**NO SPOILERS***
I’ll try to save the lengthy review and just say that this one gave me absolute *butterflies* throughout the ENTIRE book. I blushed. I was nervous. The chemistry practically leaped off the page! Romance is off the charts!! If you found yourself a little meh about the previous book (Stefan & Mira) you’ll be THRILLED to know that this story is immensely better. WAY BETTER!
Nadia has the spit fire personality similar to Billie and Willa (if you’ve read Chestnut Springs Series). Shes deep and all around amazing, but also still so young and knows that about herself. Her self awareness and old soul and so endearing. A lot of depth to her character and I found her sooo warm and likable. Shes also extremely sassy and quick witted and I adore that. The banter between and every character is pure gold.
I’ll admit I didn’t think I’d like Griffin at first but honey was I wrong. Same thing happened to me with sweet Cole Harding. Talk about a man in love. The kind of wild chemistry and romance they have in The Notebook. It’ll make your head swim in the best way. Swoon worthy until the last page. I also liked that his character had some issues to over come but he’s far from tortured and super closed off. His evolution isn’t brutally slow like other books. So 👏👏claps for that.
One thing I particularly love about Elsie Silver’s books is that they don’t follow a set pattern. Sure there’s the slow burn and a couple of repeated tropes throughout the 12 books of Gold Rush Ranch, Chestnut Springs, and Rosehill - but they all follow their own flow and they aren’t formulaic and predictable. The characters are all profoundly unique and the found family aspect in all 3 series is really unmatched. She’s got me thinking I actually know these people 😅🤦♀️
I also love that she doesn’t add pointless 3rd act drama but the storylines also don’t get stale. Each book is fresh and unique in its own way and it’s one of my favorite things about this author. Even down to the spice element in each book - every relationship is notably different so it keeps things veryyyy fresh and fun 😉😅🌶️🔥
As far as spice goes - this one is off the charts. Much spicier than Stefan and Mira (thankfully lol) and I’m telling you the chemistry had a girl blushing. Fanning my face. A few times my jaw was on the floor. Lol. But nothing too outlandish or fetish-y which Im glad about. Just two people very head over heels for each other.
If you’ve made it this far just stop and start reading the book. You’ll love it. Happy reading!

Griff raises the bar on being the perfect book boyfriend
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ STEAM: 🔥🔥🔥.5 Just when you think you found the perfect book boyfriend in Elsie Silver's Gold Rush Ranch series, the subsequent hero shoves the previous one off the throne. Don't get me wrong: All of the men in her series are fantastic, but Griff Sinclair has moved that bar higher. Griff needs to keep his distance from Nadia Dalca. Not only is she fourteen years younger than him, but she also happens to be his only best friend's younger sister. But he didn't know that when he gave in and kissed her in a bar bathroom. Even as time passed, neither of them could erase the fire that ignited from that kiss. And the distance they've kept from each other? Gone as Nadia works in the Gold Rush Ranch as a vet tech and Griff has been asked to pitch in with horse training as the current trainer Billie is all sorts of pregnant. Two sides of the same coin, they're both broken but resilient; just two amazing characters that complement each other well. They serve as each other's inspiration and support as they face their own adversities. I also love the ease with which they fit in each other's worlds. Elsie Silver has an uncanny ability to get you so invested in her characters so hard. So much so that every angst and hurt translate from paper right straight to your heart. I suppose I am glad that we have the spicy scenes to give us some reprieve from the emotional turmoil, but they just make us super thirsty. The dirty talk, the chemistry, the memorable moments (*cough*tent*cough*). The Gold Rush Ranch is one of my favorite fictional places to visit, and it literally hurts to say goodbye (for now) to these wonderful characters. This book is a phenomenal standalone, but you would be remiss to skip on the wonderful stories that came before.
