About this listen

A steamy one-night-stand in the bathroom of a bar in Las Vegas after a world championship win? Yes, please.

Meeting him again months later, only to learn he's my newest competition? Not so much.

The weight of the legacy I carry is a constant tug in my mind, with the ghosts of the generations before me always whispering for me to push harder, train longer, be better.

In the eight seconds I have to ride, everything else falls away, and my sole focus is on doing what I do best.

I am Shooter Graham, consecutive three-time world champion bronc rider. No one has ever come close to taking the title since I've had it… until him.

Sterling Addams. The new cowboy in town with dark hair, eyes like honey, and a taste for me he likes to pretend he doesn't have.

He's green… but he's good. Too good.

Suddenly, the already heavy pressure I'm under multiplies tenfold. The need to beat him, the uncontrollable urge to put him in his place, becomes almost an obsession.

The question is, how far will I go to prove I'm number one?

Ashley James has done it again! Another stunning book. I was a bit hesitant to read this because I haven't fully enjoyed some of the past Cowboy stories I have read. But I love Ashley's writing so I decided to give this one a try. I'm so happy I did. Shooter & Sterling roped me in and I can't seem to let them go. Aaron Shedlock & Alex Kydd did an amazing job narrating Sterling & Shooter.

"His hand squeezes mine, and he nods. He feels like heaven wrapped around me, and the farther I get inside of him, the deeper I know I never want to leave here. Not this room or this town, per se, but this. Him."

Shooter was an a**hole, let’s just get that out of the way. It was a testament to Sterling’s personality that he was able to put up with his crap. But once we learn that Shooter is really mentally struggling, we understand why he is the way he is and he lets Sterling look after him 🥰
Narrators were perfect, both of them on my favourites list.
There were a lot of interesting side characters, setting up for future books. I will be continuing with the series to see what happens with them.

Interesting listen
