Paige is used to bad luck. Between losing family and all her money starting back from the bottom is just where she's at. Which is why when country superstar Cash Colton notices and actively pursues her, she just can't believe it. For the past year Cash has lost the music in his head but one look in Paige's eyes and he's found his muse again. Can Cash convince her that his interest lies in more than just his chance at boosting his career? Will Paige finally realize that something is going right in her life? A really cute, funny, sweet story about two lost souls finding just the right connection. Great read!

This book reminds me of a Hallmark movie! I enjoyed the plot, it’s was something different and fresh for me. I agree with others when they said it felt wordy at times. Wasn’t a huge fan of the heroine’s back and forth I love you but my pride is getting in my way things. Still, great light ready especially for the Christmas season!

Christmas just wouldn’t be complete without a trip back to Twilight, Texas and a chance to see who’ll fall prey to the magic of the Matchmaker Cookies. As always, Lori Wilde delivered a sweet and touching yet flirty romance full of down home charm and lovely sentiments.
I somehow forget exactly how much I enjoy Lori Wilde’s romances and how often they make me smile until I pick a new one up and get totally swept away again. Cash and Paige’s story was definitely a fun one, kind of an opposites attract theme with him being an attention-loving country musician and her a rather private person. Read More

Cover: 2/5 (It's okay/meh) Not really anything to say about it. It's just there.
Story: 3/5 stars. Trying out the CAWPILE way of reviewing introduced to me by Book Roast.
Characters: 6
Atmosphere: 8
Writing Style: 6
Plot: 5
Intrigue/Interest: 6
Logic: 7
Enjoyment: 4
Total Score: 6 -- converts to a 3 star review, which sounds about right.
So this story was easy enough to read, but I didn't love it by the time I was done. It was insta love and trope-y, but that doesn't usually bother me. I can't even pinpoint what it is, I just didn't mesh with this book. I found the angst factor to be a bit overwhelming. I did like the main character, Cash, but was just blah about his female lead, Paige. I have not read the other books from this Twilight, Texas companion series, but I could see that there were a lot of cameos from other book characters. I'm not sure if I would like her other books, but I may try one if I see it. It landed in my "what the f*ck" shelf because the sex scenes in this book were written weird. And not even in a fun way. haha

Not only does this book seem to have the absolute worst case of insta love I've ever witnessed, it's also full of unnecessary metaphors and bland characters. I gave this a shot because the plot sounded interesting enough even if I thought from the title it wouldn't be for me. Sometimes it's better to judge a book by its title it seems.

This was a light, fun read that was just what I needed at the moment. I was a little disappointed with the trope of the girl in crisis who just can't stop herself from helping everyone around her and can't accept help herself. But what is a romance novel but an exploration of tropes? It was joyful enough that I might check out the other Twilight, Texas books!
