Okay, I can already tell I’m going to be obsessed with Shady Cove. 

Ridley is a true crime podcaster trying to do the lords work and help solve cold cases. She’s in Shady Cove following a story about a girl, Emerson, who was kidnapped and got away. It’s possibly tied to her twin sister’s disappearance. Colt is the sheriff of Shady Cove, and the brother to Emerson. He doesn’t want Ridley in town causing trouble. 

The beginning had enemies to lovers vibes but it was never hard core enemies. Mostly Colt trying to protect his sister, his town, and Ridley. But once he sees she’s in danger? All bets are off and he offers up his house for her to stay in?!?! I love that! 

You could feel their attraction to each other early on and they had great chemistry. Their romance felt like it was perfectly paced and they were so good for each other.

I had grand ideas about who the bad guy would be. I’m happy that I was wrong. It was a great twist and I was like ?!?!?!? When it happened. 

All around fantastic and I can’t wait to see what’s next!
