New Audiobook Release Review: Colt by Jessica Peterson

 Colt by Jessica Peterson is now live on audio!

Narrated by: Vanessa Edwin & Aiden Snow 

She isn’t supposed to care about a ranch.
She definitely isn't supposed to fall for the foreman.
And his six-year-old son is absolutely, definitely not supposed to capture her heart.

Lainey Brown is not ranch material. She's a city girl who landed on the legendary Wallace Ranch to give the place a fresh coat of branding—and get her career back on track. She's got no interest in cowboys, cattle, or the infuriatingly gorgeous foreman who clearly wants her gone.

Colton Wallace has spent every day since losing his wife building something worth leaving his son: a spotless reputation, a thriving operation, and a life with no room for complications. The last thing he needs is a firecracker from Austin with a sketchbook full of big ideas and a smile that makes him forget every reason he swore off wanting things he can't keep.

But somewhere between their very first fight and a Texas night sky that stretches on forever, something shifts. Lainey stops counting the days until she can leave. And Colt stops pretending he wants her to.

The ranch has always been the Wallace legacy. But Colt is starting to wonder if the best thing that's ever happened to it—and to him—just walked in wearing city shoes.

COLT is the first cowboy romance book in the all-new DOUBLE U RANCH series, releasing summer 2026! 

My review: 5 stars!

What a great start to a new series! Colt and Lainey's enemies-to-lovers story was full of all the things I love in my romance reads- spice, tension, the best banter, and believable relationship development. Being from Oklahoma, I know Texas well and author Peterson certainly did the state justice. Yay for hot cowboys! Grumpy/sunshine is always one of my favorite tropes, and Colt was the best kind of growly grumpy and Lainey's sunshiny personality was the cutest. I listened to the audiobook narrated in duet by Vanessa Edwin and Aiden Snow, and their performances were absolutely perfect. Chef's kiss casting for sure. One book in, and I am here for the Double U Ranch Series and cannot wait for the next book.

New Release Review: Ryder by Jessica Peterson

 Ryder by Jessica Peterson is now live on audio!

Narrated by: Lila Winters & Stephen Dexter

One hard fall in the rodeo ring.
One maddeningly gorgeous cowboy.
One chance at love she swore she’d never take.

Billie Wallace has spent her whole life trying to prove she’s more than the Wallace Ranch’s “wild” only daughter. All she wants is a shot at barrel racing—and a purpose beyond crunching numbers in her daddy’s office. But when her very first run ends in disaster, Billie lands flat on her back with Ryder Rivers—her childhood crush, her brother’s best friend, and the town’s notorious heartbreaker—hovering over her.

In all the years she's known him, Ryder has never entertained Billie's shameless flirting. But after her fall, he's suddenly everywhere—showing up to help her when she’s hurt, staring at her across the honky-tonk when she’s trying to move on with a bronc rider, and encouraging her to explore her dream career.

Before either can really register what’s happening, their partnership sparks into much more than just dust and arguments.
Late nights turn into stolen kisses. Stolen kisses turn into something that feels dangerously like forever. Ryder swears he’s not the staying kind, but the way he looks at Billie like she’s the only woman in the world makes everyone start to wonder if he’s ready to stop running…

My review: 5 stars!

What an excellent end to a fantastic series! I loved Billie and Ryder's story- their chemistry was so apparent and so perfect. I loved seeing all the couples (and kids!) from the prior Lucky River Ranch books and having them all be such a big part of the story. The audiobook was such a joy to listen to- Stephen Dexter and Lila Winters gave top-notch performances.

New Release Review: Sawyer by Jessica Peterson

 

Sawyer by Jessica Peterson is now live! 

Dirty dancing leads to a chance at forever in this sizzling single parent, found family, small town romance by Jessica Peterson.

As a recently divorced single mom, I have zero interest in flirting with guys while on a rare girls’ weekend away with my sisters. I just want to have fun, celebrate my new job, and listen to live music at a honky tonk.

But when I literally stumble into the most gorgeous guy ever on the dance floor, those plans go up in smoke. Growing up on the barrel racing circuit, I’m not immune to the charms of a cowboy. But this particular one is hot as hell: Sawyer’s got a mustache, some sexy tattoos, and a very filthy mouth.

Needless to say, we end up naked in his swanky hotel room. It’s the best sex of my life. And the way Sawyer treats me like a queen? Let’s just say a girl could get addicted to that kind of adoration. 

Good thing he’ll always be just a one night stand I can look back on with a smile. I’m rebuilding our life from scratch, and I need to focus on my three-year-old daughter and the dream job I just landed.

Imagine my surprise, then, when I move to Hartsville and run into a tattooed cowboy with an endearing daughter of his own. Now Sawyer wants more than the occasional playdates between our girls. But the closer we become, the more determined this sexy single dad is to keep me forever. 

As much as I am falling for Sawyer, I’m terrified. I’ve been down this road before with my ex, and I wonder if I can trust this cowboy. Will he rope the moon for me? Or is my heart destined to be trampled all over again?

My review; 5 stars!

Ava and Sawyer's story was one I just couldn't put down- I was hooked from the start! The Lucky River Ranch series has been so good, and Sawyer may be my favorite. I loved how they both had 3 year old little girls and how their scorching one night stand turns into being unexpected neighbors. Situations in the books seem real and relatable and I am always here for a book with no unnecessary drama- no third act breakup!
