Love learning how to pet the horse and other thing relating to the first ride.

Received this review copy from the publisher and this is my honest opinion.… (más)

I would rate this book as just ok. I normally enjoy the work of both Eve Gaddy and Katherine Garbera, but this one just didn't quite do it for me. It started off to be promising - I liked the concept of being caught in a closet to shelter from a storm, and giving in to their feelings, but I found it rushed to an ending, without much buildup of plot. There also wasn't much character development on Ryder. I also felt that the inclusion of the reading of the will and the 4 brothers was not really part of the story other than that it was Ryder who was the lawyer reading the will. I get that this is a first book in a series, and a bit of an introduction to future characters, but I feel that they should have been integrated into the story better. This book is only 57 pages - almost more of a short story - I think it definitely could have been better if it were full novella length.… (más)
