Book club book-
Favourite line: ‘I guess you can be a doctor and still be stupid’ 

I love the way she told off rob over the phone, favourite part hands down. 

I think Summer was written as a bit of a shallow character. It didn’t mention her ‘passion’ for the gym until at the end of the book. I would’ve loved to have read when she first went to the gym at the start more descriptions about how it was her happy place or just more meaningful than it was. I thought her friendship with Willa was a bit forgotten and only brought up when convenient. Just a bit shallow as a person and a woman, which always sucks. 
It had repetitive phrases throughout; ‘rubbed my/her lips together’ could’ve been a very fun drinking game. It was used 4 times in one chapter alone. 
The texting was often unnecessary for the plot and broke up the flow of events that were happening/the writing. I get it could’ve helped with the change of perspective but I think it maybe could’ve been done differently. 
The random pop culture references that were sometimes used incorrectly; ‘I wish I was like thanos and could snap my fingers and get rid of everyone else in here’ you’d only be getting rid of half, what are we even talking about hahahah 
You’re also telling me cowboys from a small town watched, remembered and used a reference from the hunger games unironically? Idk 
Also the use of ‘im an empath’ and ‘not today Satan’ unironically killed me. 


If I could give it a 2.5 I would, the cowboy thing was fun and their build up was really fun too.

I enjoyed reading this book however I felt it was a little slow paced to begin with and then became very fast paced towards the end. I also feel that the conflict was resolved very quickly and could have been done slightly better, but I do love a happy ending so overall I enjoyed it

"You wear the hat, you ride the cowboy."
Honestly looking forward to the other books in the series (except for the Cade and Jasper ones because they really grate me the wrong way as characters).

OH MY GOOOOOSH. I'm officially in my cowboy era 😍 

I absolutely devoured this. I bought the second book when I was only a quarter of the way through and I'm sure I'll do the same with the third.

Our firecracker heroine is perfect. I want to be her friend. She doesn't take shit for herself or those around her. And I love that she has brown eyes. They deserve main character status, too!

The Eaton family is amazing and I'm so happy to contine their stories. Rhett is the perfect misunderstood hero and I adored him. 

I will definitely be reading more Elsie Silver books in the future!
