Daddy West 😮‍💨 Elsie Silver did NOT disappoint with West and Skylar's story.

What to expect:
🧡 Small town romance
🧡 Horse trainer x country music star
🧡 Single dad
🧡 Friends to lovers
🧡 Cinnamon roll MMC
🧡 Found family
🧡 Forced proximity
🧡 BANTER & spice 

Elsie Silver is the queen of banter & tension—I will be kicking my feet & giggling and the characters haven't even touched. Her character chemistry is a 10/10 every single time, and I adore how she builds their relationships. 

Weston is a fantastic cinnamon roll MMC—from his protectiveness of those he loves to his potty mouth, I love this man. I also love how he supports Skylar. 

Skylar is the epitome of a child star, and Elsie makes that clear. It's what frustrates you about the character but also makes her journey to becoming a "normal" person charming. This character really grew on me, and I love that she had Cherry as her side kick. 

I read this book on KU and Audible, and I HIGHLY recommend the audiobook. The narrators did a phenomenal job bringing these characters to life.

 I will be counting down the days until Wild Side releases in March 2025.
