Riding the High

Silver Pines Ranch Series, Book 3

De: Paisley Hope

Narrado por: Erin Mallon, Thomas Oakley

In the steamy third novel in the Silver Pines Ranch series, a newly appointed sheriff and a congressman's daughter must keep their impulsive Vegas nuptials hidden to protect their reputations—but what happens in Vegas rarely remains secret.

Her heart is wild. Only he can capture it.

When Cole Ashby is appointed Laurel Creek's interim sheriff, he is determined to prove himself as the best man for the job. A devoted single dad, his goal is to lay steady roots for his young daughter.

As the daughter of a Kentucky congressman, Ginger Danforth's life has always been about neat appearances. But inside, she's dying to break free and embrace the sense of adventure that runs through her veins.

During a wild weekend in Las Vegas, Ginger and Cole play a game of truth or dare and, after a few too many drinks, find themselves hitched in a neon-lit chapel. With no quick way out, they strike a deal: stay secretly married until Ginger's father is reelected and Cole lands the sheriff job permanently.

But as the pair are forced to spend an increasing amount of time in each other's company, sparks continue to fly, and their accidental marriage starts to feel dangerously real.

Until they forget they were ever pretending at all.

A New Favorite Friend's to Lovers Audiobook

[Riding the High]

OMG I love love LOVE Cole and Ginger!! Holding the Reins is one of my all-time favorite books so I was so excited to not only be back in Silver Pines, but to also finally get all the details on Cole and Ginger's "friendship". (yes those are air quotes) We all knew there had to be so much more to it than that and their story couldn't have been more perfect.

Paisley did such an amazing job writing their banter and chemistry. You could feel the way they care about each other in every single chapter. They had a romantic connection from the beginning but they are both fighting it so hard. I loved the slow burn that was built into them resisting and resisting until they finally give in. *chefs kiss*

I loved every second of this book!

I wanted to immersive read this one (reading with your eyes while listening to the audio) so I waited until the audio pub day and it was so worth it! The narration for this book was amazing and added to much to the experience. Erin Mallon and Thomas Oakley narrated and they were the most perfect Ginger and Cole. Loved this one!

Characters

Amazing writing of feelings characters story line . Believable realist true story true feelings. I am interested to read all the other stories from this author . Very easy to listen too . It did have sex scenes however I think are within the story line and realistic with modern times. I don’t have an insight on the American cowboy life but I love reading about small towns and high school sweethearts where things are more pure and there is a lot of tradition. It is nice to be immersed in a book with nature . I didn’t like much the whole alcohol appearance in every event and every scene . However if this is part of the culture and the story . It is ok .
