I read this book in one sitting. I could NOT put it down. The first couple pages were a bit confusing, but once I got into it, it became clearer. I liked the cowboys, the small-town feel, the romance, and all the suspense. There was a lot of that.
Kinsley has always been in love with Cooper, but Ashton, Cooper’s little brother, has always had feelings for Kinsley. That added a lot of tension and angst in the book. For someone who was “in love” with someone, Ashton sure had a way of showing it (getting “favors” from girls where Kinsley could see). I had to shake my head at that. There were a lot of factors to the book that made it a nonstop read. There was a bit too much movement, in a way I thought would be significant later. It wasn’t. That was my only complaint. Other than that, there is seriously so much is going on. It's addicting! And there was also a lot of sweet romance that ever girl dreams about.

Excerpt:
Suddenly, the shed door burst open with a whoosh of humid air. On the other side was none other than the gorgeous Cooper O’Loughlin. “Ryan, I fuckin’ warned you once to stay the hell away from Kinsley. What the fuck?” My jaw fell open at his words. Why would he have told Ryan to stay away from me? Ryan was Ashton’s best friend and I considered him a friend as well. “You need to chill, bro,” Ryan said nonchalantly then handed the bottle back to me. “Kins asked if I wanted to do shots with her. It’s not like we’re in here fuckin’ or something.” “Get the hell outta here,” Cooper seethed, his cheeks were crimson and splotchy. What the hell is his problem? “Later, Kins.” Ryan shouldered past the wall that was Cooper, muttering something indiscernible the whole way. “Seriously?” I raised my brow. “What was that?” “How wise do you think it is to get drunk with him?” “Oh, get the hell outta here with that shit, Cooper. I’ve known Ryan almost as long as I’ve known you. He’s never tried anything.” My voice got louder as I went, and my arms flailed wildly. “And what the hell would it matter to you anyway if I was in here screwing Ryan?! You’ve made it perfectly clear you aren’t interested.” By the end, I was pointing my finger and yelling at him. Cooper didn’t back down. He didn’t apologize. He yelled back. “When did I ever say I wasn’t interested?!” I stood there, rooted to the floor, my whole world rocked to the core by one question. Before I could even answer him, he came at me from across the small room like a heat-seeking missile. Directed straight at me. “Fuck it.” His strong hand slid along my jaw and roughly cupped the back of my neck at the same time his right arm came around my waist and yanked me to him. Almost losing my balance, I crashed into his hard chest and found myself transfixed by his eyes. While I saw familiarity, I also saw a smoldering passion that had never been there before. It was spellbinding. “I never said I didn’t want you.”
