Publisher's summary

From USA Today bestselling author Pippa Grant comes a rollicking romantic comedy about a single mom and a grumpy math teacher tackling their differences on a Wyoming ranch.

I knew fixing up my life with a fresh start on the hobby ranch I inherited in Hell’s Bells, Wyoming, would come with challenges. Things like snow. Wildlife. Local gossip about why my daughter and I are here.

But the biggest challenge?

My surly new tenant.

He’s like a bear. Fascinating from a distance, but don’t get too close, or he’ll bite.

His personality should be a good thing. I have no need of a new man in my life. But he’s not only my tenant; he’s also my daughter’s math teacher and soccer coach. I keep running into him. He keeps thinking I need to be saved.

Maybe I do, but here’s what I don’t expect: he’s a fixer-upper in need of saving too.

And I might be the only woman for the job.

Hell’s Bells, help me.

Critic reviews

“Forgiveness and acceptance are at the heart of this humorous late coming-of-age romance, which argues valiantly that happy endings don’t require perfection, just love.”Publishers Weekly

So cute!

This book is the perfect little romcom to end out my summer. I really enjoyed the storyline and the character development was on point. There is a good mix of teenage drama with adult romance and a couple of interesting animals thrown in;)

Love Pippa Grant

The book seemed to drag on in certain spots I almost lost interest in listening but picked up and ended really well. There were some funny parts but not as many as I would have thought.

Original storyline

Original, clever storyline.
Well developed characters (main and secondary).
Two of my favorite narrators/performers.
Not too short, not too long.
One of my best reads this year.

I loved this book. Two damaged souls finding each other and falling in love? Yes please! The story was masterfully written and narrated. Absolutely worth the listen.

I’m so glad he changed

That man had a terrible attitude. He didn’t do that lady any good. I’m so glad he got his head out of his ass. He was so mean. I’m also glad she grew a spine. It was a very cute story

It was okay

It was okay but nothing more. Connection between characters felt superficial and based on sexual chemistry. Main focus was on resign teenager. It was enjoyable to listen but didn’t rock my socks of.
