Game Over is the second book in the Oakwood Ranch series, but I hadn't read the first book and I found it completely accessible coming into the series here. It introduced the reader to the main family and hinted at the events of book one quite naturally.

Game Over focuses on Dylan, an ex NFL player who drunkenly buys 18 horses one night, and Izzy, the ranch hand who was included in the deal along with the horses! Izzy and her daughter Madison were the heart of this story and it's always amazing to see a single parent and their child find a partner and a family to love them. Game Over was a cute and easy read that I binged in one night. It has a few spicy scenes and a late third act breakup, but that seemed a bit inevitable based on the characters' journeys.

Disclaimer: I received an Advance Reader Copy from NetGalley but this is my voluntary and honest review.

Game Over is a heartfelt romance about Dylan, a former football player trying to figure out who he is after his career ends, and Izzy, a single mom working on the ranch where Dylan’s drunken horse purchase lands him. Their relationship is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers story filled with emotion, family bonds, and second chances. Izzy’s daughter quickly connects with Dylan, adding warmth to the story, while both characters work through pain and insecurities that make their journey feel real and relatable. A quick, engaging read that leaves you rooting for them.

I don't know where to start with this book! It is the perfect second book to the Oakwood ranch series! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! Another beautifully written, funny, romantic book written by Bella north! I had the privilege of arc reading the first book and was so excited to be able to read this book as well! This book had me hooked from the start! It had me giggling in parts and yelling at the book in others because of things the MMC Dylan and FMC Izzy did. Dylan is your typical grumpy ex-footballer/cowboy and Izzy is your typical country horse loving girl! both with there own issues but finally work them out towards the end. I love Maddison Izzy's daughter, she is funny and a very cheeky girl who knows what she wants and does everything she can to make it happen. I love how supportive Dylan's family is throughout the book and how we see Harper and Jake from the first book finally get married!
Thank you Bella north and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book!
