Review / Release Blitz: The Maverick (Hayden Family #2) by Jennifer Millikin

The Maverick by Jennifer Millikin is now live!
I'm not a gambling man, but for her, I'm willing to bet it all.

I know you've heard about me.
The middle Hayden brother, the one whose wife ran off.
I'm not the short-tempered new owner of the Hayden Cattle Company, like my big brother. I'm not the wild stallion with a mystery ax to grind, like my little brother.
I'm Warner Hayden. Single-father, second-in-command of my family's ranching dynasty, and my steady, secure world is about to get rocked by America's sweetheart.
I'd heard Tenley Roberts was coming to our small town to film her latest movie, I just didn't think she'd be driving a 1976 Bronco. So, no, I didn't know the identity of the beautiful stranger I helped on the side of the road, but I figured it out a few days later. And I haven't been the same since.
Tenley is unexpectedly funny, and complicated. I'm recently divorced, fearful of the way she makes my heart beat double-time, and gun-shy.
Despite all this, we're too wrapped up in each other to care.
But then things with Tenley take an unforeseen turn, and everyone assumes I'll take my licks the way I always have.
Not this time.
Maybe I am the nice, dependable brother.
But I'm also a Hayden, born and bred.
And this bull has horns.

MY REVIEW
Warner's wife left him and he's just now getting papers. He's going to have to get used to life as a divorced single father working on his family's ranch, even though that ranch work isn't really what he wants to be doing. And then a gorgeous Hollywood superstar happens to him. Tenley needs help learning ranch work for her new movie. Who better to teach her than a real cowboy like Warner? But when it becomes more than him teaching her, will he be able to offer her everything she wants, she deserves? Love? Marriage? Babies? If he can't (won't), Tenley's not sure she can stick around.
Tenley isn't about to go looking for love since her ex cheated on her. But when she meets a gorgeous cowboy and starts to see what a life away from Hollywood could be like, suddenly things start looking differently for her. But do she and Warner want the same things from life? Or is Warner still reeling too much from how much his life has imploded thanks to his ex?

The Maverick is a sweet, slow burn romance. I adored both Warner and Tenley - they're both so sweet with these big hearts. Despite her being from Hollywood, she's genuine and down to earth, which is a good thing because she's perfect for equally big-hearted Warner. I wanted to hug him and tell him everything would be OK, hug them both, actually. Their story was very slow burn, perhaps too much so, but sweet and filled with lovable, genuine characters. Now I'm really excited for Wyatt's story - more Hayden brothers on my Kindle is definitely something to look forward to.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
