Description
Molly McDaniel is drowning in student debt and working two dead-end jobs just to keep her dream of becoming a wedding planner on life support. Life feels like a series of closed doors until she unexpectedly inherits a crumbling horse farm from an aunt she barely knew. It is the definition of a logistical nightmare, especially for a city girl who wouldn't know a horseshoe from a high heel.
Desperate to turn a profit, Molly plans to flip the property and use the windfall to launch her own business. But the farm comes with a stubborn, tight-knit community that isn't ready to let her sell the soul of the place. Standing firmly in her way—and her heart—is Shani, the farm's fiercely protective, infuriatingly attractive farrier. Shani doesn't trust a thing about Molly, viewing her as an ill-equipped interloper who will inevitably run the barn into the ground.
As the sparks fly and the tension between the grumpy farrier and the sunshine-seeking city girl intensifies, Molly begins to realize that her true purpose might lie in the very place she was trying to escape. This is a story about finding home in the most unexpected corners of your past and the messy, beautiful ride of falling for someone who challenges everything you thought you wanted.

so good
It’s rare I get a book and literally can’t put it down and in the brief moments I did all I could think about is what Happens next.

cowgirl romance say what
When a city girl inherits a horse farm from her estranged late aunt. she never expects to fall head over heels for the grumpy hot farrier who dislikes her. Molly McDaniel's life is not going great, her crushing student loans haunt her, her back to back jobs to just get by take up most of her time, and her dream of starting an event planning business has been put on the backburner. When she gets news that she has inherited her late estranged aunt's run down, struggling horse barn, this could be her chance to finally get her life back in track if she can sell it.... yet when she gets there she meets Shani, the hot cocky farrier who was close to her aunt and who dislikes Molly for being the one to inherit the horse farm. Shani refuses to give up on the barn and dislikes Molly for even thinking about wanting to sell it. Molly knows she can't take care of the horse farm, she has no experience, yet the longer she spends there getting to know all the people who were working on it with her aunt and actually spending more time with Shani, she begins to fall in love with both the farm and Shani. Will Molly risk it all and keep the farm and try and convince Shani that she means to stay, or will she finally chase after her dreams and take the easy way out? This was a really easy to read cowgirl romance, but it just felt like it was missing something for me. I was hoping for some further development in the romance or some actual chemistry, but it just wasn't there for me. I really wanted…

Betting the farm
Shani and Molly meet after Molly unexpectedly inherits the horse farm that Shani expected to be hers. The two butt heads as Molly figures out what she wants to do with the farm. Both women are gun shy due to ghost from theirs past but they can't deny the chemistry between them. Just when it looks like they might get their happily ever after, betrayal from a friend throws a wrench in the works. This was a really good read with well structured characters and an engaging storyline.
