Holding the Reins

Silver Pines Ranch Series, Book 1

De: Paisley Hope

Narrado por: Brooke Daniels, Thomas Oakley

Take a deep breath and let go of the reins.

Cecilia "CeCe" Ashby is finally escaping the toxic relationship that has consumed her entire adult life. She's returning to her hometown of Laurel Creek, Kentucky, and her family's equestrian ranch, unsure of what the future holds.

Nash Carter, the newly retired superstar of the Dallas Stars, is Laurel Creek's hometown hero, local business owner, and notorious bachelor. He's also the unofficial fourth sibling in the Ashby clan. It's been years since his days of tormenting CeCe with her older brothers Wade and Cole. So, when CeCe needs a job, he feels drawn to help her.

Nash can't seem to take his eyes off of his best friend's sister, and it seems she's been staring right back, not without animosity left over from his childish teasing back in the day. Despite their initial reluctance, the fire between them ignites and it isn't long before they jump into the flames.

In this steamy cowboy romance, a woman returns to her family's ranch after a broken engagement and finds herself falling for her brother's best friend. The first novel in the Silver Pines Ranch series.

Sweet and spicy

I just love Cece and Nash. The narration was excellent. This boom is sweet and spicy with the best witty banter ever. Very entertaining. Great listen and highly recommend.

NASH & CECE ❤️

This was my first Paisley Hope novel and it WILL NOT be my last! I loved the setting of this story, in rural KY… I loved the dynamic between Cece and Nash… their past, overcoming their fears of making a future together, and finally getting their HEA… Nash is a gruff, retired NHL hockey player and also a “part time cowboy.” Does it get any better than that?! Except his mouth maybe… 😮‍💨 I listened to this one and narration was chef’s kiss! 🤌🏻💋 This one is a definite must read/listen!

Small town cowboy romance, what’s not to love!!?

Sweet & spicy. Nash is the standard! I loved Ceces strong personality & thought the story was good for a debut! Would have loved to hear this one in a duet style narration. This was my first time listening to Thomas Oakley and really enjoyed his voice for Nash!

Love!Love!

Could not put it down and when I had to I was quick to pick it back up

A heartfelt story that kept me hooked

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started this audiobook, but I ended up really enjoying the mix of ranch life, relationships, and personal growth. The setting felt vivid, and I could almost picture the wide-open spaces as the story unfolded. What stood out to me most were the characters—they felt real, with struggles and emotions I could relate to. The narration brought the story to life and made it easy to sink into. By the end, I was already curious about what would happen in the next book. A great listen if you enjoy heartfelt, character-driven stories.
