Summary

I kissed my best friend’s little sister, and the world stood still.

That night we were two perfect strangers, the town’s grumpy recluse and a gorgeous girl in the back of a bar. Until we weren’t.

Because Nadia Dalca isn’t just some girl. She’s the girl I can’t have. Fourteen years younger than me and completely off-limits.

My plan is to stay away, but the universe keeps pushing us together. It’s like some sort of cosmic joke, to give me a taste of something so electric—so real—something that breathed life back into me.

Because I can look, but I can’t touch.

Her sinful curves, her light-hearted laughter, her wild side . . . I’m addicted to every last bit of her.

And when she turns those sultry eyes on me–the ones so full of longing and so free of judgement? I’ve always considered myself a strong man. But when she looks at me I’m weak.

To give in to our connection would be a betrayal. My life is beyond complicated, and she has the world at her fingertips. Her brother is the only family she has left, and sad as it sounds, he’s also my only friend.

But I kissed her again anyway.

And now I can’t stop.

Be still my beating heart!

Such a beautiful story and the gesture at the end … so poignant and perfect! I loved everything about this book - the writing, the main characters, the narration - Elsie Silver can do no wrong and is undoubtedly one of my favourite authors. This was a wonderful end to a wonderful series - so worth a credit, and I will continue to automatically purchase everything written by this most talented author. 100% recommend.

Great end to the series

Different themes again from the other books. Beautiful settings and a great love story. Great pacing and kept me interested.

A fantastic final book in the series! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I loved hearing Nadia & Griffin's romance play out so much!! Through the first 3 books, Gold Rush Ranch has become one of my favourite places to be, and this fourth and presumably final book was just as amazing as the others!!
Wonderfully written, as always, by Elsie Silver, both narrators used their amazing skills to flawlessly portray all of the emotions that Nadia & Griffin were experiencing as they worked hard to overcome their pasts, and feel able to love one another.
I loved all of the interactions with and updates on the lives of the other 3 couples throughout the book, together with an epilogue which gives one final update on all 4 couples.
I will definitely return to this series more than once in the future. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
