I didn't enjoy this book. I didn't like the writing style and I felt it was very slow paced and it just did not hold my interest.

Here is a book that I have been looking forward to for a long time! Can't wait to read more by this author!

You will fall in love not only with the characters but with the small-town that Abbie Williams describes so beautifully. The sagebrush, beautiful sunsets, rock formations, log cabins, horses and of course country music. She paints a picture with words that puts you there. This is a standalone that you can read without reading the other ones. All though I would suggest that you read them all.

This was a good story it is the 6th book in the series and while it could be read as a standalone i think they are better read in order.I liked it and i am looking forward to seeing what happens in the next one,

The First Law of Love was so good. I could not put it down. There was just so much to the story, and the words just flowed off the pages, leaving me wanting more!

This book is the 6th in a series, and the first one I read. I think perhaps you need to read the previous books to get a feel for the characters and the style of writing. The book is definitely geared towards a 20-30 year-old readership with lots of steamy, angsty scenes. I think it lacks a bit in character development and motivations. I am a fan of romance novels, but I need a bit more in terms of character development in order to care about what happens to the characters. Maybe the previous 5 books would have provided this. I won't know, because I don't think I will read them.

Great romance with lots of sexual tension between the two main characters. There is also a great story line and mystery within. It ends on a cliffhanger so I'm anxious to read the next installment!

Tish and Case were frustrating! Someone needs to speak up! Tish was driven, and spunky, and very likable. Case was a little bit mysterious and very sweet. They were a perfect match, if only they could see if for themselves!

Wow. This book floored me. I wasn't expected the twists and turns that came along with the story line. I'm delighted to see that this is a series! and I'm ridiculously anxious to see where this story goes from here. The weaving of the past feelings wasn't something I was really feeling at first, but then it all started to fall together. Great read. Really enjoyed it.

This was a very pleasant story of Tish Gordon, a young woman on the fast track to being a lawyer at a top Chicago law firm. But first she must spend the summer in a small Montana town helping out a lawyer there fight a corporation that is seeking to buy up properties there to turn them into expensive vacation homes. The town is afraid that people will sell out because the town’s main employer has shut down and there aren’t many jobs to keep people in town. The town can’t survive with just wealthy vacationers coming in for a few weeks out of the year.

Tish enters eagerly into the battle and finds herself enjoying the small town life after the hectic years of law school. Plus there is the hunky cowboy/musician Case Spicer who met her years ago and told her that they were destined to be a forever couple. She’d rudely rejected him years ago, but now she completely falls for him.

The rest of the book is about the growing romance between Tish and Case, who seem to fall very quickly into a serious love affair, while Tish tries to help stave off the big, bad real estate corporation buying up property.

I enjoyed the story and Case. Tish seemed a bit dippy to me. First she was unnecessarily rude to Case when he bared his heart to her earlier. Now she meets him and she immediately becomes infatuated with him. I did like the way she fell into the community in this town and became a passionate advocate for the town’s interests. However, once the set-up was made, it dragged a bit in the middle, however. I think the book could have been just as good if it had been a bit shorter.

I was given a free ARC of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
