The Bull Rider's Secret by Jill Lynn Review

Happy Monday Everyone :)

I hope you all had a great weekend, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess.

For today's review, I'm excited to share a review for a book that's the third release in a series of which I'd already read and loved the first two books. I'd been anxiously awaiting getting to read the third book, and I was beyond belief excited when I got to advance read it before it's publication date. If you're interested, you can find my reviews of the first two books here and here

Which is the bigger mistake: falling for Jace again…or letting him go without a fight?

My Review:

Very rarely do I ever read an entire series where I enjoy each installment equally. Usually one or two of the books will stand out as my favorites, and the rest I'll find while still good, aren't quite as good as the others. However, I can honestly state that each book in Jill Lynn's Colorado Grooms series is amazing, and after I've now finished the third book, I can't even pick a favorite.

I was anxiously awaiting Mackenzie's story. I'd really enjoyed her as a character in the previous books, and I was expecting pretty great things from it. I'm happy to say that Jill Lynn has definitely delivered the amazing story that Mackenzie's character deserved, and I'm already looking forward to rereading this entire series.

Mackenzie's always been known as strong and unbreakable. She'll do whatever it takes to help her family, and to keep her family's dude ranch operational. However, this season, their may be one thing she's unable to do for the sake of her family's ranch. When her twin brother hires her ex-boyfriend, the only man Mackenzie ever truly loved, to help the family out during a transitional year with new staff, she's not sure that she's going to be able to handle it. Jace Hawke broke her heart when he left her without a proper goodbye, and she's never been able to allow herself to truly forgive him for doing so.

However, as Mackenzie and Jace put aside their differences and past hurts for the sake of Wilder ranch, feelings start to reemerge between the two of them. With a complicated past, and an uncertain future, Mackenzie's not sure she can truly trust her heart once again to the man who left it in a million pieces the first time around. With God's help, Mackenzie and Jace might just get their happily ever after after all.

With strong familial ties, witty and well developed characters, plots twists and turns, and faith at the core and center of the story, The Bull Rider's Secret was everything I was hoping for and more. It goes without saying that Jill Lynn has become a new favorite author of mine, and Wilder Ranch and its various occupants have become near and dear to my heart ever since I picked up the first book to read. I adore Jill Lynn's refreshing writing style, and the way her stories always captivate me right from start to finish. 

I couldn't have enjoyed this more, and Colorado Grooms is without a doubt my favorite Love Inspired series of all time. I can't wait to see what this author is going to have in store next for her readers, and I expect to see more great things from her in the future.

Final Rating: 5/5

Thanks so much to the author and the publisher for allowing me to advance read this!

I received a complimentary copy of this novel from the author in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I was not required to give a positive review.
