One thing that was glaring if you read the first book in the series: is this the same Olivia??? It's three months later, and the spoiled, immature princess who was half a villain in the first book is suddenly this brazen, strong, self-sufficient adult? I mean I liked this version a lot better, but it felt like I was reading about a totally different character. Also, why in the world is she so sure Brody loves her??? They've boned a few times, but he seems to go out of his way to make it clear he isn't into her (we are privvy to his inner monologue, but she is not).

While this book is much more well-written then the last, I am feeling increasingly uncomfortable about how race is treated in these books: most of the villains are Native American or Mexican, and the few non-villain POCs are mammy types and super one-dimensional. Why don't Eva's sons get books??? And can we talk about Elena? She was a hostage to her abusive brother for years and acted on his orders; I'm not saying she's Good, but to make her out to be a Big Bad... And damn, I was so ready for a hot threesome scene with Brody, Olivia, and Elena but I totally understand that the characters weren't ready for that. Still! Though, I did like the brief piece of narrative about borders, and how they are this artificial, invented, nebulous concept that we've collectively decided to believe in - that was my takeaway from that paragraph, anyways. (2.5 stars)

Might should go on the chubby heroine shelf too, but there are only a few references to her figure, and most of her insecurity is around her plainness. This is pretty hokey and I'm pretty sure Granny used every colloquialism associated with cowboys, but I liked the characters. I'm curious to read the rest - there is a mystery that isn't completely solved at the end - but none of the rest seem to cater to any of my favorite tropes, so it may be a while before I get to them.

Definitely steamy. Writing not bad. Story not too believable.
