Silver Star by Lisa Swinton


Synopsis:

Her cowboy might just be another broken-heart ballad waiting to happen…

Country superstar Sara Silver has it all: fame, fortune, and a mantel full of Grammys. She also has a string of chart-topping heartbreak songs to go with them—all based on her miserable love life. Now her manager says Sara doesn’t sing with the heart she used to. If she doesn’t come up with another hit album soon, then her label will move on to the next big thing.

Sara heads to a ranch in Wyoming to get back to her country roots and rediscover herself. To keep the press away, she hides her identity and is determined to let nothing distract her. Then she meets Cal: tall, brooding, and all cowboy. Sara falls for Cal and the quiet ranch life, but with each song she writes her time there draws to a close.

Sara will have to choose between the country stars of Nashville or the glittering stars of a Wyoming sky…unless she can find a way to have both.

My Review: 5 Stars

Ever since her mom passed away, Sara Silver has been a shell of a human being. Going through the motions and doing whatever anyone tells her to do. She keeps to herself and refuses to let anyone get too close to her. She's no longer living... just existing.

Determined to rediscover herself, Sara loads up her old red truck and heads to Wyoming. She's determined to figure out the next step in her life and she can't afford any distractions. Enter in the handsome cowboy, Cal Jamieson and his adorable 4 year old daughter, Stella. 

After losing his wife 3 years ago, Cal is no stranger to heartache. When he first meets Sara, he thinks she's a towner.. just there visiting the ranch for a week. But when he discovers she's there for an undetermined amount of time, he doesn't know what to think. He does his best to stay away from her but the more time she spends with Stella, the harder it becomes to hold her at arms length. It takes some time, but they slowly start to fall in love. 

But when Sara feels her time on the ranch coming to an end, she will have to decide what she really wants. Can she see her life without Cal and Stella in it? Can she see her life without music in it? The answer to both questions is no... she can't. But how is she going to balance a family and her career? And will Cal even go for it? She's come this far and she refuses to let go. She'll just have to go all in and have faith that it will all work out the way it's meant to be and they'll be able to find their HEA. 

*dreamy sigh* 

I absolutely adored Sara, Cal and of course little Stella, who stole my heart from the very beginning! The setting and story line were perfect! I'm not going to lie... I was worried that drama would abound once Cal figured out who she was but I was pleasantly surprised with how that all worked out. It was seriously perfect and made me love Cal even more!

This is my very first book by Ms. Swinton and I can tell you it won't be my last! Can't wait to read her other books!

And we just cannot forget my casting! *dreamy sigh* I really do love these two! What do you think?
