Sugar, Spice, and Cowgirl Nice
Awesome story with great characters that gives you all the feels from beginning to end
This was such a sweet and beautiful story. I really liked all the characters as they were really well written this book took me back to my own first love. I really enjoyed it overall
This book is a coming of age story about two teenagers falling in love and all the angst that goes along with it. Rylee and Sawyer are very cute together and very committed to each other. Rylee is keeping a secret from her parents that threatens to blow up in her face if they find out. I enjoyed the story but the formatting and editing leave alot to be desired and that is the only reason for the four stars. The long sentences of words strung together with no spaces made it very hard to read. I will definitely read a book by this author again.
Rylee is headed to Texas to visit her Nana because her grandpa just passed. Her family decides to move there for a fresh start. After meeting some of the other teens at school and making friends, she gets hooked on horses and the rodeo. There may also be a new love occurring.
This book is perfect for teens and who are into popular songs, teenage talk, horses, and growing up. This one is one long ride so get ready to read for a couple of nights for sure. It makes you feel young and you learn lots of new words.
I recommend this book to teens who think are they are invisible. There’s a great lesson to be learned from the characters – when you find your right crowd, things fall into place. Good luck to teens!
A good inspirational high school story about growing up and discovering yourself. I liked the story but it was difficult to read I got this through KU and the format was messed up with words all together or odd paragraphs etc making it very hard to get into.
The story itself wasn’t bad but I couldn’t really get into the characters themselves I just wasn’t a huge fan of the main character for some reason.
4 out of 5 stars

I was so excited to see a horse book with characters that are well written. Rylee is sweet girl who has been sheltered most of her life . Her mother is over protective and she is a little naive . When she starts with the horses you really see her blossom and come into her own . She really grew as a character . Sawyer is sweet and a gentleman . He really wants Rylee to become her own person . They are so cute when they are together . With the help of her friends she will be transformed . These characters are so well written and you will love each and everyone of them .
This book really intrigued me , when I started reading it, I got all the feels . I felt like it was taking me back to childhood . Being that awkward teen that would rather read then be around people . The author has a good grasp on the main characters . There is lots of laughs and a few tears through out this book . The characters were well written and you can connect with them easily . There were a few spots that i feel that fell flat and where the characters just didn’t really feel right , I felt that it kind of dragged just a little . Over all i really did enjoy this coming of age story and the fact it had horses in it mad me very happy. So if you want a good story of one finding oneself through laughter and tears and just maybe fall in love with the boy next door this is the story for you . Check it out you won’t be disappointed .
