Book Review: Training the Heart by Paisley Hope

by Krista

Synopsis

In this steamy cowboy romance, a grumpy ranch owner and a sunny horse trainer must learn to work together—the second novel in the Silver Pines Ranch series.

Wade Ashby doesn’t let anyone in. With the death of his father and his failed marriage, plus the weight of the family business on his shoulders, Wade has plenty to deal with. He thrives on being the one constant and steady thing in his family’s life and on their ranch, Silver Pines.

Ivy Spencer knows two things for Animals make better friends than people and she can only count on herself. After a turbulent childhood and a string of bad luck since, Ivy is excited to start fresh at Silver Pines Ranch and live out her dream of training a racehorse en route to the Kentucky Derby. Wade needs help on the ranch, but with two entirely different views on how to train his star horse, it makes absolutely no sense why he allows her to stay on. She’s chaos and he’s control, but it doesn’t take long for the levee to break and their passion to ignite.

Thoughts

Is it me, or did the author turn up the heat on book two of the Silver Pines Ranch series? This one was heavy on bedroom scenes, but Wade and Ivy did enjoy each other. That ending was a lot, haha! Steamy romance aside, this was another great cowboy romance story from Hope. I will definitely be continuing this series.

★★★★☆

Question

What color hat would you wear to the Kentucky Derby?
