Welcome to Chestnut Springs: the big-hitting, small-town series from TikTok sensation Elsie Silver. Perfect for fans of Devney Perry, Lucy Score and B.K. Borison. Theo Silva. Rowdy bull rider, notorious ladies' man, scorching hot trouble wrapped up in a drool-worthy package. And he's looking at me like I might be his next meal. I'm almost free of my toxic marriage and have sworn off men entirely. So all I see when I look at Theo is temptation served up with a heaping side of heartbreak. The man is hard to trust-and even harder to resist. Make that impossible. Because Theo is persistent. And no matter how hard I try to freeze him out, he melts my icy exterior and pulls apart all my defences. Then I spend the singular hottest night of my life with him. It was supposed to be a one-time thing. A secret. But that little plus sign is going to make this secret impossible to keep.

I've been hoping for redemption for Winter since reading Flawless, and boy did Elsie deliver. I sort of knew that I would love her after I read the dedication for the book and that I would relate to her in so many ways. In this fourth installment of the Chestnut Springs series, we get to read all about Summer's sister Winter, a doctor who is perceived as cold but is really just misunderstood, and Theo, Rhett's bull riding protege. After a night of drinking at a hotel bar and a delicious one night stand, Winter finds herself pregnant. Reading Winter's journey into motherhood and those early months was so incredibly relatable and really resonated with me. Elsie did an amazing job at showcasing those tougher elements of motherhood and the toll it can take on a woman. Theo. Freaking. Silva. Perhaps my new favorite Chestnut Springs man? That feels like a big claim after the others, but I loved him so much! He is so tender and considerate and he loves so hard, but the mouth on that boy... swoon. He is just as sweet as he is spicy. The banter, tension, and pay off were all so well done. I love this book so much, and I think many women will see themselves in Winter. Reckless is an adult small town romance, 18+ for sexual content and themes. check the authors note at the start of the book Reckless releases June 9, 2023 and it is available for preorder now!

I loved Winters point of view.
I loved how she worked on being a better sister and getting a relationship with her sister and his family.
I love a pregnancy trope.
Normally, I am not a fan of surprise pregnancy tropes but this was great. In fact, i was about to dnf it as soon as i got to the part where she finds out but then i stuck through because i wanted to read about theo. and so i am glad i did, because this was so good. The baby was so adorable, and i loved theo and winter's dynamic. It was great!
