My review:

The Bull Rider’s Fresh Start was a sweet and heart-touching romance. This was a new-to-me author, and I was pleasantly surprised by how well-written it was.  It was an emotionally clean romance of faith, hope, second chances, and forgiveness.  The main characters were easy to connect with and had realistic issues. 

Landon Chambers was a former bull rider who was a recovering pill addict.  Taking care of Adeline, a nine-month-old baby girl was not something he would have signed up for but with the death of his best friend and wife, Landon was the only option.  Landon met Kelsey Sinclair who was a Navy diver stationed in Hawaii at his best friend’s wedding.  After spending a night with her, he left the next morning with only a note.  Now he discovers he has a daughter, and he needs to prove to Kelsey he can be relied upon.  Before Kelsey must report back to base, they must come to an agreement about Adeline’s care.

Kelsey’s father had been an addict and he had let her down too many times.  She was afraid to trust Landon to take good care of Adeline when she returned to the Navy.  Landon wanted another chance with Kelsey but had to prove to her that he could be counted on.  It broke my heart knowing that Kelsey had to leave her baby and not see her for months.  Her concerns were reasonable, and I loved seeing Landon patiently reassuring her.  He knew he had made many mistakes in his past and had to earn her trust.  This was a beautiful story of second chances and faith.  I would certainly recommend reading it. 

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
