Love takes a special kind of courage . . .
Captain Sterling Garlington has faced down enemy fire without losing his nerve. But after a life-altering injury derails his military career, the former US marine is suddenly taking his marching orders from a sexy, edgy beauty at the Elk Heights Ranch. Even more amazing, equine therapist Harper Matthews makes him want to not only embrace life again—but give in to the attraction simmering between them.
Her love of horses is Harper’s magic bullet—her way of healing the painful past. And in the wounded soldier she recognizes a kindred spirit. Part of her wants to bolt, yet at the same time Sterling is drawing her closer. Maybe it’s his courage. Or his mega-watt smile. Or both. Either way, she’ll make a cowboy out of the wary war hero yet. It’s like getting back on a horse. They’ll just have to learn to trust each other—and be willing to open their hearts . . .
“Obsessed. That’s how I felt while reading this book, like every page was better than the previous. Just try to put this down, I dare you.”

Summary
The Cowgirl Meets Her Match by Kristin Vayden is part of the Elk Heights Ranch by Kristin Vayden
The author seems to create a realistic character in Sterling. He is trying to deal with finding his identity after his medical discharge from the military and his leg injury. I have not read the other book in the series so I did not have an opinion about him going into the book. You will find out that he had previously dated one of the other characters.
Both of the characters have their weaknesses and are dealing with issues from the past that still impact them. Kristin wrote a book to show them working to overcome them as the struggle that it is.
They are both very spunky characters. I have not read the other books so i was not familiar with the other characters. It seems like they may have had their own books, but this one also stands on its own.
