Wyatt Rivers is the perfect no-strings hookup—a cowboy Casanova who rocks a Stetson, looks smokin’ hot in his Wranglers, and never rests his head on the same pillow twice.
He’s exactly what I’m looking for. If only Wyatt wasn’t also my best friend…
I’m back in my hometown of Hartsville, Texas, for a few months while I wait for my dream job to start thousands of miles away. While I’m here, I hope to end an epic dry spell in the bedroom, preferably with a local cowboy. If the rumors are true, they really do ride harder and stay on longer.
Wyatt and I have been best friends since second grade, and I’ve been in love with him for almost as long. But he’s as wild and untamed as a colt that can’t be broken—not to mention, totally out of my league with his good looks and heartbreaker reputation.
Then I get to thinking: since Wyatt is such an expert, why doesn’t he teach me the ropes of how to find a hookup? He begrudgingly agrees, and a little fake flirting suddenly leads to fake dating, which leads to real kissing, which leads to real…well, everything else.
And let me just say, the rumors are absolutely true.
Now, I want so badly to be Wyatt’s last rodeo. But I’m leaving town, and even if I wasn’t, I’m not sure Wyatt would ever change his playboy ways.
I know cowboys can’t be tamed. Apparently, neither can hearts…
An epic friends to lovers happily ever after! I adored getting to know all of the Rivers brothers when I dived headfirst into Cash recently, so jumping almost straight into Wyatt’s book was exciting. It started out as a huge disconnect though if you read directly from the ending of Cash into Wyatt. At the end of Cash, there’s a mini cliffhanger that is not picked up at that spot in Wyatt and time and happenings are severely adjusted. It put a huge damper on my enjoyment of this book because it was obvious things had moved forward but we hadn’t yet addressed what happened. Regardless, I did enjoy Wyatt and Sally together and their turn around the dancefloor of love was sweet. I’m looking forward to Sawyer’s story next!
This book drug somewhat compared to Cash, but some of that could have been from my unhappiness with the change of timing and let down of finding out what happened with John B., etc. I loved the family and the setting and even the main characters, I just wasn’t quite as hooked as previously. Great characters, fun loving setting and supporting cast and lots of heart and warmth.
