Chasing the Wild was my first ever cowboy romance, and I do not think it will be my last! I was SO into Colt, like a lot, and for MANY reasons, but the cowboy aspect of him was very attractive.
It is a bit taboo - ex bf's dad + age gap, but honestly that is a major reason I was interested. There is something about it that makes it so much spicier!!
Colt is like the grumpiest cowboy man in the world, living mostly alone on the top of a mountain at his ranch, brooding his days away.
Layla is a final year vet student over her ex bf's crap, desperate to start her next placement so she can check off the box and graduate with her full degree. She is a fire-y feisty redhead with a no nonsense attitude, and I enjoyed her character a lot! She makes her way to Devil's Peak Ranch to dump her ex's stuff back with him, and then again to make him settle a debt he put in her name. What she finds instead is a gorgeous ranch, an even more gorgeous older man, and a 2 month placement at the ranch while being snowed in with none other than her ex's dad. Whom she is SO into.
I simultaneously enjoyed and and hated their push and pull; it was full of so much tension, attraction, and resistance! I think Colt could have been a little nicer to Layla instead of a grumpy cranky a hole when trying to resist her, but that is part of who he is! We get to see them tear down each other's walls, and when they collide? WHEW!!
The spice was so spicy, and I am living for it! Colt sure did know what he was doing, and there was just something about the taboo nature of it that took the spice to new levels.
The world building was excellent, I loved reading about the animals, the ranch, the mountains, storms, cabin, etc. All of it was so beautiful and I felt like I was there at times!
It has an HEA, and I am interested in the stories for the other characters in the book too!
Overall, I really enjoyed Chasing the Wild and I can't wait for the next installment with Storm... it's going to be a good one I think!
