if this would've been a little less instalove and didn't have an annoying third act break up, this could've been a much higher rating!!

i really liked both characters - angie, a nurse dealing with the shitty part of reality, and remi, "bad boy billionaire." they felt unrealistic at times and did have their moments where i was kinda like, please shut up??? but overall they were easy to root for and i really loved seeing them grow throughout the story.

the romance was ... there. it wasn't bad by any means but i was left wanting more from them. their dynamic was fun but tense and again, i found them easy to root for, but it was just missing something for me idk. not much spice so if that's not your thing then no worries.

so not bad but not great either, i did read it in less than two days though so that says something about it i think. i'm also just desperately trying to escape reality rn so maybe that had something to do with how fast i read it but anywhooooo ... i did enjoy this! i found out after the fact that it's the second book in a series but i didn't feel like i was missing anything in this so it's def more of an interconnected standalone situation.

thank you to netgalley & rising action publishing for the arc! all opinions are my own <3

📖 Book Review 📖 We’ve all probably told a little white lie when in those early stages of dating. Abby’s feeling overwhelmed by her father’s terminal illness and the pressure to speed up her timeline while he is still alive so her white lie is a little more extreme…extreme sports with a fear of heights to be exact. With the help of Remi, a wealthy entrepreneur hoping to buy her family’s farm, she is quite believable. Woven throughout this allowable rom com is a story of the depths of love and devotion to family and the hopes and ideals we carry from our family of origin. Extreme Romancing in Idaho is a wonderfully moving story full of fun and adventure!

Cute story, though the third act break-up was evident from the beginning of the book. The spice was minimal, so it's perfect for readers who are looking for a nice romance. Even though it was book 2, I couldn't really tell I missed the story from book 1. There were characters you obviously meet in the first book, but I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything while I was reading this one. I'm always looking for books set in Idaho for our readers, so it was great to find this series - we'll be looking at getting both this book and book one for our library.

Y'all this book was lovely.
Dual POV is always my favorite and she's a girl that has some curves. (After my own heart)
I enjoyed the drama and the banter and it left a woman WANTING the spice- we love a tease.
It was cute, it was sad, and it was funny- pick this one up.

I really enjoyed this book! The story was so well written and I really liked the main character and personal development!

I enjoyed reading this book so much. This is a small town, insta attraction, enemies to lovers, slow burn, he falls first, reformed playboy.

I was laughing so much – the comedic scenes were so good and well written.

The tension..oh god, the tension. The attraction. Their connection is magnetic, sexy, explosive.

I was not a fan of the lying part of the story, but then seeing it through Angi's eyes, and her parent's eyes made all the difference and made me appreciate the story even more.

The involvement of her parents is so cute and adorable, because we can see not only Angie falling in love with Remi but also her parents.

The development of their relationship and all the events that happen are very well done and the author manages to tie all loose ends and in the end everything makes sense, this is something that I really appreciate in a book.

This is a book that will make you think and reflect on the passing of time in your life and what do you want to do with it, it's a statement to conquer your fears but at the same time not losing yourself in the process.

Quotes:
"What I will promise is you'll want me to kiss you when i do it again"
" I was a black and white photo, and he injected color back into my life"

Remi es hijo de una familia adinerada que desea independizarse. Para lograrlo, debe convencer a los padres de Angie de que le vendan su granja. Para ello, finge ser otra persona y consigue un trabajo en la granja. Angie es enfermera y, como su padre está enfermo, debe hacerse cargo de la cosecha.

La idea me gustó, pero no la ejecución.

Bad boy billionaire meets small town sweetheart in this adventurous romance. Angie is 35, a NICU nurse and dealing with a dying parent when Remi comes to town. He’s tall, dark, handsome and trouble. Angie knows it’s in her best interest to stay away but she can’t help but be swept up in the adventure.

This one was a little unrealistic for me. I liked Angie but Remi’s character was just trying way too much hard to seem down to earth for a billionaire. I think I’m just not a billionaire romance kind of gal. I did like the idea of the book and the adventure aspects.
