My review of The Rancher’s Secret Crush

Welcome to Three Springs, Texas. Whether this is your first visit or your sixth, you’re in for an adventure. I love this town and its residents. You don’t need to read any of the other books in order to enjoy The Rancher’s Secret Crush, but I love and recommend the entire series! 

When Elsie Parks rolls into Three Spring, Texas with a moving truck, it’s not because she’s moving there. She’s moving to New York for what she thinks will be her dream job, and she’ll finally be happy. When her brother suffers injuries from a fall, Elsie thinks she’s on a short pitstop to watch her nieces until her brother gets out of the hospital. Then she sees him and realizes her short stay just got a lot longer. And not only does her brother need her to take care of his daughters, Elsie is going to have to run the farm, or he’ll get too far behind in his new honey endeavor. One person she really didn’t want to see is Ryan Sloan. You’ll find out why. But, Elsie ends up having to rely on Ryan. A lot. 

I just love the residents in the small town of Three Springs! We’ve seen romances develop for Ryan’s friends and brothers but not Ryan! Elsie’s arrival has him spinning. Elsie is sweet, smart, determined, and stubborn, and Ryan is determined not to fall for her. Elsie feels that same determination! But Ryan is a true gentleman, and he’s phenomenal with her nieces. I absolutely adored Ryan and Elsie! I loved revisiting the residents I “know” and getting to know the new ones. Elsie’s nieces are so funny. I love how they have Ryan wrapped around their little fingers. 

The Rancher’s Secret Crush is a completely clean, wholesome romance. I adored “watching” the romance develop between Ryan and Elsie. Of course, some of the town residents are eager to help that romance along! They go through some major obstacles in order to get their happily ever after, but don’t worry! This heartwarming romance won’t let you down!

I highly recommend The Rancher’s Secret Crush for its wonderful characters, humorous situations, and sweet romance! 

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
