I know I am SO LATE on this train but choo choo here I am. I started this series at my best friend's request and let me tell you- I get it. I mean I think its enough to say that this book made me want to give whipped cream a chance after hating it for 24 years.

For real though, Summer is my GIRL (unfortunately for both of us, we're wayy to similar and it hurts). Rhett is just the right amount of wild, protective, fun-loving, and jealous. I really liked the ending in the way that the decisions made were never one person convincing the other, or someone sacrificing themselves for the other but rather the personal growth to realize their individual priorities and boundaries and how to make them work together. I didn't however love the initial third act conflict and the way it was handled (it was definitely in character but just not something I thought was fair or healthy in general). 

Also, Harvey Eaton is the MAN.

this was NOT an enemies to lovers romance. i have no idea why it’s marked as one, since it’s obviously a grumpy-sunshine romance.

the overall plot was questionable because why does a 30+ year old man need a babysitter? i personally think that was strange. are men that inept? i’m going to assume yes. though her becoming a babysitter led to us meeting some amazing side characters and my favorite scenes: the eaton family dinners.

summer and rhett were cute and the will-they-won’t-they dance they went through was so good to watch unfold. from the beginning their banter made me laughing so much and their chemistry was incredible, especially in the bedroom. their romance isn’t big and loud and dramatic, it’s cute and fluffy. though i do have to say that the third act breakup could’ve been avoided if! they! just! had! talked! they did overcome the shit that came their way with time and acknowledging their differences and shortcomings.

some things that occurred in the story pissed me the fuck off. her stepmother, half-sister, and predatory doctor/ex (who then became her brother-in-law!) deserved the worse but none of them faced any consequences for how horribly they treated summer.

i’m usually not a big stickler when it comes to writing but i couldn’t overlook some of the dialogue and how it did not flow like dialogue, which made it difficult to get through the characters’ conversations. but the rest of the writing was good.

all in all, despite there being nothing special about this book, it still intrigued me enough to read the next one because i grew found of the eaton brothers.

i think i now understand why people are downbad for cowboys… they’re hot. save a bull, ride a cowboy, indeed.

Hot damn! This book is just incredible. The only reason why I didn't put 5 stars it's because I liked Heartless more. Rhett Eaton! The man you are. This man is just *sigh**swoon*. I don't know how to explain it so I won't. He is just perfect. Summer, she is fierce, and so confident, and her growth is so good. I loved how we got to see how Summer was able to face her issues and be able to trust Rhett. Their relationship is also so good! I love the fact that they are able to support each other and it felt so natural and just right. They were meant to be and nobody can tell me otherwise. The fact that even though she was confident in herself she still struggled a lot and he was able to show her that she was worth of love and being freaking worshipped like the queen she is. The book is just so good and I don't know what else I can say. This book started my cowboy romance era. 

Memorable Quotes
  •  “She and I really are binary stars, stuck in each other’s orbit, drawn together by forces we can’t see or understand—but that we can feel.” 
  •  “What the hell is the cowboy hat rule? You wear the hat, you ride the cowboy.” 
  •  “You were out there this whole time, and now I know you exist, and I can never go back. Wouldn’t want to if I could.” 
  •  “Princess, you look like you were made for me."
    "I feel like I was made for you. 
  •  “Tell me what to do, Summer. Tell me, and I’ll do it. Was I unclear before? Because I want to be crystal clear now. I love you. I loved you the moment you walked into that boardroom and smirked at me like you knew something I didn’t. It bothered me, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Wanting to know what you know. I fixated on it, but I think I was just fixated on you.” 
  •  “He is nothing like any man I’ve been with. And that’s a blessing.
