Country Nights by Winter Renshaw

Author:  Winter Renshaw
Release Date:  June 25, 2017

What a charming little story.!  My attention was caught instantly from the first page and how the heroine broke up wither her ex-boyfriend. Bad chick style.!! It showed how strong she was and I was glad to see her find love again.  This book automatically gets points for being about a cowboy and the cover is absolutely hot.  Also, for all of my Fifty Shades of Grey  fans, there is a line from the book in this story, but make no mistake, River is no Christian. ;)

River and Leighton was an adventure for sure and I was there for it.  Leighton is a victim of an internet scam and she shows up at River's house under the assumption that she will rent her former childhood home for 60 days to reflect on her life.  Instead of arriving with a warm welcome, she is faced with the hot and broody River, who is happy to inform her that she was scammed out of $5000.  With nowhere else to go, she decides to sleep in her car.  River sees her asleep in her car and decides to offer her a job at his ranch in exchange for free room and board.  As time goes on, their relationship blooms into a hot adventure.

I honestly was not expecting such as emotional journey with this book.  I found the blurb interesting enough and the cover was awesome, so I took a chance on it and I am glad that I did. River was a loner for sure, but as I read on I understood why.  His character was a winner for me in this book and his character had depth and a great character arc.  I liked Leighton as well, but her character was pretty much a straight line.  I loved their chemistry and it was hilarious how they came together. 

The only flaw that I have with this book is the appearance of Leighton's ex because it added absolutely nothing to the story.  Another element that I loved about the is book was the relationship between River and his brother. Let me add that his brother is a real creep and you will feel it in your bones when he comes in the scene.

Would I recommend this jewel?  Of course.!!!  I loved River and he was hot and this book had some interesting side characters.  What sweet, mysterious ride.!!
