Leaving isn’t in my nature. But I’m not sure staying is in hers.

City girl with a deeply hidden desire for wide open spaces. Cowboy who is strung so tight he can’t see anything past work and keeping his family safe. Mollie and Cash start out at odds. Her absent-ish father leaves her pretty much everything in his will and Cash, his ranches foreman, what seems like nothing after he was promised everything. So they don’t get along because Cash is scared Mollie is going to destroy what he was banking on to be the rest of his and his families lives, but he judges her too soon.

I enjoyed this book because Mollie is not what everyone expects and she’s not even what she expects of herself. I love that she sort of finds herself and her own sort of peace in this story. Cash is just down bad for Mollie and while I thought he was a butthead at first I really grew to love him and the way he loves. ANYWAY. Definitely need to enjoy a tense slowburn to read this one, but the slow pays off with that burn. Lordy.

Ok that’s it. That’s the review.
