Thanks, Elsie and Must Love Audio for the ALC.

Emmett Bush, professional bull rider and bonafide one and done man, is not looking for love. But he desperately needs some serious cash to save the family farm. So, when his agent comes up with the cockamamie idea to star as the bachelor in a new reality show that will also rent the ranch as the location, he can’t exactly say no. It’s all fine until the location manager shows up – Julia Silva. The sister of his bullriding nemesis Theo Silva. Oh hell, she’s smart, sassy, gorgeous and off limits. They also share a past encounter that neither one has ever mentioned again. How has his life become this complicated?

Julia Silva has been incessantly warned about Emmett by her brother. Besides, she has vowed never to get involved with cowboys. But her past experience with Emmett and. now being around him all the time drastically changes the way she sees the cocky cowboy and soon they’re not only friendly but much more. 

And everything is against them: Theo, a non-fraternizing  clause and a producer straight out of hell. They were never meant to be. Until there was no option for them than be together…

Elsie, Elsie, Elsie… what is this sorcery? You always write the soonest heroes and the most amazing heroines! 

The audiobook is performed in live duet by Julia Goldani Telles (debut!!!!), Teddy Hamilton with a special appearance by Emma Wilder and it is, pardon the pun, a dream! Julia’s sweet , innocent, young and melodious voice gave us a sassy, vibrant Julia.  When Teddy turns on the swoon it can be downright dangerous and he cranked it up to 11! And what a treat to hear Emma’s talented voice peppered throughout the audiobook!

I loved the story! It’s a classic brother’s nemesis with the twist that the brother is beloved sunshine sunshine personified Theo Silva! 

What you get: a ‘playboy’ with green flags all over, a determined and sassy heroine, rivalry, a past noble gesture, villainous TV producers, very unusual omelets, boundaries disrespecting contests, hilarious grandparents, a crappy bio dad and grand gestures to warm your heart. 

I can’t wait to get back to Emerald Lake!
