Cowboy fantasies. Oh boy, do I have them. I blame the shiny belt buckles and those chaps. Mother of pearl buttons, those chaps.
After getting dumped by my Not Future Husband, I’ve decided to spend the summer in Aspen exploring new adventures. First on the list is rugged, sexy rodeo champion Justin Garrison, who seems happy to accept the challenge.
What if I fall for the real man behind the fantasy?

Being the charming cowboy is an easy role to play. Whenever I’m on the back of a horse or riding a bull, everything’s simple, uncomplicated. Running my family’s ranch and trying to keep the past buried are a lot harder.
When my path crosses with a beautiful, feisty brunette at a rodeo, I’m not looking for more complications. Zoe Saragossa’s not a typical buckle bunny and I’m definitely not her type.
Can a city girl fall for a real cowboy?
Wild for You is a standalone, slow burn cowboy romance. It’s part of the Love with Altitude series of standalone romantic comedies set high in the Rocky Mountains.
4 “Yee haw!” stars 😉
“Before rodeos, I never thought a man lasting eight seconds could ever be a good thing.”
This is my first Daisy Prescott read and I had a really great time reading it. This is one of these reads that is easy to read filled with loveable characters and “feel real” story.
One of the things I loved is the setting in Aspen, Colorado. I’m back from three weeks of holiday and two were spent discovering Colorado so it brought back wonderful memories of majestic mountains, clean air and …cowboys.
Second thing to know: I’m a city girl meaning suits don’t make me dream but hot cowboys Oh Yes!
Justin was really a fine specimen of handsome rugged man living riding horses and broncos. Strong, silent, hard-working, handsome and gentleman. He could be the “smokeless” Marlboro model.
Third consideration: after watching “The Longest Ride” I really wanted to read about rodeo life.
How someone can be crazy enough to climb on the back of a demented bronco is beyond my understanding! But it’s fascinating nonetheless. I would never dare climbing on the back of a roped bronco so these guys riding unbound broncos must have balls of steel. That or they fell one time too many on the head.
Let’s get now on what I loved enormously in this book in no particular order:
–the friendship between the girls and the cocktails/rodeo nights out. They had that happy and funny banter you experience between true friends and it was so easy to relate and want in on their fun;
“You can’t take a girl to the rodeo, show her all those men in their Wranglers, then tell her to look but not touch. You’re all a bunch of mean girls.”
–Zoe’s fascination and starry eyes for BB “Belt Buckle”. Some will maybe find it naïve or irritating I found it endearing. She was like a little kid in a candy store. When she met Justin it nearly was lust induced coma. LOL
“And I’ve been wrong about cowboys. Belt bling might be my new favorite thing. A beacon, a lighthouse showing me the way through the darkness of the post-break up blues. Bigger than is polite for regular society, but not as obnoxious as a pro wrestling championship belt, the rodeo buckle is perfect. I feel like Goldilocks when she stumbled upon the bears’ house. Not too big, not too small. Just right. Or maybe it’s the men behind the buckle. Broad shoulders. Narrow waist. Biceps that can only be described as bulging. Speaking of bulges, the beacon of the buckle definitely draws my eyes to the obvious selling point for a pair of Wranglers.”
–The slow burn. If you are fans of slow burn romance this is one of theses. Oh there is plenty of attraction believe me but you’ll have to wait a very long time before having some action happening in the sack;
–The self-discovery. This is not only a sweet romance. It’s about finding who you are and reconnecting with the dreams you lost somewhere on the way of life. Zoe wanted to please he ex- boyfriend so much that she lost sight of her true self. She had to think about who she wanted to be and take a leap of faith.
It’s been a sweet romance happening in gorgeous Colorado filled with very endearing characters and handsome cowboys.
So if this is what you are looking for I would recommend it warmly!
