Reached in perfect condition!

5⭐️ This has got to be one of my new favorite books I’ve read. The characters, their relationship, the ✨spice✨ Everything about this book I adored. Would definitely recommend

How’s that song go again? Save a horse, ride a cowboy? 🥵 Ughhh, Daddy Cade! Raw, next question… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Dual POV • Small Town Romance • Nanny x Single Dad • Age Gap • Grumpy x Sunshine • Forced Proximity “𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘻𝘺 𝘣𝘳𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘩 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘵𝘺 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘪𝘯 𝘣𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘥, 𝘈𝘭𝘦𝘹.“ This is my first 5 star read of the year! (I know, I’m super picky. It’s not you it’s me…) “𝘓𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘯, 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥. 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘢 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩. 𝘚𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘮” As much as I love love loved Cade, Willa absolutely carrieddddd this book, she is one of the funniest FMC’s to exist. Period. Every interaction with her had me giggling. The biggest sell in a book for me is banter. banter. banter. And Willa’s was top tier! 👌🏼 Watching our grumpy, heartless cowboy fall head over heels for her was so much fun! “𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘮𝘺 𝘧𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘪𝘧 𝘐 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘐 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘩, 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘨𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘳 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘨𝘦𝘵 t̶̶i̶t̶t̶y̶-f̶u̶c̶k̶e̶d̶ 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘶𝘣, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢 𝘣𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘦𝘴?” Don’t be like me. If this book is on your tbr, do yourself a favour and pick it up! Don’t put it off for 2 years like I did because regrettt. 🥺

“𝐵𝑒𝑐𝑎𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢’𝑣𝑒 𝑛𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑏𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙮, 𝑊𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑎” Do you know when you find an author and you peer pressure everyone to read their books, and then they do, and the author starts to gain momentum (rightfully so), and you’re so so SO happy for the author because they absolutely deserve it but the tiniest part of you wishes you gatekept their books all to yourself? Cause same 😂 If you’ve ever interacted with me, you know how much I (violently) recommend Elsie’s books. I’m so happy that she is getting the recognition she deserves 🥹🥹🥹 Heartless may be the name, but this book was jam packed with all the humour and feels. Small town, single dad meets nanny, and the cutest kid? Check, check, all the checks! It was such a joy to read. Not only do you still get a dirty talking, broody, grumpy hero that Elise is known for, we get a heroine that despite her insecurities, is still the sunniest sunshine heroine we all love and gravitate towards. I loved seeing all of the Eaton clan together again - putting it out there that Harvey is the MVP of Chestnut Springs - and that the banter is still just as top notch as it has been in all of her previous books. As an aside, brain short circuited when I saw the name of the band Willa’s dad is in, that I had to dig out my old music book again. If you go to my Instagram, you’ll see 13 year old me’s list of possible band names when my brother and I were starting our band as tweens. You may spot something familiar after you read this book 😂 Elsie, I’ve said this to you (and about you) so many times, but I will repeat it once again: if you write it, I will read it. Thank you to Elsie for sending me this ARC, I am voluntarily leaving this review.

i really inhaledddd this book, it was so easy to read and was perfection — i wouldn’t change a single thing. flowed so easily, the spice was great, the dirty talk from cade was *chef’s kiss*🤭 the plot kept me engaged and invested, i loveddd it. ate up the whole thing in less than 24 hours. love the whole eaton family / family friends, they’re such an adorable bunch of people🥹 luke is the cutest and funniest little kid, and willa is so sassy and funny she made me laugh with her flirty banter and winding up grumpy cade. my soul needed this fun read, exactly what i wanted🥰 can’t get enough of willa and cade🫶🫶 obsessed.

I loved this book so much. I love this family SO much! I’m sad it’s over! The jokes, the ribbing each other, just everything in it makes me want it to keep going! Willa is fierce and awesome and I think I have a girl crush on her. She’s just such a strong character and stubborn and perfect for grumpy Cade. His growth is absolutely amazing and his son stole my heart. I laughed heaps, I got emotional multiple times, and I loved every second of this amazing book.
