This is all I want in an MM cowboy romance!!
I really enjoyed this book, and I'm SO excited for the rest of this series! I have a feeling it's going to be a good one! I've been wanting to read a book by A. M. Arthur for the longest time now, so when I saw it up for request, I jumped at the opportunity and I'm so glad I did! I'm going to be reading ay more from this author soon.
This book is a second chance, slow burn, cowboy romance with a good amount of steam and lots of cute moments! Oh, and did I mention it has the best friend's brother trope?? So good!
Out on January 25, 2022!

left a lot of loose ends and the sexual assault towards the end was unnecessary. also suffers from the favorite trope of people who aren’t gay men writing gay men: “my partner is closeted! how dare he hurt me in this way!” a la legally blonde.
other than that thought a fun quick read with great sex scenes and hot characters. despite my reservations i’ll definitely read more from this author.

the author repeats themselves a lot, as if they have not reread their own book

In His Fresh Start Cowboy A.M. Arthur delivers an emotional slow burn second chance romance that is poignant and deep.
