Wyatt Rivers is the perfect no-strings hookup—a cowboy Casanova who rocks a Stetson, looks smokin’ hot in his Wranglers, and never rests his head on the same pillow twice.

He’s exactly what I’m looking for. If only Wyatt wasn’t also my best friend…

I’m back in my hometown of Hartsville, Texas, for a few months while I wait for my dream job to start thousands of miles away. While I’m here, I hope to end an epic dry spell in the bedroom, preferably with a local cowboy. If the rumors are true, they really do ride harder and stay on longer.

Wyatt and I have been best friends since second grade, and I’ve been in love with him for almost as long. But he’s as wild and untamed as a colt that can’t be broken—not to mention, totally out of my league with his good looks and heartbreaker reputation.

Then I get to thinking: since Wyatt is such an expert, why doesn’t he teach me the ropes of how to find a hookup? He begrudgingly agrees, and a little fake flirting suddenly leads to fake dating, which leads to real kissing, which leads to real…well, everything else.

And let me just say, the rumors are absolutely true.

Now, I want so badly to be Wyatt’s last rodeo. But I’m leaving town, and even if I wasn’t, I’m not sure Wyatt would ever change his playboy ways.

I know cowboys can’t be tamed. Apparently, neither can hearts…

An epic friends to lovers happily ever after! I adored getting to know all of the Rivers brothers when I dived headfirst into Cash recently, so jumping almost straight into Wyatt’s book was exciting. It started out as a huge disconnect though if you read directly from the ending of Cash into Wyatt. At the end of Cash, there’s a mini cliffhanger that is not picked up at that spot in Wyatt and time and happenings are severely adjusted. It put a huge damper on my enjoyment of this book because it was obvious things had moved forward but we hadn’t yet addressed what happened. Regardless, I did enjoy Wyatt and Sally together and their turn around the dancefloor of love was sweet. I’m looking forward to Sawyer’s story next!

This book drug somewhat compared to Cash, but some of that could have been from my unhappiness with the change of timing and let down of finding out what happened with John B., etc. I loved the family and the setting and even the main characters, I just wasn’t quite as hooked as previously. Great characters, fun loving setting and supporting cast and lots of heart and warmth.

My dad and I have been estranged for years. But as his only living relative, it’s no surprise I inherit his massive cattle ranch when he dies. Something that is a surprise? The stipulation in his will, which requires me to live on the ranch and actively manage it for a year before I can access my inheritance money.

I haven’t stepped foot in Hartsville, Texas, population one thousand, since my parents split when I was six. Now a city girl through and through, I never imagined having to move back to cowboy country. But I need the money to invest in my company, and a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.

There’s just one giant roadblock to my plan: the ranch’s foreman, grumpy cowboy Cash Rivers. I don’t care how good he looks in his Wranglers and chaps. He’s rude, he’s growly, and he wants me gone. I’d fire him in a heartbeat, but I need this cowboy to teach me the ropes of running a ranch.

We’re enemies from the get-go. But turns out, Cash is really good at this ranch thing. He’s got strong hands, an intelligent mind, and let’s just say everything really is bigger in Texas. Working alongside him leads to conversations beneath the stars. Throw in some cheek-to-cheek dancing at the local dive bar, and it all feels so right that I start to fall in love with life on the ranch. And maybe with him, too.

But my stay in Hartsville is only temporary. And you know what they say about cowboys: they may break horses, but they also break hearts. If only Cash hadn’t already lassoed mine…

A downhome, sexy romance that will leave you yearning for more cowboys! Cash is the first in the Lucky River Ranch series by Jessica Peterson and I was hooked quickly. It is an enemies to lovers story that takes place in Texas with delightfully sinful cowboys around every corner. We are quickly entrenched into Mollie’s story as she returns to settle the affairs of her estranged father after his death and finds herself thrust into a situation she wasn’t expecting. Foreman of her dad’s ranch Cash can’t stand her city girl vibes and particular dislikes the way she treated the man that was like a second father to he and his brothers. The characters both have interesting back stories and plans for their futures that have them settled in far from each other places, but the more time she spends connecting with her inner cowgirl, the more she finds herself aching for the cowboy who she loves to hate! Great characters with a supporting cast that has the ranch and town feeling like family that this reader wants to revisit quickly. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a steamy cowboy romance with lots of heart and several more cowboys who already steal your heart in this book. Three more books are already released in the series and one more is on the way to finish off the line up of Cash’s brothers!
