Reviews with content warning for Bullying - Flawless

This was a pleasant surprise for me. I went in with low expectations, but was pleased by how much I enjoyed the chemistry and build up between Rhett and Summer. The story isn't exactly enemies to lovers, but they start the novel disliking (and judging) each other, and end it happily in love and planning their future.

The writing had its weak moments, and there was one particular plot point I expected to happen, and right as it's about to, Rhett just does something completely different. So that was a huge anticlimax. But apart from that, this was a compelling read. I found myself looking forward to picking it up, and kicking my feet when I realised we were getting "there's only one bed". I may have bought up the next three books in the series (they were on a deal, OK?), so we'll see how the next book turns out.

There was no resolution to Rhett’s media blunder which is a minus like did he get all his sponsors back? We will never know lol. I mean I know it doesn’t really matter now that he’s retired but would have nice round up. Also redoes are a no for me I can’t get behind the sport at all and would have rather had him be like a hockey player living in a country town

Holy heck it's steamy. Who knew that I would fall in love with a cowboy romance, and I need more immediately! This was almost a DNF for me, only because it took close to 200 pages to get to the action but once it does, it doesn't stop! Elsie Silver does an amazing job at creating a tasteful workplace romance.

The plot centers around Rhett Eaton professional bull rider with a bad reputation, in hopes of clearing his name (and brand deals) his agent assigns him a babysitter for the last leg of his tour, Summer Hamilton. The only issue? Summer just so happens to be the daughter of his agent. I loved the banter between the two main characters, Summer was so sassy and really stood her ground when it came to Rhett. Immediately the connection and banter between the two of them was spot on, not only that, Summer fit right in with the Eaton family.

What really brought it all together, was the fact that it wasn't just some fluffy romance. The fear of Rhett not knowing if he would be able to continue his legacy with his injuries really got to me, and hearing about Summer's history broke my heart. These two characters really needed each other, and it seems they both came into each others lives at the right moment.

This book is so good, a fun spicy read! This book is perfect for fans of small town Hallmark romances but make it spicy. I really enjoyed Rhett and Summer’s relationship, great banter than evolves into a sweet romance over time. I had a great time reading this one, would recommend!
