She wrote a romance that is exactly the type of romance that I want to read. Have you ever felt like an author has written a book just for you? Like they somehow know the book that would just fit your likes and wants, while not having any or your dislikes? Well that’s what Noyes did here. And I’m glad I cracked because this is everything I wanted in a good romance and I desperately needed another 5 star read for 2021. That is like someone giving me a gram cracker and a toasted marshmallow but telling me I can’t have the chocolate, it’s just cruel and I made it three days until I cracked and read the book. Noyes book and I’m somehow supposed to stay on schedule and wait a month to read it? Noyes, who is not only my favorite author but one of the best current authors in WLW fiction, and now I have to pretend that her book isn’t sitting on my Kindle. But then I’m given an early copy of an E.J. I’m trying to stick to a strict schedule of what I read and when, so hopefully I can feel more caught up. Just maybe.īring on the Noyes! I have so many books to read and review lately that I have been feeling a bit behind. And maybe Caitlyn and Addie will realize childhood memories aren’t always accurate, and that they have more in common than they would ever have thought. With the Olympics looming, they’ll need to set aside their history and learn to work together. And it might just offer the chance to be friends with the girl who wouldn’t even give her the time of day twenty years ago.īut Caitlyn and Addie have very different memories of their time together at Pony Club and their first meeting as adults is less like a reconnection and more like a butting of heads. The fact that her old crush from Pony Club is on the team is just a bonus. Not even the reappearance of a childhood so-not-a-friend throwing her perfectly balanced life into disarray.Īddie Gardner’s career is at its peak, and accepting a last-minute fill-in position as the veterinarian for the US Olympic Dressage Team was a no-brainer.

With the 2016 Rio Olympics just around the corner, nothing is going to derail her long-held dream of winning a medal or two in Olympic dressage. Or more accurately-under her horse’s hooves.
