Silver Star by Lisa Swinton

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.

For me, a great story has to have characters that I both like (hopefully love!) and feel an emotional connection to.  That is what I found here.  Cal, Sara and little Stella were so likable!  The connection for me happened so naturally and easily.  I loved that.

The journey for Sara isn't so much an awakening as it is a re-awakening.  Her soul has just forgotten joy.  As Sara reacquaints herself with the core of who she once was, she finds her joy returning and it was so satisfying as a reader.  

I loved the gentle, developing romance even though I had to wait sooooooooooooo long for a kiss.  Good grief.  The build up!  It was killing me.  I loved the inclusion of music and how important it was to Sara.  And the ending?!  So good.  Yay for happily ever after endings!

This story was so good!  I loved every page of it.  đź’™

Content:  clean, kissing, one assault scene (almost rape)
