❤️🔥 DIRTY talk
Hollis is book two in the Moore Men series, and while you can read them out of order, I highly recommend reading Finn too, because why miss out on more small-town sweetness and swoon?
This book follows Ford, a grumpy, recently divorced firefighter captain who’s questioning the path his life has taken. Enter Hollis: a charming, dirty-talking cowboy and cattle rancher with a bit of a playboy reputation. Their story kicks off with some flirty exchanges on a dating app and quickly ignites into a spicy, friends-with-benefits arrangement they try (and fail) to keep under wraps in their small town.
What I loved:
🔥 Top-tier dirty talk
🤠 Cowboy hotness
🏡 Found family vibes
💔 Emotional depth mixed with heat
👨🚒 A slightly grumpy firefighter who deserves all the love
The chemistry between Hollis and Ford? Emasculate. The spice? Scorching. The emotional growth and connection? Absolutely there. Ashley James crafts characters you feel. They’re messy, loveable, and so real.
If you’re craving a story with heart, heat, and a cowboy who knows exactly what to say, Hollis needs to be on your TBR ASAP.
