The Cowboys of California series began in 2020 with A Cowboy to Remember, a contemporary Western romance that brings a Black woman from Los Angeles to a California dude ranch following a personal crisis, where she falls for one of the Turner brothers. The series follows different women and different Turner family members across its three books.
Weatherspoon uses the ranch setting to write about community, family legacy, and the specific pleasure of a romance that unfolds in open country rather than a city. The books are warm and funny as well as romantic, and the protagonists are women who have their own lives and careers outside the love story.
If the Boot Fits (2020) and A Thorn in the Saddle (2021) complete the trilogy. Each is a standalone romance, though the Turner family presence across all three books gives the series continuity.
