Second chance love story with a lot of feisty-ness and drama thrown in. I'm a sucker for a good tom-boy and Quinn fit the bill perfectly. I didn't love all of the story but overall was an enjoyable read. I've read book 1 and was committed to the series. Looking forward to book 3...

What a fun book to read. In this second book of the series, we pick up with the story of Quinn and Tate who had a romantic relationship during their childhood summers. For reasons unknown to Quinn, Tate disappeared and never communicated with her. When he returns to town, he makes it his mission to win her back and explain why he stayed away all those years. I highly recommend these books.

I really enjoyed the first book of this series and thought the sassy younger sister Quinn would have a great story. I was a little disappointed. Like other readers, this plot felt very similar to the plot of book 1 (and ultimately of book 3 as well). While the Davis boys stole the show in books 1 and 3 of this series, Quinn and her man failed to do so in this book. The plot was good, but I didn't fall in love with either character or go on thinking about the plot for days after I finished reading it. In fact, as I write this review, I cannot remember the name of the main male character. The humor in this plot line saved it and made it a 4-star read for me.

The writing style is not working for me; it's a bit wordy. Sorry but I couldn't finish this book.

I loved this book, the character development, the story was captivating, It was well worth the read!

3.5 stars 

After reading Lost Rider, I was interested in Maverick’s two siblings. Kiss My Boots focuses on the youngest sibling and only girl Quinn. This was a nice second chance love story. Quinn has always kept guys on a leash after her true love left town. Now years later, Tate has come back and sets his sight on Quinn. Will these two reconnect or is their love lost? I enjoyed seeing the push and pull in the beginning and how their feelings haven’t changed. But when they got it right, it was wonderful. Quinn and Tate were the right combination. I liked seeing the two of them together. The banter, the interactions, and the moments were good. Seeing how their relationship progressed as the story went was nice. I also enjoyed the glimpses of the past that we got-it showed how deep their connection was. Now this wasn’t just a story about love, there is a key component of the series that will continue to show up. I liked how Quinn handled it and Tate was there for her throughout. I loved the relationship between Quinn and her brothers-Clayton and Maverick, together no matter what-and also her best friend Leighton. Overall I enjoyed this pleasant read. I can’t wait for Clayton’s book!

4.5-5 Stars

I am absolutely loving Harper Sloan's Coming Home Series. Kiss My Boots was the perfect follow up to Lost Rider.
It was impossible not to fall in love with Quinn in the first book. Her wit and no-nonsense attitude endeared her to me. I was excited to read her story. Quinn is no stranger to heartache, abandoned by her mother, raised by a ruthless and uncaring father, and left by the only man she's ever loved. Her brothers, her best friend, and her shop are what's important to her now.
Tate Montgomery has made a huge mistake and now he's going to do whatever it takes to fix it. Finally in a place to right past wrongs, Tate travels back to Texas and back to the woman who still owns his heart.
What happens when the past shows up at your door? Do you run away from it, or right towards it?
It was easy to get pulled into this story. Sloan always creates such complex characters. The way they develop and unfold for us makes it impossible not to connect with them. I enjoyed how open both Quinn and Tate were. They knew what they wanted and went for it. We didn't have to spend the whole book dealing with back and forth and mind games. On their own, these characters were fabulous. Together, they were even better!
Sloan surrounds our couple with a strong support system. Quinn's brothers and her closest friend, Leighton, play a large role throughout the book. The dynamics between all of these characters adds so much to the story.
The deep storyline was sweet, sexy, and quite emotional at times. I enjoyed the laughs as well as the tears and everything in between. I am eagerly awaiting Clay's book, I have a feeling it's going to be the most intense.

This was too much like the first book for me. Harper Sloan is a master with words and creates a beautiful picture. I just wish there had been some variation and unpredictability with this story. It's a good book but not great. It's definitely steamy and if you haven't read the first book then you'd probably really enjoy this one. I just expected more from this book and didn't get it.

Kiss My Boots is the second novel in Harper Sloan’s Coming Home series. Quinn is the baby in the Davis family who is a bad ass mechanic in her family’s garage who isn’t afraid to speak her mind. While with all outward appearances she shows endless strength, no one knows the heartbreak she suffered from the hands on one man. Tate and Quinn’s relationship was a sweet puppy love until Tate up and left with no explanation. Quinn has endless prof that men aren’t worth all the pain they cause, so when Tate finally shows up back in Pine Oak she isn’t looking to repeat the mistake of falling for the unreliable man again. Tate is persistent in his quest of getting back the one he left behind. Tate must prove that his love for Quinn was what kept him from her and that he is no longer going to let anything prevent him from her heart, including Quinn herself. The connection between Quinn and Tate was intense and easy to feel from the very being of this novel. I loved reading Quinn and Tate re-falling in love. Kiss My Boots is a heart melting novel that was hard to put down and an easy 5 star read.

I have been waiting to read Quinn's book, and let me say it did not disappoint! I love second chance romance books, and I loved seeing Tate knock Quinn on her knees a few times. There are many unspoken things between Quinn and Tate and not everything is as it appears.

Kiss My Boots by Harper Sloan is book two in the Coming Home series and is just as enjoyable as the first book in this series. I adore everything cowboy, so picking up this book, was a no-brainer. 

Quinn doesn’t need any cowboys in her life or her heart, but Tate Montgomery is about to change her mind. It won’t be easy for Tate, but Quinn is worth it. I loved Quinn. She was one heck of a heroine. Tate, took me a bit to like. Him leaving Quinn like he did is a hard pill to swallow, but that’s life. And there was a reason why he left the way he did. It wasn’t like he stopped caring for Quinn, quite the opposite, actually. The chemistry was there for this couple and if you enjoy second chance romances, I would highly recommend this one.

Kiss My Boots is the second book in the incredible Coming Home series by bestselling author Harper Sloan. This is an amazing story about a second chance romance that will definitely steal your heart! With complex characters you can't help but love, hilarious banter, crazy antics, drama, and lots of twists and turns, this emotional roller-coaster of a story will capture you right from the start, and not let go until long after the last word is read. A fantastic book, and a definite must read series. 

Tate Montgomery met the girl who stole his heart years ago, but due to his father's malicious ways, he was forced into a life that his parents had planned out for him, and he had no choice but to let her go. As soon as he was certain that his father had no more control, he was determined to find out if they still had a chance at what was stolen from them.

Quinn Davis is the youngest of the Davis siblings, and although her brothers did everything they could to protect her, she still feels the abandonment of their mother, the cruelty of their father, and the broken heart that has never mended when Tate disappeared from her life without a word. Running their automotive shop, the last thing she ever expected was for the man who stole her heart to return to town, and want her to restore his grandfather's old truck. She's definitely not prepared for the chemistry between them to be just as strong as it was the last time they saw one another. 

Not one to take things lying down, Quinn demands an explanation of why he left without a word, but is she really prepared to hear the truth of what his father had done? Will it be enough for her to forgive him? Is she willing to see if there's still something special between them? Have they changed too much over the last several years, and can only end up as friends? Will either be able to get the HEA that they want, deserve, and that was stolen from them? You're going to have to read this to find out, but you won't be disappointed! 

If you haven't read this series, I highly suggest that you start from the beginning. Each can be read as a stand alone, but you will get so much more out of the series by reading them in order. You'll find stories that will bring out a wide range of emotions, be able to learn about each couple, the horrific childhood the Davis siblings survived, and the dynamics between them all. This is one series that you certainly won't want to miss! 

I strongly recommend this book, series, and exceptional author. 

I have voluntarily reviewed this complimentary copy provided by the publisher via NetGalley.

A nice simple read. Intense romance, great characters and brilliantly written.

quinn davis might be short and sassy and takes no prisoners as the majority owner of davis auto works and lead mechanic, but she's hiding some serious heartbreak in her past. nine years ago tate montgomery left for college, just at the end of a summer where they admitted their feelings for each other and slept together, and he disappeared. his phone was disconnected. he never came back. it was as if he'd dropped off the face of the earth. with no word, no notice, and no closure.

and suddenly he's coming home. and in kiss my boots, quinn's first reaction to that news is to let him know he can kiss her boots. but when she learns the truth behind the choices he made. she realizes there was another side to the story. and as much as their separation hurt her. he really was trying to do the right thing.

and now they have a real chance at love. in the years they've been apart they've grown up, they've changed. but one still holds true. they are still as much in love with each other now as they were then. tate has always known that quinn is it for him. she just needs a little time to believe that all her dreams are coming true. that when tate says he loves her, he means it and he's going to stay.

because the truth is, all she's ever wanted was someone to stay for her. and this is why his abandonment crushed her all those years ago. and even though it's not entirely his fault, she needs some time to let that sink in.

but when it does, she knows he means it. that this time it's quinn and tate forever.

Star Rating: 4 stars

Finally...I have wanted Quinns story for what feels like forever.

Ahh..little hell-raiser! I just love the shit out of her and have my own Quinn in my life as well as what she has with Leigh.

Tate and Quinn are explosive! I had my fingers crossed and uncrossed throughout this whole book because I wasn't sure where it was going to lead but then BAM I'm hit with the worda that I read in Book 1.

Running from a pull that could potentially be life changing for the better is hard to resist and for Quinn she wants to stay away from it, from the hurt but damn it, it feels good to want it too. 

So much history goes along with Tate and Quinn that it is so relatable to most, I know it is with me.

The Davis family is one I love dearly and I cannot wait for Clays book next because the big brother has me intrigued and I want more.

A romance story featuring cowboys and serious goosebumps. I love the idea of trying at a chance for a second attempt be it peace, romance or a place to call home. I loved Quinn i felt a great affinity to her and her attitude to men, but i must admit even i would find it hard to not fall for a man like Tate Montgomery. Well worth a read, as cowboys are not normally my cup of tea but this one certainly kept me reading his story.

Kiss My Boots had a pretty strong start for me. I love women doing unconventional jobs and the fact that Quinn is a mechanic was something that had me looking forward to this book.
Unfortunately once the couple got together it turned into another long winded, repetitive profession of love. I think the majority of the book was him talking to himself about how much he loved her/they were meant to be/its only been her-- him talking to her about those same things. Then her doing the same thing. 
That's one of my personal reader peeves and one of the few ways to get a DNF from me. I almost did not finish this, and actually started the next book in the series. The next book gave me a "spoiler" that made me want to see how the end of this book played out so I picked it up again before continuing on. I'm glad I picked it back up because it did get better at the end.

Sloan never fails to grab hold of my heart and keep it enthralled to the very last page. Kiss My Boots is the perfect example of why I love her books so much. I am a huge sucker for a second chance romance and Sloan did it perfectly! 
Tate is all kinds of swoony. After being forced to stay away for 9 years, he is determined to get back what he lost. Now that he is back in town for good, nothing will keep him from the only woman he has ever loved. 
Quinn is my kind of girl. Strong, sassy, and not afraid to say what she thinks, I could totally hang out with her! 
I am so in love with this series! I can't wait to get my hands on the next one!

It felt like it took me ages to finish this book!
KISS MY BOOTS was simply more of the same from the previous installment. In fact, it was almost identical to the first book's storyline. The Hero and Heroine fell in love when they were just wee children and then at about the time they're both eighteen, the Hero, Tate, leaves Quinn behind without any explanations and is gone for nearly ten years. Quinn has never gotten over that heartbreak and has also not allowed any man to get close enough to mean anything to her.

Now, Tate is back in town about nine years from the day he left and he's taken over his grandfather's medical practice and home. His mission is clear and there isn't anything that will stand in his way of winning back the heart of the only woman who ever truly owned his!

The plot was predictable and the pace of the story was slow, which made it hard to enjoy but by the time I was nearing the end it did pick up a bit and I must admit there were some yummy steamy scenes and one in a gynecologist exam room that I will surely not forget anytime soon.

I did love Tate! If it weren't for him I probably would not have ended up liking this book at all. Hoping that the last book will be the one to knock me off my boots!! LOL


Here are my overall ratings on the book:

Hero: 4.5
Heroine: 3
Plot: 3
Angst: 2
Steam: 5
Chemistry Between Hero & Heroine: 5

I'm going to start this review with two of the most used phrases in this book "Kiss my boots" and "hell-raiser".  Seriously, these two phrases were mentioned at least 20 times EACH!!

"Kiss my Boots" is the second installment in the Coming Home Series and it follows Quinn, the baby sister in the Davis clan.  If you read book one then you know that Quinn was Leigh's best friend and now, her future sister-in-law. Quinn and Tate were childhood sweethearts until Tate left one summer nine years ago and never returned.  All of Quinn's attempt to reach out to him were not successful and this broke Quinn's young heart. Now Quinn is a "hell raiser" as everyone calls her and she is also the best mechanic in town.  Finally after nine years apart, Tate makes his grand return to Pine Oaks and his first mission is to get back the woman who he has loved for as long as he can remember.

That is pretty much all that I have to say about the plot because nothing really happens. I wanted Tate to grovel more than he did in this story and I think that with nine years gone and the heart break that ensued, it should not have been so easy.  Now I am not looking for the hero to grovel for the entire book, but what I am looking for is for a hero to grovel for at least half of it so the make-up can be awesome. That is one of the major issues in this story.  There is no angst or intensity and there is entirely too much monologue.  It took so long for Tate and Quinn to come face-to-face and it pulled me out of the story.  

I was expecting a really exciting story with Quinn because she was a great side character in book one.  But in her own story, she played second fiddle and she did not shine like I expected her too.  Tate was an okay hero, I guess, and he was sweet, but he was not interesting to me. 


I have minor spoilers from book one, so be warned… Maverick and Leigh's wedding was heart touching and sweet and it added a nice touch of emotion.  The twist at the end served no purpose at all and their relationship was just "blah". I gave this story 3 stars because the first half is actually enjoyable and the sex scenes are hot to say the least, but the repetitive use of those two phrases and the monologue really dragged this story in to snooze ville.  Another thing that I liked about this story was the Texas drawl that was thrown around.  I do love my cowboys, but Tate was not a cowboy at all.  He was a doctor, so that kinda pulled me away too.  

Now the next installment will be about Clay, a real cowboy, and the eldest sibling of the Davis Clan.  I am really hoping that the author pulls back on the monologue and introduce some dialogue. Just saying…..
