Publisher's summary

Emily Haskins has it all. She’s a marketer for one of New York City’s leading advertising firms, but she’s a workaholic, so when her free-spirited mother begs her to take time off to accompany her to Mountain Ridge Resort in Virginia, Emily reluctantly agrees.

However, when they get there, her mom’s boyfriend shows up, and Emily starts to see that this trip was really a way for her mom to get a free vacay for her and her latest fling. Disgruntled, Emily’s mother-daughter bonding vacay is suddenly a solo affair.

Emily has booked two weeks off for rest and relaxation, though, so she’s determined to try to make the best of the situation. She’s going to put herself out there and try things she’s never done before—like horseback riding.

But when the charming cowboy of a riding instructor sets his sights on her, she might get more of a ride than she bargained for.

I Liked It

When Emily was persuaded by her mother to go on a vacation with her to Mountain Ridge Resort she had no idea that her life was about to take an unexpected turn or that her mother planned for her latest lover to arrive and pretend it was just a coincidence. Because the resort is full and he can't get a room so her mother invites him to stay with them saying she's sure Emily won't mind.

Their planned vacation is for two weeks and Emily doesn't want to be a third wheel so decides to make the best of things on her own. Determined to have some fun and try new things she decides to try horseback riding. Cole is assigned to teach her what she needs to know, he's not only a knowledgeable cowboy but he's handsome and sexy too. There is an instant attraction between them and I just loved the interactions they share. Their story is fun, and fast-moving and their chemistry is palpable, I especially loved it when they were riding double, and she innocently told him she was ready to get off now, and he growled under his breath “Me too, darlin", I had tears of laughter running down my cheeks.

I so wanted these two to be more than a holiday fling, to find out if they are and if they get a HEA you will have to listen to this one yourself as I'm not telling.

The narration is by Mackenzie Berry, who did a great job bringing the characters to life and setting the mood, she certainly added to my enjoyment of this story.

Very entertaining

It's a insta love with a real characters: Cole works giving riding lessons and was giving business cards in a resort trying to get more costumers. He is not a billionaire, only a hard worker who runs a business with his sister. Em went to college with a scholarship since her mom acts like a horny teenager all the time. She as a job in a advertising agency. The only drama and issues is with her mother, she allowed her mother used her in the begining and that's the only part that I didn't liked, but at the end she stopped, in a way.
Mackenzie did a terrific job narrating the story. In overall, I enjoyed the book.

Holiday Ride Mountain Ridge Resort

This is a Mountain Ridge Resort story for Emily Haskins and Cole. Okay so not a fan of Emily's mother I do not care if she was acting out that woman needs to grow up. I loved how Emily meets Cole and may act a little mean, but that just wins Cole over so much that he stands up for Emily and claims her for his own and will not let the city girl go no matter where they live. I loved this sweet love story with it's wonderful ending.

Steamy Cowboy Story!!

A fun steamy read with tons of chemistry between Cole and Emily! I loved their interactions together! It all starts with a riding lesson...
Emily goes on vacation with her mom and her mom ditches her for her new boytoy. I wasn't a big fan of the mom's character and how Emily let her walk all over her. At least Cole helps out!
This story has chemistry, steam, a bit of an age-gap, and dirty cowboy talk!

I liked the narrator! She did a good just with voicing the characters and giving life to the words she read.

Very enjoyable

This was a really quick, cute little story about a city girl on vacation and the country boy who falls for her. It was simple, straightforward and uncomplicated, perfect as a bite-sized romance in a busy day.

Cole and Emily

A sweet love story about an independent woman and her alpha cowboy! Short and adorable, with a dash of steam!

Save a Horse Ride Cole 🔥

Mother daughter trip gone wrong or is it perfectly right? Emily's Mom let her down yet again, but a horseback riding lesson turns into happily ever after. Emily and Cole are a sweet and spicy couple. Narrator was great! Enjoyed this😊
