review 1: CRISTINA'S REVIEW - 5 StarsI was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this story. Battle McCoy and Faye Callahan’s story was heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time for me. They are total opposites that have issues in their life that keeps them from moving forward for a long time until that one spontaneous night of being together changed everything. This is my first book by KJ Bell and it definitely did not disappoint. The 5 stars read had me at “I want the middle” with a poignant ride of emotions throughout the novel. A must-read that will give you a new found meaning of loving again!LEEANN'S REVIEW - 4.5 StarsThis is a story about a man who's father was such a poor example to him growing up that he 2 feels there is no such thing as love and that there... more is no way he would be capable of loving a woman and being with her for the rest of his life. Battle is a rodeo star. He is the champion and excels in the ring every time he gets on the back of a bull. But that is where it stops, or so he believes.Faye is the perfect daughter and girlfriend. She does exactly what is expected of her because that is how she was brought up. Then she meets Battle and everything changes. What started out as a dare from Faye's friends turns out to be the love of her life. Only he fights it every step of the way. Even when his life is turned upside down and he needs Faye the most he pushes her away. Her heart is breaking for him but she respects his wishes and stays away. UntilUntil her mother of all people tells her to get up and fight for him. There is one way Faye knows to get through to him and it is with a game of dice. Then Faye makes a shocking discovery and it could tear them apart forever.. this is their biggest hurdle yet and it is up to Battle to decide if he wants to fight for them or let her go.This story has some really sad moments but also some really triumphant ones too. Battle and Faye are two really good people who love their friends and family so much but the love the have for each other is huge, and although it is a hard lesson especially for Battle, they do Come to realize they are each great people on their own but together they can do and be anything!Awesome read!!
review 2: Full Review to follow...The ending was beautiful and I highly recommend this book to anyone that loves a great romance. Battle and Faye are perfect for each other watching them bond then fall in love was absolute magic. Well written, this love story will take you through a roller coaster of emotions. I instantly fell in love with these two cheering them on for an HEA. The side characters where absolutely perfect as well. All of their plots run concurrent with our main characters and it was lovely to see them have HEA’s as well. I can tell Ms. Bell takes great care of her characters as though they are a part of her. I absolutely ravished this book in one sitting so I know you will too. My Rating 4.5 Breakup, Business Trip, Bull Rider, Dakota’s, Jack Daniels, Wheat Field, The Middle, Proposal, McCoy, Cancer, Autism, Lost Friendship, Bloody Mary, Red Car, Blue Eyes, Lost Grandmother, Independent Daughter, First Place, Never Surrender, Anniversary, Gentry, Unrelenting love filled stars! less
