I really enjoyed Rhett and Summer’s story! Great angst, humor, and potentially plausible scenarios. The romance was enjoyably slow to build, but when it happened, all kinds of good things occurred. Haha. They have a great love story and the additional characters only added to it, not a distraction. Certainly, an author I will read more of.

I LOVED this book. Enemies to lovers banter is my FAVORITE. And Summer and Rhett were SO GOOD AT IT. I’m so excited that this series is getting traditionally published!! The world needs more of the Chestnut Springs series!!
They were amazing honestly. The last thing Rhett wanted was someone watching him and the last thing Summer wants to do it be his keeper! He thrives in attention - positive or negative, be craves it. And now Summer is paying attention. Sure at first it’s for work, but she’s doing it nonetheless and he eventually starts giving her the attention she’s always wanted and deserved.
Rhett made Summer realize that she doesn’t have to do everything other people want, especially if doesn’t make her 100% happy. And the way Summer really started sticking up for Rhett, she tried so hard to make sure people saw him for who he really was. That was so important and he never had anyone do that for him before.
And they were SO SWEET together. They brought out the best in each other. And they never lost their banter. Even when they were in deep, they were still teasing each other and Summer always put Rhett in his place. They were the absolute perfect match!
Thank you to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Bloom Books for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This was my first Elise Silver and I loved it. She’s absolutely ruining all other cowboys for me with her small town Canadian cowboy series! Flawless is such a great opposites attract romance. The tension between Rhett and Summer is SO good! And it’s forced proximity and only one bed?! If you need a steamy, small town romance with cowboys and excellent banter this is it! I will say I did not see the twist coming, but it made me so excited for the rest of the series! 4.5 stars (5 for netgalley and goodreads)

Wow. Wow. Wow. I was not anticipating this at all. I really loved this book!
This was the perfect small town, forced proximity, spicy love story that I NEEDED in my life.
I loved the dynamic between Summer and Rhett! Elsie does such a fantastic job of balancing the story out with the perfect amount of tension, spice, and action within the story to keep you engaged and kicking you feet up in the air.
Also the way Elsie writes the men and women in this series is PERFECTION!! The women are strong, independent, and always challenging the men, while the men are cocky, sweet, and so dirty mouthed ahhhh.
I can’t say how much I love this series enough! This was a sweet story with some great spice! If you’re looking for a cute small town romance with a bull riding cowboy this is right up your alley! As a small town romance lover, I can confidently say that this is my favorite small town romance series.
I’m v excited for a possible Winter and Beau story??? Who knows!

Elsie Silver knows how to write the best cowboy small town romances! Rhett and Summer were so hot- chemistry for days! I love the family dynamic that Rhett has with his brothers and the tension Summer has with her sister and dad/ step mother. Great start to a newly favorite series!

I love the new cover for this book!
I’m between 3 and 4 stars for this book! A very smut romance book that I found to be intriguing because it was so different from anything I’d normally read. Im excited that this was my introduction to the Chestnut Springs world and cowboy romance books! A lot of the romance was corny, but the twist were JUICY!! I loved the dramatics and the male MC rides bulls!!! Come on!!

This book was so good! Elsie silver hits every time. Rhett and Summer definitely went through it during this book but in the end they made it out and I love them as a couple. The character development was so good through this and I was so invested in their story. GREAT READ, don’t hesitate! Thank you to netgalley for the arc

NOW THIS SERIES….IM OBSESSED. Elsie Silver is my new favorite author. Cowboys being a gentleman is my new thingggg. Rhett is my new hook boyfriend. this was a ten star read. I shall be rereading this

Thanks to NeGalley for free coffee in exchange for an honest opinion.
I am so not into Cowboys, but there’s something about Canadian Cowboys that really float my boat. This book was way better than I thought it was going to be and I don’t know why I thought I was gonna be bad. I loved it. Can’t wait to read the rest of series.

Summer sees Rhett for who he really is and not just the persona he presents the world. Rhett’s whole world changed the minute Summer smirked at him and she made him, Rhett and not Rhett the bull rider, a priority. With Rhett, Summer felt adored and cared for without feeling like a burden and loved beyond anything she ever experienced. The chemistry between them is on fire and so passionate- they truly are made for each other.
Thank you publishers and netgalley for this eARC of the new edition of Flawless!

i know for a fact that men like this don't live in ALBERTA!!!???!?!
cowboy x city girl romance. i think im in my cowboy era🤠🤠. the ranch/farm lifestyle in romances is growing on me. i enjoyed rhett and summer's story. forced proximity, only one bed, grumpy male. i'm happy that rhett finally had someone in his corner, someone supporting him and i'm glad summer finally has someone taking care of her. they're perfect together. i really enjoyed this book and i can't wait to read the rest of the series!!
thank you SOURCEBOOKS, bloom books for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review ♡
flawless is out now, available to read on KU!!

This is such a great book! I loved reading it the first time and was sooo happy to have an excuse to read it again. I love Rhett especially when he is with Summer.

I didn't LOVE it I didn't hate it. I liked the characters fine and the story line.
But for me something was missing. & the whole milk thing? That was weird lol. That's all have for this review.

Rhett is the golden boy in the professional bull riding world. But one mistake may just cost him his career. Summer's father, Kip, owns the firm who represents him, and his solution? Send Summer in as a full time babysitter to ensure Rhett is on his best behaviour. Is she up for the task?
This is a forced proximity, grumpy sunshine, forbidden, one bedroom romance with great spice and amazing banter. This is book 1 in the Chestnut Springs series, and I loved all the hints to the characters in her other series (the Goldrush Ranch). You don't have to have read this other series, but it was so good, I highly recommend. I also loved most of the side characters (the ones I didn't like were meant to be unlikable). I loved her father and her relationship with him, his father and his relationship with him and his brothers, and her relationship with his family, where she seems to fit right in. I did not love the third act break up, which was an utter overreaction, but the rest of it was so good that it can be forgiven.
I received an advance review copy of this book for free and I'm leaving this review voluntarily.

This was my first cowboy romance and I really enjoyed it! The whole babysitting because of a PR issue was a bit silly, but I loved that Summer and Rhett were forced to be together. Their relationship was fun and the dual POV was great. I think the best part of this series is the (found) family! I'd totally recommend Chestnut Springs if you want to try cowboy romance. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!

Thank you so much to Netgalley and Sourcebooks for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Holy cow. Ok so this was my first Elsie Silver and I feel like I waited wayyyy to long to read her and I regret both of those choices. This book was so good. Even if small town and cowboy aren't your thing (they usually aren't mine)- trust me when I say this book is for you.
Rhett is a rodeo cowboy who is in need of a little image rehab and Summer is the daughter of his agent who has to babysit this whole grown adult male. Obviously he ends up having some opinions on that. While Rhett doesn't want Summer to entirely invade his life, it's really only because she's going to make his cold little heart come alive again. Summer went through something pretty traumatic with her previous partner and is in no mood for another romance in her life. That door is fully closed. Right? Wrong. Because what's going to happen is Rhett and all his messy life is going to breath new air into her world and it's going to be everything for her.
They do run into some snags along the way but they all felt realistic and the characters handled them in a way that didn't ruin the entire character. There is a lot of growth in this book and what I love is that they do it together. It's not just one perfect character and another that is an emotionally stunted idiot.
It's a hard fought HEA but it's also a beautiful one. This book made me an Elsie Silver fan for life.

what a surprising little delight this was!!! literally no complaints it had everything I wanted in a romance book. great plot, humor, romance and spice. elsie's writing sucks you in and keeps you addicted to turning the pages. can't wait to read her other series!!
tropes:
- frenemies to lovers
- grumpy x sunshine
- forced proximity
- one bed trope
- small town romance
- dual POV

If I’m being totally honest the reason I read this book is because the second book in the series caught my eye. I had a feeling going in this wasn’t going to be my favorite but I hate skipping around in a series 🤷🏻♀️
I had a hard time connecting with Summer and Rhett. I also have never been a fan of the whole bull riding thing (weird I know but we all have our things!). I will say, if any other man said the things Rhett said I would have been all for it 🥵 I did appreciate their banter, one bed trope, and some of the plot twists but overall just not a favorite. I’m dying to get to book 2 and hear more about Cade!

This book was SO GOOD! I couldn’t put it down.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️🌶️🌶️
I loved the dynamic between Summer & Rhett - as they went from enemies to lovers, trying to deny their chemistry. Add in “only one bed” & a small town/country living, and you get this unforgettable romance.
As a Canadian, I love reading novels from Canadian authors, and those that take place here too 🇨🇦
Read if you like:
⭐️ Reformed playboy
⭐️ Enemies to lovers
⭐️ Small town
⭐️ Only One Bed
⭐️ Cowboy/bull rider
⭐️ Dual POV/1st person
Can’t wait to read the rest of the series!
Take me back to Chestnut Springs 🌳
Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Bloom for a copy. All opinions are my own.

Never thought I had a cowboy kink but this series will get you hooked and wanting to buy cowboy boots and hat. Loved the book and the relationship with the brothers and dad.
