📌 After the scandalous Rolling Stone cover, Avery Fox has no choice but to take refuge at her grandmother's ranch, whom she has never met.

📌 The Red Fox Ranch is Lucas Iron Eyes' home and he's not going to let pop princess Avery Fox ruin the peace of his home.

I love romantic comedies, but I love western romcoms even more, and this one in particular is amazing. It has a lot of Hannah Montana the Movie vibes, those super cute Disney movie vibes.

As for the larger family drama between Avery and her family, I like that it doesn't take up the entire story, so we can see how Avery deals with her grandmother, whom she never met, and develops that connection to the Muscogee nation she's longed for from the beginning, discovering who the real Avery Fox is.

I was surprised by Lucas's story. Normally, romantic comedies have some drama, but they don't touch on topics like addiction, so I really liked that this story was part of Lucas, giving him that background and letting you know more about his life and how he arrived at the Red Fox ranch when he was only 16 years old.

I was so hooked that when I was reaching the final twists, I couldn't believe I was finishing it. I needed more of Lucas and Avery, of their beautiful love story, but unfortunately everything must come to an end.

📌After finishing college, Colin Hartrick returns to his hometown with his family, determined to win back the love of his life, Scarlett.

📌After five long years, Scarlett Wallace is a totally different person and has completely moved on from her ex, at least until Colin comes back into her life and everything falls apart.

The story intercuts the present with the past, so you have their perspective as teenagers and the perspectives of the present as adults. It's a really easy way to situate yourself to know what happened between them and what kind of relationship they had, in order to understand their decisions in the present.

Autism is a big part of this story since Colin is autistic. I love that this is a positive part of the story. It's added information to help us understand Colin, and it's also covered throughout the story, giving us more insight into how different situations and emotions affect people with autism, since mental health is a big factor throughout the series.

Colin and Scarlett are adorable. Scarlett is a shining light; she never stops talking when she's nervous or in general, and Colin loves listening to her and likes her because she explains absolutely everything without omitting any details, which helps him with his anxiety. Colin, on the other hand, is more logical and loves to say different things depending on the situation or make up jokes, something Scarlett loves. He also reminds her of things she often forgets. They complement each other wonderfully.

It's not all a pretty walk, even though they're both adorable. It's a very beautiful but heartbreaking book at the same time. Colin made a mistake five years ago and it devastated Scarlett. Therefore, there's a lot of pain and mistrust throughout the story. With all this added in, it's also very spicy, so there's a bit of everything in this book.

📌Piper Hartrick only has one public enemy: Leo Diaz. Every time Piper had a happy moment, Diaz was there to ruin it all; at least that's how she remembers it.

📌Leo Diaz isn't subtle or discreet. He tells you straight up what bothers him, which is why he can't help but tell Piper everything he thinks about her at every moment of his life.

📌Their hatred for each other is undeniable, but what happens when Leo needs Piper's help with his college project? Can they work together without sparks flying?

Piper and Leo have hated each other since high school, and of course, when they also meet in college, things get crazy.

I love that we have a book about Piper and get to see her perspective on the events of the previous book.

Although the book initially focuses on Piper, I really like that we see much more of Leo than Piper. We already know Piper's family and surroundings, so it's interesting to delve deeper into Leo's life and have the romance centered on his territory, which is the theater, rather than focusing solely on Piper's surroundings, which we already know. This way, we get to know Leo better as a character, beyond his feelings and interactions with Piper.

It's a spicy book, but those aspects don't cover the whole story, and in fact, they are key points for the plot and the development of the characters and their relationships.

You understand why they hate each other so much, and why they clash so much since they are very opposite poles. They are those relationships where their opposites make them complement each other because what is weak in one, in the other is a main part of their personality, so they complement each other.
