adventurous hopeful lighthearted tense

3.5

An adventurous second chance at love, with a wildly unrealistic backstory. 

Why would Leo leave messages with Duke at the ranch if Lily had a mobile phone? And someone who loves animals and respects the land the way Lily claims to would not be likely to throw a mobile phone in a fresh water source (a river in this case) and poison the water with degrading battery components.

Oh my goodness, I loved this. There were a couple of unexpected twists and turns that made this book even better. I couldn’t put this book down! Most of the characters are lovable, it’s a little bit steamy, and it’s a little bit adventurous. This is definitely one that I would read again.

This book wasn't really what I was expecting or what I'd hoped for. I went to Christina Lauren for a comfortable, easy romance, but this one was more adventurous and less romance-centered. I just never really cared for the characters in the way I wanted to, and the plot required just a little too much suspension of disbelief. My library loan expired and I didn't care to place another hold to finish something I had no motivation to pick up.

I struggled mostly with the rough balance of romance and action. It felt like each story was on its own plot and they weren't intertwined fully.
