Publisher's summary

Alex Bishop is your typical cowboy. Charming, sexy, and wears a panty-melting smirk. Working on the ranch helped build his solid eight-pack and smoking body. He's every girl's wet fantasy and he knows it too. Alex doesn't follow the rules of your typical playboy bachelor. After wining and dining his dates and giving them the best night of their lives, he always sends flowers and calls the next day - even if it's to say, let's just be friends.

His mama taught him manners after all and his Southern blood knows how to be a gentleman. Still, that isn't enough to tame the wildest of the Bishop brothers. River Lancaster has finally met the man of her dreams. Too bad after six months of romantic bliss, she finds out he's married. With a broken heart and blind rage, she books herself a ticket to Key West, Florida. Tired of cheaters and liars, she's set on escaping to forget he ever existed. Who needs a man when there's an all-you-can-drink margarita bar, anyway?

That's what she tells herself until she bumps into the right guy who can make all those bad memories disappear. Even if it's only temporarily. Two weeks on the beach is what they both need. No strings attached, no expectations, no broken hearts. Too bad the universe has other plans - one that'll change the entire course of their lives in just nine short months.

Stellar Performance

The male narrator! *fans face* Well, let's just say I could listen to him all day...and night!

I enjoyed the story very much. I will definitely be reading more in this series.

Good story, Great narration

The story about River and Alex is solid. It’s well done but it may have benefited from a little bit more excitement or conflict/resolution.
The narration was fabulous…as you would expect from Savannah and Aiden. They are stars.
On to book 2!

Swooning for the Cowboy

Let me start with high praise for Aiden Snow's performance: holy cow, he rocked. His southern drawl had me wiping drool from my chin and fanning myself awkwardly. 'Nuf said.

As for the story of Alex and River: it was sweet, funny, sultry, ridiculous, crazy, raucous, silly, and hot, hot, hot. Match: meet flame! I loved their flirtiness, their friendship, and their passion. Alex was full of southern gentlemanly charm and beautiful things to say, but he could also keep up with River's outrageous banter as well. They were just a really fun couple with a great story. Combined with River's no-filter best friend and the entire Bishop family, the cast of characters was broad and rich.

Readers can expect adult language and themes, along with pretty graphic love scenes. This is definitely an adult read. It's full of cowboy swagger & city girl swoon, along with tons of heart and some over the top LOLs along the way. It's also got a really great and imaginative "scavenger hunt" as well.

All around GREAT

Loved this story. This book kept my interest from start to finish! Loved the narration also. Im from Louisiana so a lot of southern narration are over done with way too much country slang this was very well done.

Fun slice of life

So, for a slice of life story, 11 hours was a bit too drawn out. But honestly, I liked Alex (he made some mistakes but who doesn't) and I liked River, who overall was really sweet. Not much happened- Alex was a redeemed rake after he met River on vacation, there's a surprise baby. And now they need to learn to live their new normal. Very little angst, which I really liked but the story kind of just ambled on. So, I wish it was shorter but the story itself was well written and sweet.

I listened to the audiobook and that was part of the reason I just couldn't put the book down. I love Savannah Peachwood- ssuch a sweet voice that was perfect for River. Her male voice was a little forced but still I had no trouble getting into the story. Aiden Snow, with his deep, Texas voice, was perfect. I could listen to him read anything but since this was also a fun book to boot, it was a fantastic way to spend my time!

Taming Him

This is a cute, adorable, and sweet story. Alex and River have amazing chemistry, their banter is cute, and the friendship they develop is beautiful. Although this was a long book, it was well written, and it flowed perfectly. I enjoyed this heartwarming story immensely.
Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood are outstanding like always. They both know exactly how to bring the characters to life.

Low Angst Surprise Pregnancy

Ohhh this was such a FUN surprise pregnancy romance!! It was low angst and totally fit my mood.
Alex is the sweetest hero and I loved his reaction when River tells him she is pregnant.
I also enjoyed the other Bishop brothers and can't wait to know their stories.

Also, the narrators were perfect! The southern accents were done just right! And loved the spicy times!

Full of sexy southern charm!

4 STARS

Alex Bishop is a true cowboy full of southern charm and sex appeal. He is hard working and is passionate about his family’s ranch. He is known as the playboy of the family and has no plans on settling down anytime soon. He and his best friend plan a spring break vacation down to Florida Keys and on that vacation he meets River. Neither are looking for anything long term and embark on a night of passion. Their chemistry was explosive and off the charts. A night of passion turns into so much more and a beautiful love story unfolds. River is also hard working. She is a PICU nurse who is looking for a break and a fun time in the Keys. Some parts of the storyline I found to be predictable. A big part of the storyline I saw coming right from the beginning and that left me wanting a bit more. I adored the little of the Bishop family we learn about in the Checkmate Series. I loved the family dynamic amongst and getting to know them more. They are very close and are always looking out for one another. I cannot wait for the next Bishop brother to fall. The ending has me wanting to read Needing Him right away.

Aiden Snow really puts on the southern charm in his narration of Alex and combined with Savannah Peachwood’s sweet voice they made the perfect pairing to tell this story.
