I really enjoyed this. In fact, I couldnโt put it down! Nash and Cece were a swoon-worthy couple that held the reins to my heart the entire novel. The dirty talk is intense, the peen nickname had me sniggering, and there is A LOT of spicy scenes.
What I loved about this book is that it felt so COUNTRY. I was ready to chuck a hat and boots on, ask Alexa to play Shania Twain, and hoedown! Small town found family cowboys is a blend of romance tropes I can see never missing. Especially as this one really hit!
What I didnโt enjoy so much was that the smut was a bit repetitive, I needed a bit more plot to accompany the conversations on grief, the descriptive sex, and the *pretends to be whistling and not eyeing each other* behaviour in front of the found family. I also didnโt enjoy the way some female side characters were talked about by the main characters, Iโm too much of a girls supporting girls type and they felt like quintessential demonized women. It didnโt affect the rating as Iโm hoping theyโll either get character arcs or better context in this new romance series.
