Bitter Love by Emily Goodwin is now live!
ABOUT THE BOOK
If there's one thing I know to be certain in life, it's to expect the unexpected. I never expected to become a teen mom or have to flee a toxic relationship years later. And I certainly never expected to go head-to-head with Jacob Harris, doctor of veterinary medicine, to prove I'm worthy of running the struggling rescue full of misfit animals I suddenly inherited.
Jacob is as smug as he is good looking, and I refuse to let that cocky grin or sharp jawline distract me. I won't go down without a fight, and this time, it'll be easy to stand my ground when my opponent is someone I can't stand--even though my body reacts whenever he's around. This time I'm not backing down no matter how much he gets under my skin.
But the more I push, the more he pulls...until I don't know what I'm more at a risk of losing: the rescue or my heart.

This is the second book in the series about the Harris families kids. It stars Jacob Harris who lives and works as a vet in the small town of Silver Ridge. It easily stands alone and you will see characters from previous books and the authors series but its just at family gatherings, they are not a big part of the story.
This story was really more like chik lit than a romance in my opinion. There is a romance but its an extremely slow burn romance. They don't even kiss until over 80% of the story has happened. And when it finally happens it was awesome and very hot but its so close to the end of the story that its a bit glossed over.
While its book two in the series I really felt that its about Josie, rather than Jacob Harris. And I absolutely adored her and loved this book so much. It was because of her and not Jacob. Even as part of the series I would expect more sibling time and interaction with the Harris parents but they are not really a big part of the story.
Josie is a single mom who at age 16 got pregnant and gave up her dreams for her daughter Everly. She had an extremely supportive family and they are a big part of her life and I loved seeing them in this story. They had a big part in this story and they had some very bittersweet and fun scenes in this book.
Josie is a city girl who was a country girl inside. She has an aunt who lives in Silver Ridge and her and Everly come for a visit where they find that they love it there and its where they are supposed to be. Her aunt Kim loves horses and has a horse rescue ranch and it becomes Josie's dream to save horses as well.
This dream is where Dr Jacob Harris enters her life and they have an adversarial relationship. It can be called hate to love romance but they never really hate each other but they also don't agree on much and Jacob is shall we say very bad with words and communication and he offends Josie a lot.
This story was more centered on the horse rescue and Josie and Everly's new life and them fitting into Silver Ridge. I would say the romance with Jacob was more of a forbidden relationship so Jacob fights against it very much because she owns his patients and he likes to keep personal and business separate. That is why its such a slow burn romance and things don't heat up until 80%. Honestly I would have much rather had them kiss sooner and seen them date more in the story. But when they finally did I was excited for them. Beyond that this was an entrancing story and I adored Josie so much. She is one tough cookie and she was an amazing mom to Everly.
I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
