A rugged mountain town seemed like the perfect escape from a life in shambles. But on day one I ran full tilt into the world’s hottest single dad and now all my plans are ruined.

As a chart-topping country singer with a recent streak of bad press it’s hard to find any peace. But I find it in Rose Hill. With a little boy and a little girl who steal my heart just as thoroughly as their dad.

Weston Belmont.

The man is a shameless flirt. He oozes confidence and masculinity in a way that’s downright distracting. And in bed? He’s addictive.

Everything with him is wild and impulsive and I’m desperate to regain some control.

But no one has supported me like West does. And no one has ever made me feel as loved as he does either.

So, while my brain says settling down with a small-town horse trainer is impossible… my heart says I’m right where I belong.

Still, my life as a celebrity haunts me. It has the power to pull us apart.

I can see in his eyes that wants me to stay. And I want that too.

But I know better than anyone that we don’t always get what we want.

Wild Eyes:

I received an earc of Wild Eyes by Elsie Silver in exchange for an honest review. This has in no way influenced my thoughts and feelings about the book.

I love this series. I think it might even bet the Chestnut Springs series for me. There is something about the single-parent trope that works for me. I knew I would enjoy Wild Eyes before I even started reading and I wasn’t wrong.

Would you call it a meet-cute situation if there was a real danger involved but it definitely felt like a meet-cute. West and Skylar just have this energy that fits so well with one another from the start. The banter that they have and don’t realise is fantastic and makes for some fantastic tension and angst.

Skyla just needed to get away from it all. All the fame, the people, the media. And Ford’s new studio gives her that opportunity, what she doesn’t expect is to run into West and his children. I love the relationship that all four of them build with one another. It honestly made me smile so much.

While I liked the journey that Skylar went on, especially concerning her family and career. I do wish we had a better relationship here. I wish she had someone on her side in the industry, eventually, she has Ford and Cora, but I do wish she had someone from the start. At times I also did feel a few times that things were a little clunky, but honestly, it wasn’t a major thing for me. I did just have to re-read a few parts.

Skylar and West together were fantastic, I don’t know if they jump to my favourite couples from Elsie Silver but they are strong contenders. As I said I think they are perfect for each other. They get one another on a different level and without even realising it, they are there for one another. Also, they were so hot together. Damn.

I had a blast reading Wild Eyes. I smiled and I did cry a little but one thing that Elsie Silver is good at is making me feel good while reading her books. Skylar and West were amazing, I loved the little family they created together. If you are looking for a slowly sexy and heartwarming romance, this one is for you. I’m also so excited for the next book in the series!
