I was so excited to receive this ARC through NetGalley!

Paisley Hope has me in a clutch hold from book one! Wade and Ivey did not disappoint!

RATING: 5 STARS! (I mean, Duh!)

Beyond Wade being a grumpy, hot, tattooed, cowboy....
There’s so much to love about their story!

The best way I can figure to “unpack” all of it, is to just start listing all the things!

1. Okay, so first PAPA DEAN! I have a soft spot for ornery old men, especially farmer/ranchers! I always loveeee them as male supporting characters! Papa Dean no exception, hence the reason he got his own post on my socials! He is not afraid to say what he thinks, nor is he afraid to embarrass anyone on the farm and I love it! I think the reason Dean's character is does it so well and without a care, is that he knows he is right; and those he picks on knows he truly loves them. In my family, if they ain't picking on you, they don't love you. It's a love language, ya know?!

2) Wade is soooo alpha- protective, bossy, controlling. Yet he lets Ivey say and do her thing, when it comes to how she lives and loves and to horse training. He only steps in when she needs him. Otherwise, he’s behind her, supporting her and watching over her. He’s kind of giving Rip (Yellowstone!), and I’m absolutely here for that. Ooof, am I here for that!!!!

3) I have said it, and I’ll say it again- Paisley Hope is so talented!! So proud of her and the work she is putting out!

If you like:
- forced proximity
- boss+employee
- slightly grumpy cowboy (with tattoos!)
- and he cooks for her!
- found family
THIS IS FOR YOU!!

Thank you @netgalley and @authorpaisleyhope for the chance to arc!
