Holding the Reins by Paisley Hope
3.0

*audiobook and ebook review*

While this book was cute, it didn't quite hook me as much as I'd hoped. I found myself struggling to connect with the main characters, and their chemistry just didn't quite work for me.

However, I think this book would make a fantastic palette cleanser if you've just come off a heavy or emotional read. 

I went for an immersive read with this one, pairing the kindle book with the audiobook, and I would recommend the audiobook. Brooke Daniels and Thomas Oakley did a fantastic job with the dual narration, really bringing the characters to life through their voices. Even if the story didn't fully hook me, their performance was great.
