What do you do when you get approved for book 4 of a series you haven’t started yet, you grab the first ones and binge read them.
This book focuses on Cassie and Haden. Cassie is a rising country star snd Haden is the foreman of the ranch who also supports the local horse rescue charity.
I really enjoyed the storyline,. I enjoyed how Cassie developed throughout the book. I felt like her relationship with Haden makes her stronger and the ending was beautiful. I loved it.

Paisley Hope has quickly become one of my favourite authors with this series, and this latest book (book 4) might just have stolen top spot.
Wow, the chemistry and tension between Cassie and Haden from the off was absolute fire. When they got a second chance together, they were both already gone for each other.
The setting of Silver Pines Ranch, as well as all the supporting characters from the series just made this book so easy to read - it read it in a day but wanted it to last forever.
I love how Paisley Hope manages to combine scorching scenes with filth talking cowboys, with absolute swoon worthy romance. Bravo!
I cant wait for Asher and Olivia's book.
Thanks to Netgalley and Random House UK for providing me with an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

What a book!
This has quickly become my favourite in the series, which surprised me as I didn't hink anything would beat Cole and Ginger!
This book just hits and I was hooked from the first chapter!
I loved seeing Haden relationship with Penny and how she was a 'pseudo' parent for him.
Also, seeing how Horses can help with grief and anxiety.
Never seen a hotter game of Uno in my life!
I need the next book ASAP as I NEED more Asher.
Thank you Netgalley for this ARC 💛

We love therapy and we love discussing our boundaries. Even better when it’s all wrapped up in a sexy little cowboy romance. Haden and his wranglers can pick me up any day 😘 I will say, I'm assuming this is largely unedited. There seemed to be a lot of small errors like missing words or repeated sentence beginnings scattered throughout.

“You gonna use only the good notes?” I laugh through my tears. “Always.”
Haden and Cassie have my heart, I loved their story so much! This was heartfelt, emotional and swoon worthy all at once. The mental health issues were dealt with really well, as well as the impact/pressure of the music industry on artists.
I think this is my favourite in the Silver Pines series so far, it made me cry, laugh and swoon in all the right places. Haden and Cassie’s banter is 10/10 and the one thing I love about series like this is being able to read about all the characters from the previous books. Now I can’t wait for Asher and Olivia’s story!! Thank you so much to Evermore and NetGalley for the arc!

Oh I loved it so much! Honestly I would have shocked if I didn’t because I’m so in love with the entire Silver Pines world but Haden and Cassie were just perfection.
The tension, connection and spice between them was *chefs kiss* while the descriptions of Cassie’s anxiety and panic attacks had me near tears a few times. I loved how Haden was a little overprotective at times but ultimately puts Cassie and her choices above his own desires.
Look I sobbed my heart out and now I’m eagerly awaiting the final book to deliver the final blow.

4.5 stars

I had the honor of being an ARC reader for the lovely Ms. Paisley Hope for the fourth book in the Silver Pines Ranch series. Thank you!
Did I read the three previous books before starting this ARC? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely, yes.
Freeing the Wild was an amazing read! I really loved both Cassie and Haden’s characters. Cassie is witty and strong, while Haden is charming and incredibly caring. Their personalities complement each other so well, leading to great banter and undeniable chemistry. Beyond that, they shared a strong emotional connection, helping each other in ways they couldn’t help themselves. Both experienced growth and acceptance before diving into a full-on relationship, which made their journey even more rewarding.
“Cassie. Who’s making you cry like this?”
HADEN, OH MY LORDDDD. LIKE YES.
He’s definitely my favorite Silver Pines man…sorry, Cole.
I can’t wait for our final Not-Angle trio member: Olivia and Asher? I NEED IT.

Thank you so much for letting me read Freeing The Wild early.
What an absolutely beautiful book.
Cassie a country star visits her sister ivy (who we have already met in Training The Heart) but gets into a bit of trouble with a Wild horse, Haden runs to her rescue.
They get to know eachother when cassie returns for some time off touring.
The rest in history.

There's nothing I love more than a cowboy romance!!
They're my guilty pleasure and I absolutely loved this one. I want to live on Silver Pines ranch and ride a cowboy, I mean a horse...
Rising country star Cassie gets struck with a tragedy while performing. To give herself time to heal she decides to spend a month in Kentucky, where her mom and sister are. Haden is happy working on the ranch and tending to the horses, but then he gets swept up in a tornado named Cassie. They spend one night together and now, months later, are stuck living in cabins that are next to each other. The chemistry they felt isn't gone, but will they let it burn again, even knowing it'll only be temporary...
I really enjoyed myself.. I love how Cassie mental struggles were portrayed and the way the music Industry can pressure you. Both her and Haden had to fight with the expectations of others and in a way they really understood each other.
I honestly disliked Cassie at first, but I absolutely loved her by the end. She was such a compelling character, I loved seeing her journey of healing.
Haden was an amazing character, I fell in love with him so fast. The way he is with the horses and how he was there for Cassie was incredible.. He became her safe space and honestly the scene where he held her while she broke down was the reason I gave this a five star rating. The fact she felt safe with him to finally let go... those scenes will forever be my kryptonite.
And then the fact she wrote songs about him, it was absolutely adorable.
This was very much insta-lust, but I loved how it took them a little time to actually talk and fall back into each other again. It gave me the tension I desperately needed.
I loved the setting, it was so beautiful. I want to sit on that porch and enjoy that view and spend time with the horses ahhh. I also adored the rest of the characters, I love a found family aspect. I need to read the rest of series as soon as possible!!
P. S. While I really liked the spicy scenes and there were quite a few of them, can we please retire the term milking from them. It makes me cringe so hard whenever I read it..

I was lucky enough to receive an Advanced Review Copy of Freeing the Wild, the fourth installment in the Silver Pines series by Paisley Hope.
We journey back to the Silver Pines Ranch in this newest edition, with the return of all the old favourites and an introduction to Cassie, a new character who has her own hidden demons to face.
Alongside Haden, our smiley, hot to boot cowboy, who although previously introduced in the prior installments, is still a bit of an unknown.
Together, they must journey through anxiety, PTSD and deep seated parental trauma (which the author has covered with great care and respect), to find eachother and themselves.
Fixed on keeping her distance, despite living in the cabin next door, Cassie is left with decisions to make, which may just break hearts in the process.
A heartwarming read, that felt like a welcome home from the Ashby/Silver Pines family, that will have you smiling, feeling a mixture of emotions and fanning yourself from the fairly high levels of spice! Uno in a snowstorm has never sounded so fun...
Although a 4 star read, there were aspects of this book and the character of Cassie, that I found frustrating at times, however, I cannot wait to dive into the next installment of this series, when the time comes.
Tropes covered:
🏠 Forced Proximity
🤠 Cowboy/Small Town Romance
🔥 Slow burn/Second Chances
🌶 SPICE!

She did it again! Oh my god Paisley Hope is one of my absolute favourite all time authors ever like SO GOOD! Cole will forever be my favourite mmc no one can replace him but this was pretty close! It checked all the boxes with the tropes One night in his truck, Rising country music star, Snowed in / one bed WE LOVE A ONE BED! Forced proximity, He’s her muse SWOON and of course Filthy-talking cowboy I honestly can’t get enough of this series I don’t want it to end!

Ahhh, as I’ve said time and time again — this woman could write her shopping list and I’d still buy it. I’m so grateful for this ARC, because I have loved every single book I’ve read by Paisley.
I was sold straight away: a cowboy and a country star? My two favorite things rolled into one delicious, spicy read by the queen of spice herself. I was a little worried it wouldn’t top my absolute love for Ginger & Cole’s book, but wow — it absolutely did. No messing around — we’re thrown straight into the sexual tension, chemistry, and banter.
I also just adore close-knit family reads. They’re so wholesome, and it’s always a treat getting to see all the characters from the previous books come together again.
Tropes & vibes:
🤠 One night in his truck
🎤 Rising country music star
❄️ Snowed in / one bed
🏕️ Forced proximity
🎶 He’s her muse
🔥 Filthy-talking cowboy

This book was amazing, sweet and heartfelt. There’s some triggers which are listed; I don’t usually feel any particular way when characters have any mental health issues, but I felt the feelssss intended to be felt. The fmc was a singer (also a sassy queen) but had a traumatic event happen at one of her shows. Her recovery at Silver Pines was the plot! but i absolutely loved the dynamics between the fmc & MMC.
I’m all for a slow burn, but the ‘one night stand’ really was a refreshing story!
Definitely recommend to anyone wanting a cowboy & singer romance, one night stand to lovers over a time period!
Thank you for the ARC, Paisley is one of my fav authors, hits & never misses! 🎯

Please read the triggers of this book as with anxiety myself I able to read this but reading someone else’s experiences can be triggering to others! So be careful 💕
When I tell you I avoid the rockstar/Singer trope at all costs as it’s just something that doesn’t appeal to me so I was very sceptical going into this but knew I had to read it because I’m obsessed with the rest of the books in the Silver Pines series!
IT. DID. NOT. DISAPPOINTED. 👏🏼 👏🏼
Never been more happy to be proven wrong about something and I’m glad it was this book. Honestly, if you haven’t started this series yet you need to because you are missing out. I am smitten by Haden and Cassie.
The sass in this book alongside the banter was 10/10. Haden found his match with Cassie and I couldn’t love them more! Loved the relationship between Haden and Penny! 🥺
Haden being there for Cassie when she struggles with her mental health was amazing. He didn’t pressure her to feel okay but instead supported her with her emotions 🤍
The fact we are seeing what the past characters are doing and how they’re getting along is everything! It really adds to the story in my opinion!

“Tell me something real.” 🩷
I absolutely ATE this book up and it has surpassed my previous favourite duo of Cece and Nash by a mile! This is now currently my favourite book in the series.
Cassie, a country singer songwriter and Haden, a ranch worker at Silver Pines have my whole heart 🩷
I knew from the offset that this was going to be a 5 star read for me.
When the smut started in the first few chapters I knew I was going to be in for a raunchy ride and boy oh boy, I was not disappointed. Paisley knows how to lay it on thick and my LAWD it was hot. Being called ‘princess’, whilst calling the hunky sex god ‘cowboy’? Sign me up. LOVED these couple nicknames, super realistic and not at all icky like a lot of spicy books I’ve previously read.
I loved the rawness of Cassie’s mental struggles being explored and how she came out the better side by the end and I absolutely ate up the way Haden was completely besotted by this girl that he would move mountains for if he were given the chance.
Such a feel good, easy read and I was SAT the entire time. Absolutely no notes. Perfection.
Thank you so much to my home girl Paisley and to NetGalley for the e-ARC. Appreciated as always 🥹 now GIVE ME OLIVIA AND ASHER 🔥😮💨

Freeing the Wild by Paisley Hope was such a captivating read! I absolutely adored the characters and found myself completely swept away by the world-building. The story kept me hooked from beginning to end, and I really enjoyed the journey. It was almost perfect, just missing that tiny something extra for a full five stars, but definitely a fantastic book I'd highly recommend!

5 stars!!!
I love this series with my whole heart, and this book was soo good too, but I didn’t expect anything else. I loved reading about the other couples from the earlier books again, and I’m beyond excited for Olivia and Asher’s book!
Cassie and Haden were meant for each other, and I loved their dynamic and the chemistry they definitely had from the start. I don’t want to spoil anything so that’s all I’m gonna say: go read this book!

This was gorgeous, quite perfect in all its loveliness.
The books had romance and care and kindness as Hayden and Cassie work out who they are and who they might be to each other. The backdrop is ranch land and beautiful landscapes that seem to captivate. The small town life flows through the book and the the horses. They are part of the calmness and therapy that grounds the characters but also the plot couldn’t work without their presence. The music is flowing and the words are very passionate and move the plot on. There is a healthy dose of sexy time too.

Thank you to Paisley Hope, Random House UK / Cornerstone and Net Galley for allowing me access to this book as an advance reader copy (ARC).
I absolutely love the Silver Pines series. I love seeing characters from previous books return and help form a sense of family (one I would love to be a part of) the camaraderie and big love shared in the Silver Pines team is just incredible to read!
This book has a special place in my heart, the relationship between Cassie and Haden is just top notch, not only do they have an instant connection, and physical attraction, they are both there for each other through the real life ups and downs. When dealing with life’s hurdles, Cassie and Hayden know how to support each other in the ways that it matters!
“Tell me something real”
I won’t forget this book, and look forward to the next chapter in the Silver Pines story!

I don’t even know where to start with this. All I can say is, I loved it so much! I had high hopes for this story considering I adored the first three books in the series and Freeing the Wild did not disappoint. I love the characters and continue to get sucked into the silver pines world. I cried, laughed and squealed throughout this book and the Uno scene was chefs kiss. Can’t wait to buy the physical book!
