, it will. But I’m also really excited for it! The plot of the first book sounds so good; I love second chance romances.

Payton and Kaitlyn have been friends since Payton first arrived at Circle B Ranch. They spend a lot of time together and you can feel just how much they truly care about each other.
Kaitlyn is feeling left out when all her cousins and siblings are getting married and starting families of their own. She knows that she isn’t getting any younger and decides it is time to take matters into her own hands. Payton is about to let Kaitlyn go through this alone. Even though he has feelings for his friend, he will do anything to make her happy, including having a baby with her when there is no hope of a relationship.
These two have INSANE chemistry. They have a great foundation with their friendship that them to co-parent isn’t that strange of an idea. However, when rules are set and boundaries are marked the lines can easily be blurred. I loved seeing the progression of their relationship. I loved how well they worked together and how supportive they are of each other.
This is bittersweet that it is the end of this second generation of Bishop’s but I can’t wait to return for the third generation.
If you’re looking for a small town, friends to lovers romance this is one to check out.

I’ve been waiting for Kaitlyns book!
We’ve slowly seen the build up for her story in this series and I think it’s safe to say, we’ve all been wanting her to get her HEA! This story has so many laugh out loud moments, while it also shines a light on the struggle for some women. And then we have Payton who will do whatever he can to keep his best friend around and happy while sacrificing his own feelings. So we they agree to have a baby together things are bound to get messy, even with rules in place. Rules are made to be broken, but whose gonna break them first?

Kennedy Fox did an amazing job with Seducing The Cowboy! The last of the second generation series and my heart is full and emotional at the same time. After nine books, I have become attached to this family!
This book is Kaitlyn and Payton's story. It's a friends to friends with benefits to lovers romance story.
Being the last one still single, and Kaitlyn's biological clock ticking, she decides to take matters into her own hands and use a sperm bank.
That doesn't sit well with her best friend Payton and the two form an agreement.
It's supposed to be transactional only but how many times has that worked out?
I thoroughly enjoyed these two along with Kane and Knox being the best aggravating meddling brothers they can be!
Then that extra epilogue! My heart broke a little but the story that is to come made up for it!
If you have never met the Bishop clan, you need to remedy that ASAP! There are two generations out there and a third generation is coming!

OBSESSED.
Idk how this is my first book by Kennedy fox but when I say I am officially in love I mean it!!!
I didn’t know how I would feel about the pregnancy trope, but I was actually vibing?! I think because the FMC really wants a baby, and the fact that it wasn’t a surprise pregnancy, made me enjoy it more & very happy!
I knew I was going to love Kaitlyn right off the bat but ooooh boy, her and Payton are such a duo. Who doesn’t love best friends to lovers like come ON. And Payton with his praise kink 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Their chemistry is amazing. And I swear I was squealing so many times while reading. I was not ready for the heat 💦💦💦
I thought it was such a lovely story and the ending had my heart melting and me tearing up!! Everyone needs to read this book!

4.5 "Baby Fever" Stars
⭐️
It's always a pleasure to read about the Bishop family and Seducing the Cowboy was surely one of my favorite books in the Circle B Ranch Series! It was filled with playful, emotional and passionate moments that I treasured.
This story was about Kaitlyn, the baby of the Bishop family, and let me tell you that this woman is something. She reminded me so much of her father, Jackson! Always cracking a joke and no filter. She owns he actions and words and is so funny. I absolutely loved her personality. I felt Payton completed her so well. The guy is more of an introvert and really a good guy. There's nothing he wouldn't do for his best friend, the woman he's secretly in love with, therefore he embarks on this crazy journey of getting her pregnant.
Their friendship was beautiful and it was quite apparent from the start that deeper feelings were involved. When they started trying to make a baby, the intense chemistry between them was just wow! The sexy moments were truly hot, but with touches of sweet and tender too. Seriously, Kaitlyn and Payton were gorgeous.
This book wouldn't be the same without all the other Bishop family members! All the love and teasing between them made Seducing the Cowboy utterly enjoyable! The only little downside, and the reason I didn't rate it five stars, is the flow of the story from chapter to chapter in the second half of the book that rushed the book to conclusion.
It was bittersweet knowing this novel is the last in the Circle B Ranch Series. But the good news is that next year Kennedy Fox will release a new series about the third generation of Bishops, Texas Heat Series. Yay!!!

4.5 Star review Seducing The Cowboy (Circle B Ranch #9) by Kennedy Fox
AUDIO REVIEW:
It’s always fun to return to the Circle B Ranch, with the Bishop family and their friends. This is Kaitlyn and Payton’s friends to lovers story. The narration by Tor Thom and Lia Langola brought the story to life. Their voices were expressive, particularly with all the emotions that Kaitlyn went through and pleasant to listen too. .
Kaitlyn wants a baby so badly and between them they come up with a plan to help her achieve her goals. There were a number of laugh out loud moments whilst listening and my husband thought I had lost the plot.
It was entertaining to watch the push and pull dynamic of the relationship as it developed from friends with benefits to so much more. Seducing The Cowboy is well written and you will be drawn into the story that Kennedy Fox wove. I have to say the epilogue brought tears to my eyes.

Payton doesn’t do relationships because he was burned in the past. So when all the guys at the ranch think he should get with Kate he tells them to F off because she’s his best friend and he would never do anything to jeopardize that. Even if he’s secretly loved her for years.. so when she needs some sperm to make a baby he doesn’t know what comes over him when he offers his.
Kaitlyn is the only sibling not married with kids. And she’s absolutely over it she wants a baby even if that means she’ll be doing it alone. Until her best friend offers to help her out.
They have rules and falling in love isn’t one of them.
“I don’t get on my knees for just anyone.”
"There's a reason it always felt right with you."
Loved this so much I cried a little and laughed out loud💗
Yes this is a pregnancy trope not a surprise one. And it’s done perfectly!

Payton and Kaitlyn >>>
This book was perfection. Kaitlyn is single and now in her 30’s and desperately wants to have a baby and a family of her own, but Mr. Right still hasn’t showed up.
Her best guy friend Payton, who has a somewhat tragic past and left behind his hometown, offers to be her temporary fwb and get her pregnant. 👀 the two agree to set a rules to make sure they don’t catch catch feelings for each other. You’ll have to read this book to figure out what happens next!!!
This was my first kennedy fox book and I absolutely loved it. Can’t wait to go back and read the rest of their books!

September 8, 2022
I can't believe this series is over. *sobs* This was such a good wrap up to this generation of the Bishops. It was everything that defines the family, it was so sweet yet spicy. We love a good friends to lovers romance, because seeing Payton and Kaitlyn as best friends first was the absolute cutest. Just everything about this book had me all giddy the entire time while reading it. I caught myself grinning at my kindle like a fool. Ugh, I just can't even put into words how good this was. And of course we got a sneak peek into the next generation of Bishops that I already can't wait for. Overall, this was everything I needed after Only Him ripped my heart to shreds. It made me want to immediately reread all of the Bishops stories from the beginning which might need to happen in the near future. 10 out of 10, would recommend.

The Circle B Ranch series has been a fantastic series and this final book definitely lives up to the high bar set by the previous books!
Kaitlyn Bishop has been one feisty firecracker throughout the series and she been one of my favorite side characters for several books. I’ve been eagerly awaiting her story and chance at a HEA!
Kaitlyn is emotionally frustrated at being the last single Bishop cousin with no romantic prospects in sight. She so badly wants to be a mother, and she sees her chance getting unlikelier as she gets older.
I love how once a Bishop gets an idea in their head they are determined to make it happen. Kaitlyn is determined to become a mother and she has a unconventional new Plan A solution - using donor sperm. Payton is disturbed by the idea of her getting pregnant by some other guy and he decides to ask her if she was really serious about what she said at the reception weeks prior.
Trying to get pregnant with their best friend while keeping to rules to allow them to return to a just friends status to co-parent is a challenging thin line to navigate. I love how the alternating POV from Payton and Kaitlyn help reveal their inner thoughts and emotions, how they react to the various Bishop family member’s comments. The Bishop family does nosy better than almost any other family. This book has many of the Bishops involved which add to the story and update us on the growth of their families.
The laughter, hi-jinx and emotions of a Circle B Ranch book are all present an accounted for in Seducing the Cowboy. What happens when they get pregnant, is as much of question as what happens if they don’t succeed in getting pregnant?
This book has several epilogues which wrap up the series and serve as bridge to the first book in the next series about the third generation of Bishops.
I received a free ARC from the authors and I am voluntarily leaving an unbiased review.

Seducing The Cowboy by Kennedy Fox
Circle B Ranch #9 - releasing August 23rd
“I’m worried I might never become a mom. That there might be something wrong with me.” “Besides you caffeine addiction, your perfect.”
I’m a little sad as this book marked the end of the Circle B Ranch series and the end of this generation of Bishops! Kaitlyn and Payton’s book is amazing, it’s a baby of convenience, best friend to lovers book and it’s hot! These two definitely know how to get it on, wink wink!
Kaitlyn is the youngest bishop and for all of her life has just wanted to be a mum, and nows she’s seen all her cousins and brother find their someone and have babies she’s feels left behind. So when her best friend offers to help she’s thrown at first but decides to take him up on the offer.
Payton loves working on the ranch, it’s something he’s done all his life and doesn’t see himself doing anything different. So when he got the opportunity to work on the bishops ranch he took it. He now has a new family on the ranch and his best friend shares the same passion he does. So when she says she is having a baby on her own, his feels for her make him offer to be the other to put it there Instead of a doctor.
This book is absolutely amazing. It has spice and babies and everything you would expect with all the bishops thrown in. I do have to give a special mention to the bonus epilogue, my gosh! Now I really do recommend the wholes bishop collection it’s brilliant.
I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of Seducing The Cowboy and for that I’m very grateful.

This is the end to the series, and I hate that it ends but we also get a glimpse at the end of the book what is coming next, and I cannot wait.
The stars in this book is Payton and Kaitlin. She is the last single grandchild in this series and Payton is her best friend. She has never seen Payton as anything more than her bestie, but Payton has always crushed on her in a big way.
When he finds out she wants a child and is willing to go the sperm route, he asks her to consider him as her babies' daddy and this takes them on a very interesting journey and adds a different aspect to their friendship.
Largely this is their journey to parenthood from when Kaitlin comes up with the plan and Payton asks her to consider him through pregnancy and into their happily ever after. I really found their journey very realistic and loved watching these two find each other. Payton has always known how he felt about Kaitlin, but this is her journey into finding out how she feels about him as they go on this very special journey to parenthood together.
I loved their story. It is very different from any of the books in the series. I also adored their special relationship and loved where the authors took them as they see what is really in their hearts. The ending of this story was awesome, and I cannot wait to see the next part of this awesome family.
I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
The stars in this book is Payton and Kaitlin. She is the last single grandchild in this series and Payton is her best friend. She has never seen Payton as anything more than her bestie, but Payton has always crushed on her in a big way.
When he finds out she wants a child and is willing to go the sperm route, he asks her to consider him as her babies' daddy and this takes them on a very interesting journey and adds a different aspect to their friendship.
Largely this is their journey to parenthood from when Kaitlin comes up with the plan and Payton asks her to consider him through pregnancy and into their happily ever after. I really found their journey very realistic and loved watching these two find each other.

I've got to say this title is a bit misleading because I didn't find the need for Kaitlyn to seduce Payton because he came more than willing.
They have been friends since he came to her family ranch.
But as Kaitlyn's brothers are starting to get married and having children, she senses her biological clock is ticking. Her take charge attitude has her researching what is the best
way for her to become a mother. But when Payton sees this, his hidden feelings have had enough. He’s willing to make her dream come true and in return he will be there every step of the way. The more time they spend wrapped up in each other, the more difficult it becomes keeping the line between friends and love straight and narrow.
I loved how everyone was giving them a hard time about being together even before anything happened between them. This ranch and its habitants are a fun group of people to be around with.
This series is heavy on the sexy times but also full of heart and swoon. Each couple brings something new to the table and you can’t help but want to be a part of their circle.

The chemistry between these two! Loved it. They have quite a strong foundation because they've been best friends for years even if they don't necessarily acknowledge it.
Payton left his hometown following the end of a relationship and some family drama. He quickly found a job and a new home at the Circle B Ranch. He met Kaitlyn his very first day and loved everything about her. But he didn't want to repeat what had happened in the past so he kept her in the friend zone.
Kaitlyn Bishop has witnessed all her cousins fall in love and begin families, the one thing she's longed for. Having recently turned thirty and tired of waiting, she's decided to go to a sperm bank or ask her best friend to knock her up.
Not wanting to risk their friendship too much she proposes they stick to a schedule while she's ovulating of hooking up. Soon they find themselves breaking little rules they put in place and fighting their true feelings. Something their too stubborn to admit.
Thank you so much to the authors for this ARC to review!
It's bittersweet that this is the last back for this generation of Bishops but I loved every book in this series.

4.5 Saucy, delicious stars
I have loved every book in this series but honestly this one was my favourite. I loved Payton and Kaitlyn together, they were perfect. They were friends but it was so much more.
Payton will seriously make you SWOON and swoon HARD. He is the type of guy you want. Sweet, caring and the full package. He wasn't dealt a great hand with his family but his move to Circle B ranch was the best thing for him. Kaitlyn is honestly the perfect girl for him. She is loud and full of personality, she loves horses like him but has a vulnerable side that she only shows a few.
I am sad this is the last book in this series but this was the perfect way to say goodbye. Although I am hoping we will still see the people we have fallen in love with in more books somehow.
I was gifted a copy of this book by the Author. This is my honest opinion

Can I just say that there is just something about this one that was absolute perfection to finish off the second generation of Bishops? My heart sang as I read this book. Kaitlyn and Payton were everything and more together. Aside from being best friends, their connection is intense and it is the classic they care for one another more than just friends but are scared to say something. But when the baby making proposal is brought up, all bets are off. These two are pure fire. Their wit and banter made me laugh at times. I loved how Payton kept up Kaitlyn’s spirits too. Then you have the antics of the whole Bishop clan which adds so much depth to the story.
Not gonna lie, I bawled at the end of this book. When you get to it, you will know but mine is for more than one reason. But I won’t say why due to it being a big spoiler. Kennedy Fox delivers on a sizzling swoon worthy story yet again and I am dying to get my hands on the third generation though, in some ways, it won’t be the same. Seeing this family grow has been something special!

4.5 stars
Kaitlyn's story has been teased throughout the series, so it's only fitting that her story is the final one of the second generation of Bishops. And as with all the others in the series, it's filled with lots of love, humor, and heat. She and Payton have been friends forever, and an off-handed drunk comment about asking him to impregnate her changes the course of their relationship. I don't know if Kaitlyn really knew how Payton felt about her or not, but he definitely had to think things through before giving her an answer. Obviously, the answer was yes......and I wasn't prepared for the steam that was between them, especially that first time. Whoa. Those two were pure fire. And it didn't take long for the lines to blur between them.
While I'm sad that this is the end to the Circle B Ranch series, I'm glad that we will be getting a third generation of Bishop families to read about. I love spending time on the ranch and I'm glad that I don't have to say a final goodbye just yet.

Give it to Kennedy Fox to create the story that warms my heart through most of it then makes my cry at the end!
Payton and Kaitlyn have had a long way to finally become a couple. They have been best friends for years but Payton has his issue so even if he has a feeling for Kaitlyn, he didn't act on it... until Kaitlyn wanted a baby and Payton volunteered to be her sperm donor in an old-fashioned way. The story is super sweet and endearing but sexy and steamy AF. I think Payton and Kaitlyn are the only couple that Kennedy Fox made them stars in sex scenes more than another couples (fan my face) and I like it A LOT.
This book is the best way to end the series and the best way to give us, readers, a glimpse of the next generation. Now I can't wait for their new series which is the 3rd generation of Circle B Ranch but I think I will go back and binge read Bishop Brothers series while I'm wait for it ;)

Very bittersweet that this is the end of the Circle B Ranch series, but Seducing the Cowboy was the perfect send off. I feel like I have been waiting for Kaitlyn's book for forever and let me tell you, that girl is 10000% her father's daughter and did not disappoint. Payton is everything you love about a southern gentleman and add in a great best friend, he was willing to do anything he could to keep Kaitlyn happy, even sacrifice his own heart. Their journey was definitely a slow burn and also touched on some of the struggles women face when TTC.
I loved that everyone knew they were meant to be together but they were just too blind to see it. There were plenty of laugh out loud moments, sweet tender moments with Grandma Rose and lots of Bishop's. While I am sad to see this series end, I know it is just the beginning of the next generation of Bishop's to take center stage!

I'm so sad this series is over but this was the perfect ending. This is the last book in the NINE books series, Circle B Ranch, and it was the perfect ending to an amazing series 🥹😭 I have never been so interested in a book series or a world as I have been with this series.
Payton agrees to help Kaitlyn with somethings she's always wanted and the spice starts very soon!! The epilogues in the book provide the most perfect ending and got me so excited for what’s to come in this world! Payton and Kaitlyn’s story has been very anticipated for me and it delivered in being the perfect spicy small town romance. I loved all the mentions of other members of the Bishop family and I will always come back to this series to reread, it's just so good!! 🥵🔥

Payton and Kaitlyn easily moved into one of my favorite couple's spots. Kaitlyn is sassy and feisty but she's feeling like she's never going to meet her match, have babies and have a family like so many of her Bishop family has experienced. Payton has been best friends with Kaitlyn for seven years, enduring the ribbing of her brothers and hiding his desire for more. A drunken request by Kaitlyn opens the door to a new pathway for their relationship, which they agree to take with both trepidation and expectation. My heart ached for them both but it also sighed with relief as they overcame their fears and trusted the love they'd always shared.

This is the 9th book in this incredible series, and this is Payton and Kaitlyn’s journey. Payton left his hometown 7-year-ago, and since he arrived at the ranch he has been treated as family, and like he belonged there. Kaitlyn has a huge personality, and she and Payton are best friends. Watching everyone get married and have families, which Kaitlyn wants, she decides to take things into her own hands to have a baby. This is a well written friends / lovers’ romance, with heartbreak, family, friendships, emotions, challenges, undeniable chemistry, and love, which leads to a compelling page turner.
I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; and this is my voluntary and honest review.

Listen….I loved looooooved Kane and I thought yup, he’s the one. That’s my fave. But I would be lying if I said that I didn’t love Payton just as much.
I just couldn’t help but want to give him the biggest hug in the prologue and then I loved him meeting Kaitlyn. And I just knew I was going to love these two.
Friends to lovers and pregnancy trope? Sign me up.
Fave line:
“Hopefully, our daughter gets my sense of humor.”
“If she’s anything like you, she already has me wrapped around her finger.”
“Like a true Bishop.”
The ending was so beautiful and just revisiting this family again was my favorite. I absolutely loved it.

Payton agrees to become Kaitlyn's baby daddy because he doesn't want her using a sperm bank to have her dream of becoming a mom come true.. But can they leave it as just a "business deal" without their feelings becoming involved?
Payton's been in love with Kaitlyn since he first met her.. They're friendship is everything to him and he doesn't ever want to risk it!
I loved Payton and Kaitlyn's story!! I laughed, I cried, and laughed some more!! What an amazing way for ending the series even if it's so bittersweet to see the Circle B Ranch series end! Kennedy Fox did amazing with this series as they always do!

Seducing the Cowboy by Kennedy Fox
(5/5⭐️)
Book Nine in the Circle B ranch series but can be read as a standalone. I can’t believe I’ve already read nine of these! I loved this series so much. The Bishops just are so hilarious and their shenanigans just keep coming. While I’m sad this series is coming to an end this book was an excellent conclusion to this generation. Peyton and Kaitlyn were absolutely perfect! Peytons dedication to her was complete goals. This was the perfect mix of real life struggles and relationship goals.
I can not wait for the next.

I have a lot of catching up to do! This is my first read in the Circle B Ranch series, and is apparently the last book. I absolutely loved it. It was perfect as a standalone read, but I can see that it would be even better knowing the other characters and their stories, as this family is fabulous. Kaitlyn and Payton were gorgeous - best friends, but their chemistry was off the charts, and the steam they created was delicious. The authors wrote a rich tapestry of everyday life on the ranch, and perfectly captured the dreams, yearnings and frustrations of the main characters, and ultimately their beautiful and joyous HEA.
