Training the Heart

Silver Pines Ranch Series, Book 2

De: Paisley Hope

Narrado por: Brooke Daniels, Thomas Oakley

In this steamy cowboy romance, a grumpy ranch owner and a sunny horse trainer must learn to work together—the second novel in the Silver Pines Ranch series.

Wade Ashby doesn't let anyone in. With the death of his father and his failed marriage, plus the weight of the family business on his shoulders, Wade has plenty to deal with. He thrives on being the one constant and steady thing in his family's life and on their ranch, Silver Pines.

Ivy Spencer knows two things for certain: Animals make better friends than people, and she can only count on herself. After a turbulent childhood and a string of bad luck since, Ivy is excited to start fresh at Silver Pines Ranch and live out her dream of training a racehorse en route to the Kentucky Derby.

Wade needs help on the ranch, but with two entirely different views on how to train his star horse, it makes absolutely no sense why he allows her to stay on. She's chaos, and he's control, but it doesn't take long for the levee to break and their passion to ignite.

Training the Heart

I really enjoyed this book and the way Paisley Hope tells stories. Looking forward to reading book three when it comes out.

Amazing

This was just perfection. The voice actors really brought this story to life and made it even better.

Loved it

If Paisley writes it I’m going to read it. Wade is one grumpy cowboy with a filthy mouth. I was here for every moment of it. Wade and Ivy had an undeniable connection and I loved their story. Also I love ivy is a audiobook girly and loved to read spicy romances. I can’t wait to jump into book 3.

Hot Brooding Cowboy

I absolutely adored this audiobook and the irresistible grumpy x sunshine dynamic between Wade and Ivy. Wade begins as guarded and reserved, while Ivy bursts onto the scene with unwavering determination and sharp wit, matching him at every turn. Watching them confront their pasts and ultimately surrender to their undeniable chemistry was incredibly satisfying. Brooke Daniels and Thomas Oakley did a phenomenal job capturing both the tenderness and passion in their relationship, perfectly embodying their dynamic. If a brooding yet undeniably hot cowboy is your type, this is a must listen!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

Well this was fun! I was not expecting things to escalate so quickly, but I’m not one to complain. (Though I would have liked a tad more tension and yearning). I wanted to give Ivy a hug too though. I’d have gone with Wade to end her ex.

Spicy but tender

Spicy but tender, Wade shows his strength not only as a loving man, but as a protector, and a fighter as to what he believes in. Ivy is a strong, independent woman who doesn’t believe she needs protection, but the thing that needs protected most of all is her heart.

That final chapter 😮‍💨

If nothing else, just listen to the final epilogue. I need a good pallet cleanser after all these cowboys and southern accents.

This is EPIC…Ivy & Wade are EPIC!!!

This is my first 2025 read and I fear that other books will not meet the bar that this book just set for the year!
The story has the perfect amount of love care, mental health representation, grief representation, healthy communication, no third act breakup, and…the SPICE was SPICING 🔥🔥🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
The performances of the narrators is TOP tier and I binged this story in one day!
All I can say is…..MERCY

So good, I didn't want it to end!

Whew! Who doesn't love a gruff, grumpy, grunting cowboy with the most deliciously filthy mouth... sigh. So good. So, so good. And the irony of listening to a spicy audiobook involving a character who also loves spicy audio books was not lost on me. 10/10.

Omg

I will read anything Paisley writes! Omg I love Wade and Ivy!! I literally have no words besides hot and love! Go read this !! I cannot wait for the next book!
