Publisher's summary

A jaded single dad. A woman returning to her small-town roots. Neither was prepared for their paths to collide....

I should have known I was in trouble when I backed my old, beat-up truck into the shiny Range Rover.

The driver looked like a gorgeous fallen angel–one who’d been booted right out of paradise for being a giant prick.

Good thing I’ll never have to see him again.

Except when I show up for my new job to teach a little girl how to ride her horse, I find the same icy blue eyes glaring back at me.

Paisley Dae is completely reckless. She’s also the best trainer in this small town. And Evelyn gets the best.

Protecting the little girl is my one focus.

Only the sassy trainer in her cut-offs and cowgirl boots quickly gets under my skin. Distractions are dangerous, but she soon becomes everything I crave.

One reckless night of giving in, and Caleb and I spiral into a web of passion.

But when I begin to unravel the secrets hiding in this place, I find there is more riding on this job than I thought.

Caleb and Evelyn are worth any sacrifice–only Caleb has to decide what he will sacrifice for me....

Joe and Andi nailed it

have you ever read a book that hit all your buttons? this one hit mine. peep those tropes & tell me there is a book more caroline out there?

the tension was chef’s kiss and caleb was just so dang grumpy. 🥵 i binged this audio in a day because I couldn’t stop!

the narration by joe arden and andi arndt was absolutely PERFECTION. I’ve always been a big fan of And I’d but this dual narration of the two of them was just *chef’s kiss*

A beautifully written and touching romance.

A beautifully written and touching romance.

A.L. Jackson is a talented wordsmith and in my opinion her words are meant to be spoken and performed. Which is why I was so pleased to get an Audio Book version of this upcoming release. The performances enhance an already powerful story to even greater heights. Andi Arndt and Joe Arden are to be greatly commended for making this experience extra special.

Caleb needs a horse trainer to teach riding lessons to his little girl but he is so protective that Paisley is starting off on the wrong foot right away. Even when she has great references from his own family and members of the town. Luckily, Paisley takes no crap and while he is wary of the attraction she rises in him, he can't help but respect how she stands her ground. And when his little girl connects with her, he knows he'll have to suck it up and deal with her.

He definitely has some secrets and he's worried they may have followed him here. As he gets closer with Paisley he could be risking her too but he can't help himself. She's everything he needs as a balm to his soul.

Paisley & Caleb were sparking right from the start and what begins rough quickly grows into a fiery passion. Your kindle will be steaming through a good many scenes (some toys even make an appearance) but your heart will be touched too.

It has some great tropes but it doesn't just rely on those to get us through the story and I enjoyed that. As well as a great cast of side characters that I look forward to reading about soon.

Loved, LOVEd, LOVED this story!

I'm becoming a little repetitive in my reviews of 2023, but small town, single dad romance? Hello my catnip!!

A.L Jackson starts off a whole new series with a bang. Set in a small town with some great characters and a side of suspense, Time River is already off to a good start.

Paisley Dae has returned back to the town she grew up in to be near her family and friends after being hurt by someone she thought she loved. When she is offered a job as a horse trainer, she knows this is what her heart wants and needs. Upon arriving at the ranch for her first day, color her surprised that the man offering her the job is none other than the man she just backed her car into only minutes before. But there is something intriguing about the broody, bossy, buttoned up man that Paisley can't help but be drawn to. And that cute little girl by his side? She needs something to care about just as much as Paisley does.

Oh how I loved this story and the enemies to lovers vibe right from the start. The audiobook performances by Joe Arden and Andi Arndt brought this story to life. I could literally see the fender bender that happened at the very beginning so vividly. Caleb and Paisley's tension was already off the charts from there. It was obvious that Caleb had other issues that he was running from and he wasn't going to let anyone in. But he had a duty to the cute, innocent little girl (Evelyn) and he would do anything to protect her.

Let's just say that this story gave me everything I love in a romance.
Small town, Single Dad, Enemies to Lovers, Forced Proximity, Grumpy/Sunshine with Romantic Suspense. A.L Jackson sold me on all of those alone, but it's her writing and storytelling along with an amazing cast of characters and a wonderful audio performance by two amazing narrators that set this one apart. I'm a sucker for a single dad and I love the women that fall for them. The way the adults connect with the children and adding that to their relationship dynamic adds to the overall chemistry. Plus the sexual tension between Paisley and Caleb was absolute fire. Even when they hated one another, you could tell that once they let go, they were going to explode. Let's just say that first FaceTime call will live rent free in my head.

With the relationships between Caleb, Paisley, Evelyn and even her horse, we got to see how each character grew, learned to trust and how they formed a new family after their traumatic pasts. Everything flowed effortlessly from the family relationship dynamic, to the couple's relationship to the overall mystery that had Caleb on high alert. I was constantly glued to the story from the beginning and didn't want the story to come to end.

Love Me Today is a wonderful start to a great new series and I'm already excited to read about the rest of the characters in the town. 4.5 "you're my favorite Day" stars

Emotional and heartfelt!

Wow, just wow. This story was so captivating and I could not put it down. “Love Me Today” is an emotional, heartfelt, action packed and steamy romance between Paisley and Caleb that squeezed my heart in the best possible ways.

Paisley is back in town after being gone and is in search of a job. Horses have always been her first love and she has the opportunity to work on a ranch helping a little girl learn to ride. Caleb is new in town with his daughter, Evelyn, and is a grumpy, guarded and overprotective man. When they first meet, tensions are high and they instantly butt heads. But a horse and the sweetest girl make sure that they spend time together. But when Caleb’s past comes for him, Evelyn and Paisley, he’s determined to do whatever he needs to do to protect them.

My heart will forever be with Caleb and Paisley. From the first meet, to all of their interactions and the chemistry that was just screaming at me as I listened, I connected with these two from the beginning. Paisley is the sunshine to the dark demons that Caleb was facing on a daily basis from his past back in Seattle. The way she was able to break down his walls and made sure he knew he was capable and deserved love was one of my favorite parts. Paisley is kind, smart and one of the most genuine people. Caleb is strong, caring, protective and a man who uses a grumpy personality to protect his heart. I loved the tension and build up to the moment when they realized how much they needed each other. The suspense of Caleb’s problem from back in Seattle kept me listening as I tried to figure it out and I was shocked when it was revealed. Evelyn is such a cute kid and I loved her. I cannot wait for more from this series.

This is hands down one of Joe Arden’s best performances. Chapter 11 was heartbreaking and I felt everything that Caleb went through as Joe narrated. I loved Andi as Paisley. The last few chapters when everything went down pulled on my heart and Andi did an amazing job bringing all of those moments and emotions to life.

My favorite Dae🥰

5⭐️ 1.5🌶️

Wowwwwwww. Another fantastic small town single dad romance by AL Jackson! Plus amazing performances by Joe and Andi! ♥️

I knew right from the start that I was going to love Caleb. I always fall for the broody, mysterious man who has secrets bigger than his billionaire wallet. And the tension between him and Paisley… phewwww 🥵 had me sweatin.

Also the moments between Evelyn and Paisley were seriously so stinkin cute.

Caleb and Paisley could not have been more right for each. I loved that Paisley was the type of woman who would to stick by your side and help you fight your demons, however dark they may be. It took Caleb some time to come around to how loyal and honest her love was, but man, when he did, it was like a fireworks show.

I didn’t expect the twist there at the end! So I can never say anything bad about a book that doesn’t have me guessing the ending or the “whodunnit”.

I will say that the one tiny thing that bothered me was the nicknames between her and her best friend. But that’s probably a me issue lolol.

Anywayssss, yeah definitely read this book if you love small town, single dad romances with a suspense plot!
