A Texas Matchmaker by Andy Adams audiobook.

Genre: romance

On the brush-country ranch of Las Palomas in southern Texas, young Tom Quirk thinks he has signed on for honest work with cattle, horses, and open range. Instead, he finds himself apprenticed to a legend: Lance 'Uncle Lance' Lovelace, a tough, sixty-something ranchero, old pioneer, and three-time husband who has made it his personal business to steer lonely men toward marriage as surely as he steers a herd across unforgiving country. As Tom learns the demanding rhythms of ranch life - roundups, long rides, and the hard logic of the cattle business - he also becomes Uncle Lance's trusted interpreter and go-between, carrying messages, reading motives, and smoothing the way when bashful vaqueros and ranch hands fall headlong into love. Before long, Tom is drawn into the same web of courtship, aiming his own hopes at the quietly compelling Esther McLeod while trying to keep his dignity intact under Uncle Lance's sharp eye and sharper advice. Part frontier portrait and part wry comedy of manners, A Texas Matchmaker blends romance with the authentic textures of early Texas ranching and the complicated human need for belonging.
