Rootbound by Tarah DeWitt
4.0

A happy surprise audio delight for me; I wasn't expecting a lot I just wanted a contemporary romance and this delivers on both small town, cowboy yeehaw feels with deep feelings and nice steam. The plot overall was really complicated, especially in regards to Tait's estranged father, the ranch//inheritance business, and the family dynamics. Her and her sister's dialogue felt very juvenile (but hey what do I know), but overall I'll be back for more from this author.

gave me a bit of a similar feel to Jen Devon // Kate Clayborn, and I'm hoping as this author's writing matures it will pack more of those emotional punches that are swaddled in softness of the romance.

I waited too long to write this review so some of the details are a bit hazy, but i did also enjoy the audiobook narrators.

Content notes: grandmother has heart failure, has passed away in the epilogue
