There was a ton of family drama in this book. I was mostly here for it? I'm a little iffy on the estranged father's redemption arc but I think it was mostly portrayed realistically, if not in a more fulfilling manner. 

It's kind of weird that it wasn't weird that the FMC's estranged father's was more a father to the MMC than he'd ever been to FMC? IDK like I feel like there should've been some more drama there but I guess the characters were being mature about it.

The pacing at the end felt rushed.

🌶️ 3/5 The chemistry between the MCs was good and there weren't a ton of steamy scenes but the ones we get are pretty 🔥 vanilla.

🎧 The narrators (dual POV) both did a good job.

Tate has been living in California, far from the family who didn’t care to fight for her when her parents divorced, until the author she works for sends her to a ranch to take photos for her new book. Once she hears the name of the ranch she tries to back out but they won’t allow it, but what are the chances she would get sent to her father’s family ranch? While there she meets Henry, the super hot ranch hand who lives in the cabin right across from hers. She is just at the ranch for a few weeks, so she definitely should not start anything with him. Definitely should not. 

I really enjoy Tarah Dewitt’s writing she knows the perfect way to make a story sexy and complex while still having fun and humor.  The last line of the epilogue had be dying laughing.

I am revisiting this review, and I had to look back at the synopsis to remember what this book was. If you are looking for country romance, this will hit the spot. Particularly, if you are looking for something with messy family connections and some drama.

I got over the sister’s high pitched voice done by the narrator. I’m glad I did, because this was a great book. The speech at the end is one to read again.

Ooof, I found this one tough. It was really trying to hit home with the emotions, but it just never got there. Cons: the pacing was inconsistent; insta-love; Tait called her estranged father "dad" suddenly without enough character/relationship development to justify it; Tait was not like other girls; the spicy scenes came across really awkward imo. Pros: it was short.

Oh WOW I loved this one. I laughed, I cried, I swooned, I cheered. So many lines hit me right in the gut in the best way. 

Some minor grammatical issues, typos, and confusing language, but none of that took away even a bit from how much I enjoyed reading this and how much I adored the characters. I will definitely be reading more by this author!
