Publisher's Summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of the Cowboys and Angels series comes an intricate romance that asks the question: Can love heal the pain of the past?

Longing to forget the pain of his wife’s death, Brock Shaw has immersed himself in the one thing that lets him escape the guilt. Bull riding. But life on the road means leaving his young son at home with his parents. They want him to give up his career and be a father to his child, but Brock needs the adrenaline to get through each day…or so he thinks. 

Lincoln Pratt needs a fresh start. As a top interior designer in Atlanta, she has everything she could ever want, but she’s always at her father’s mercy. Something’s missing, and Lincoln knows she’ll only find it somewhere far away - like the rolling pastures of Hamilton, Montana, where she meets the irresistibly mysterious Brock. 

In Brock Shaw, Lincoln sees the part of her that’s missing. In Lincoln Pratt, Brock sees the part of himself he thought he’d lost. But the pain of his past binds him. Can he let himself love again?

Critic Reviews

“Funny, sassy, and steamy in all the right measure, Kelly Elliott hit it out of the park with Never Enough. Loved every second of this heartwarming story about love, loss, and starting over. Not to be missed.” (USA Today best-selling author, T. Gephart)

“Moving, playful, and oh-so-sexy…Excuse me while I swoon.” (New York Times best-selling author, Molly McAdams)

“…A swoon-worthy start to an incredible new series you don’t want to miss.” (Kaylee Ryan, New York Times best-selling author)

Haven’t gotten very far..

But the performances are horrible. I’m having a hard time following the story because the narrators talk too fast. There isn’t enough of a delineation between different character dialogues and general narration. It all runs together and the acting is poor. I’m probably spoiled by the likes of Andi Arndt and other such prodigious narrators, but even so this performance was woefully subpar.

3.5 ⭐️ VERY sweet book

This book is EXTREMELY sweet but it’s a nice, happy story. The characters could’ve used a bit more development and transitional development.
The plot and dialogue was a little too sweet...kind of like a high school girl’s daydream but it was a nice, happy story. I’ll definitely listen to the next in series.
The thing that very nearly ruined the entire thing was the horrible narration. Both narrators were just slightly better than amateur... but only slightly. They were both so overly dramatic and put so much emphasis on words and phrases in order to impress upon the listener the importance of the sentiment of the scene. Kind of like an infomercial host trying to sell you something you really don’t need. It took me out of the book completely. It was hard to finish the book because I practically sprained my eyeballs from all the eyerolls.
Also, the male’s female voices were cringeworthy. Same for the female’s male voices. Just awful.
I’ll listen to other books by this author because I enjoyed her story and dialogue...but only because the narrators are different. If they were the same, I wouldn’t even consider it.
It’s too bad these narrators were chosen for this. They’re terrible.

Summer Reading

I rarely read romances. My usual reads are histories, mysteries and thrillers. However after reading this romance I learned two things. one is the difference between rodeos and top professional bull riding. The other thing is that this 81 year old midwestern great-grandmother could have a thing for cowboys!

Never Enough

This is the first one I have listened to by this author and it will not be the last. Brock Shaw is a pro bull rider and has sold his home to an interior decorator and the first time he sees her he is lost. Good thing she feels the same. Lincoln has moved to Montana to start a new life and set down roots and after getting to know the little guy next door and now his dad she is lost. Will they be able to get past all the ghosts in his past? This was a great book, not much substance but a great story. I'm looking forward to the next book.

OK but…...

OK, spoiler alert before you read this review. I like the writing but why do her heroines always get pregnant using contraception. Seriously every single time. I’ve read countless books by her where they get pregnant while using condoms, birth control, or both. Why? Just why

Loved Brock and Lincoln

I loved Lincoln and Brock!
From Blaze and Lincoln's sweet interactions to Brock FINALLY giving in - I loved all of it.
The growth of Brock during this book was quite astounding.
There was plenty of banter, steam, and the cutest little boy in the history of books - seriously, that kid has swagger!

I felt that some of the narration fell a little flat in some areas, but overall, it was well presented.

Love it

I love the way this story pulls you in and leaves you wanting more. You really feel connected to the people in the book like you know them.

HOT PBR single dad!!

Kelly Elliot you have done it again. Beautifully narrated characters wrapped up in a storyline that I could not stop listening to and that will stay with me until the next book in the series is released. Brock Shaw, PBR Bull Rider, widower and father of a young boy matched up with Lincoln Pratt, interior designer and in a position to start over far away from her take over parents. What starts off as a hatred, turns into lust which then moves onto love but not without loads of hurdles and chemistry that leaps off the page. Perfect second change romance thrown together with a single dad. A perfect combination. Alexander Cendese was the perfect Brock!!

Beautiful story!

Loved it! When a book can make you cry emotional beautiful happy tears that overwhelms your heart then It's a wonderful book! Absolutely loved it! Can't wait to read the next book.

cowboys with surfer accents...

The story was fine but it was hard to listen to cowboys that had a surfer accents. To the point it would ruin the story line and borderline laughing at how ridiculous the narrator's female and Male sounded. Female voice reminded me of the pixie off of a child's movie my kids watch. Strange magic..

Performance very frustrating!!

This review is on performance of audible version only. I actually read the book first and I LOVE the story. I’ve got the audible by mistake as was ment to buy the second book (which btw the audible is better) of this series and ended up with both. Wanted to listen to it as I loved the book but cannot finish it. Both narrator are super fast and really not true to the tone of the book. When the characters clearly supposed to talk in the whisper or in the low voice narration is very loud and almost shouting. And the voices they pulling on are awful!!!
