5 Enormous Stars!

This story take us to a small town in Montana where gossip, sweet teas and ranch owners are the plate of the day.
Here we have Caroline (Cara), a school teacher that decides to take a tutoring job during the summer. The kid she is tutoring is Seth, a trouble 12 years old boy whose mother left him in his grandparent’s ranch and his father is current in Afghanistan with the army, so he’s being taking care off by his uncle until his father comes back.
Taking care of the ranch and off miles of land is easy for Josh is easy. Taking care of a teenager? Not so much.
So when Cara arrives and immediately get on the right foot with his nephew, is like a breath of fresh air. They both knew each other since they were kids but nothing ever happened between them, but now, both adults and extremely attracted for each other’s, things are starting to get (even) hotter under the big sky of Montana.

This books is the personification of the saying “don’t judge a book by its cover”. For some time I ignored this book because I really HATE this cover. Only after reading a review and realizing it was from Kristen Proby (Yes, I’m that unfocused.), decided to give it a try. Mostly because I love her “With Me In Seattle” Series. I’m happy I did it because this was a great book and this is a definitely a series to keep on reading.

Rating: 5 Stars.
Storyline: Slightly predicable in some moments, but very sweet and addictive. You will not be able to out this book down.
Writing Style: First person. Dual POV. The amazing writing that Kristen Proby got us used to. Sweet, romantic with funny quirks and pretty hot moments.
Character Development: Josh was sexy, sweet and a pretty likable alpha-male even in the few moments he pissed me off. Surprisingly Cara was very good too. She was feisty, sweet and I love how she didn’t became a hero-obsessed heroine. And as ever with this author, we have a group of amazing supportive characters that make us wish time would run faster just so we can read their books!
Steam: Hot.
