I started reading this from Libby, but then I got kindle unlimited and started reading it through that. I know some people were more invested towards the middle to end part of the book, but I was the opposite. I loved like the first 200-300 pages of the book, but once the romance picked up I started losing interest. I think I just wasn’t really into Rhodes as a character, and I didn’t feel like he had much chemistry with Ora. The story wasn’t bad, I just didn’t feel invested in the characters and their romance, but I still enjoyed the story nonetheless.

I absolutely enjoyed it. These are the kind of romance books I'm craving now. I need romance and a HEA, but I want more tougher subjects. I also loooove the slow burn. I love smut, but having a romance book with the slow burn and just surrounded by everything else is perfect too.
Highly recommend.

This felt more like women's fiction than romance? There was a lot about the fmc's journey and the romance felt kind of secondary

I really liked this book!! I honestly think I should have waited after the wall of Winnipeg and me to pick this one up because most the time I was comparing it to that.

This book puts the slow in slow burn. Mariana Zapata has cemented herself for all things slow-burn and sometimes, that's exactly what you are in the mood for. What kept me reading despite the slow pace is the absolute dreamboat that is the MMC, Rhodes. It's so easy to imagine yourself as the FMC and go on this relaxing romance on the rocky mountains of Colorado (with some spice to boot).
