I was really looking forward to Unforgiven because I LOVED the first book in this series, so naturally I was going to love this one too, right? Wrong.I was really looking forward to Unforgiven because I LOVED the first book in this series, so naturally I was going to love this one too, right? Wrong. I liked Kody’s character in book one, but I wasn’t desperate for her story, and Hill seemed alright. I was expecting all of the emotion and how real and raw book one was to be present in Unforgiven. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope, so I was excited. Instead what I got was Kody is an immature brat who had the impulse control of a 13 year old, and Hill was just there. Not only did the characters have zero chemistry, and I mean zero, but it felt like a second chance trope. Kody was insufferable most of the time and Hill was incredibly boring.
Not even the mystery in the story could liven things up because I just didn’t care. The one and only true bright spot in this whole story was Shot. Now him I want to know more about. The epilogue was better than the entire book. ...more

Logan was the perfect combination of hot alphahole, and Seth the perfect combination of sweet alpha. I didn’t think I would like Georgia, but she tuned out to be my favorite. Smart, sassy, with the right amount of vulnerability, but not whiny. I can’t wait to see what happens next. ...more

It took what felt like forever to finish this book, I just couldn’t connect with the characters. Maybe that’s because it really wasn’t what I was lookIt took what felt like forever to finish this book, I just couldn’t connect with the characters. Maybe that’s because it really wasn’t what I was looking for. After reading so many of Lexi Blake’s Bliss series I was looking for a M/M/F story to break everything up. After doing so research and discovering that this book was what I was looking for, and I needed to start this series because it crosses over with the Bliss and possibly the Masters and Mercenary series it was a shoe in. But, this wasn’t what I was looking for at all. It’s not so much that it was bad, it was just a little blah. Sam was sweet and I believed his feelings for Abby, but Jack was a bit emotionless and even by the last page, I didn’t believe his relationship with Abby. ...more

While yes, it was about James, Noah, and Holly, it was also a bit of a second chance non romance storyline between James and Noah. While it was well written, it had a lot of the typical second chance trope storyline, and second chance is one of my least favorite tropes. Overall it was pretty good, but not my favorite. ...more

I liked him, but I didI really enjoyed A Cowboy Like You, and I wasn’t sure I was going to because Danny wasn’t that interesting to me in past books. I liked him, but I didn’t love him. Boy did he show me the error of my ways. Danny and Skyler were perfect for each other. Their story was a bit of an insta love with a twist, they went to high school together and both had a crush and didn’t know. It was a little outrageous to believe that those feeling not only stayed for 20 some years with no contact, but that they were that strong, it worked for the story though. You get to see plenty of past characters, and I’m very curious as to whose book is going to be next. ...more

He was such a jerk the entire book that I couldn’t even remotely see what Callie saw in him. Thankfully for as rude as Nate was, Zane was sweet. I already don’t like second chance romance, but with jerk characters like Nate Wright, they become even worse.
Bliss as a town with all of it’s unique people managed to charm me again, so there was a bright spot in this book. ...more

TherI loved Riding Hard, which is no surprise because I loved the first book in the series too. But Mark was so much more than I thought he would be. There was a depth to him, an internal struggle that not many authors can bring to life so realistically. Lauren Landish did that. I loved his quiet demeanor, it’s always the quiet ones who feel so much.
Katelyn was perfect for Mark in every way, even if he didn’t want to accept that at first. Not only their journey together, but Katelyn’s journey into a colorful world, and Mark’s journey to self acceptance, was beautiful. ...more
One Tough Cowboy has the potential to be really good story. I was very interested in the plot at the beginning, and then in the middle the plot just dOne Tough Cowboy has the potential to be really good story. I was very interested in the plot at the beginning, and then in the middle the plot just died in favor of sex. What? Not only was there a lot of sex, which normally wouldn’t be a problem, but each scene was repetitive, so it got boring. Not only was the sex boring after a while, it was the most ridiculous unrealistic sex I have ever read in a book. We are talking, they have sex, he finishes, and before he even pulls out he’s hard again and they have sex again, he finishes, and again doesn’t get to pull out and he’s hard again and they have sex a third time. This happens several times, no, not happening, ever. Then there is the unrealistic timing of sex, in the middle of a murder investigation, nah let’s have sex instead. Just got in a shoot out, sounds good for sexy time. Supposed to be on a steak out, let’s have sex not once, but twice, because you know the bad guys are just going to wait to do bad things until after you are done. But the most unrealistic part was something I’m not going to into detail about, but let’s just say that no woman be would be jumping into sex anytime soon, and here we have sex the same night. On top of the boring, unrealistic sex, there was Sam, she would of been a decent character but she is that girl, that girl that says “no” when she really means “yes”. Thankfully Hunter was written well enough that he stopped several times and made sure Sam wasn’t actually saying no. There is nothing sexy about rape, and having half of your sex scenes start with the woman saying no through the first half just becomes annoying, nothing sexy there.
Finally in the last couple of chapters the plot resurfaces, but then it’s a wham, bam, thank you mam, and it’s over. This story overall wasn’t bad, but it could of been so much more. ...more
I have to admit southern accents aren’t really my thing, but for Ten Smith I think I can go for it. I really didn’t think I would like Ten as much as I have to admit southern accents aren’t really my thing, but for Ten Smith I think I can go for it. I really didn’t think I would like Ten as much as I did. He was never really a character that I wanted to know more about. I can admit when I’m wrong, because I was wrong.
Faith was perfect for Ten. She was strong and smart.
I also loved the storyline in Master No. It wrapped up a story arc from the past few books, and started a new one.

I am not a skimmer while reading, but the story was just boring. I ended up skimming over 3/4 of the book. There was nothing about Harper or Chase that made me care about them apart, let alone together. ...more

You never know if it’s goinBuck Wild is my first book by Lauren Landish, and I’m always a little leery going into a new book from a new to me author. You never know if it’s going to be the best thing you ever read, or wonder how on earth someone approved to publish it. Thankfully Buck Wild was an amazing story.
James is a rodeo star home during the off season to help the family, and Sophie is a city girl who is an aspiring Vet in town to intern with the local Vet. Right from their first encounter together you can tell that James and Sophie’s chemistry is going to be off the charts, and that first impression doesn’t let you down. But there is more than just great chemistry. They are sweet and funny, with some very real emotion thrown in. Buck Wild was a fun story that had heart....more
I really love this series. Donna Grant has managed to find the perfect balance to bring out the most emotion in her characters all while not overpowerI really love this series. Donna Grant has managed to find the perfect balance to bring out the most emotion in her characters all while not overpowering and making it feel unrealistic.
My Favorite Cowboy finds us with Caleb, the youngest Harper sibling, and the one with the most trauma, and Audrey the local Vet, who has her own issues when it comes to relationships. When horses start becoming ill, Caleb and Audrey find themselves in a dangerous situation. I loved Caleb, he had that balance of bad ass alpha male, with just enough vulnerability underneath that you can’t help but fall a little for him. Not only did the relationship between Audrey and Caleb captivate me, but the mystery surrounding the horses kept me turning the pages. Easily a 5 star read and I certainly hope Donna Grant isn’t done with this series! ...more
