Riding the High (aka my soul book)

If you’ve read the previous two books in the Silverpines series, then you, just the same as me have been DYING to get your greedy reading hands on Cole & Gingers story. If you’ve not read any of them yet, well you’re in for a treat.

After being friends for years, Cole and Ginger’s (not that unexpected) drunken vegas marriage causes
problems for Cole as the newly appointed sheriff, and congressman’s daughter, Ginger.
Will their plan to pretend really work? Or will years of buried feelings win?

I was Laughing, smiling, crying, swooning and kicking my feet throughout. I’m not sure that I have words big enough to describe all the ways this book made me feel. But wow, did it make me feel. This is why I love reading.

I love this series. I love this book, and I love this couple with my entire soul. I will scream and shout about it forever, (buckle up). It’s comfort, family, warmth, it’s a safe place. It’s fun, wholesome and fiery. It tackles real feelings and it’s the perfect escape.

The love in this story was woven so clearly and beautifully in every page, I was utterly tangled within these pages and I never want to leave.
I adore Ginger & Cole as I knew I would, but my highlight was Gingers relationship with Mabel. THE sweetest, purest thing I ever did read. I could talk about them all forever.

Cole is hard working, dedicated to his daughter, family and job. He’s overprotective and jealous, (my favourite combination). He’s an all round green flag of a man. He listens and he see’s ginger, and I mean really see’s her.

Ginger is a strong, funny and caring powerhouse of a woman, friend, partner and daughter. I loved really seeing Ginger throughout this book, her vulnerable side was lovely and so relatable. Anyone would be lucky to have a Ginger on their side.

My favourite thing about Cole and Ginger - the way they always step up for one another no matter what, even before their marriage. Without condition.

Paisley Hope, the woman you are!! Thank you for creating this small town filled with a bar owner ex-hockey player, a grumpy cowboy rancher and sheriff Law Daddy, and all the strong, bad ass women. You are the coolest.

10/10, no notes. Except can I have more of Ginger & Cole? Can I have the next 2 books right now?? Pretty please!

I am so thankful to receive this arc!!

I adore a cowboy romance and this has to be one of my favourites so far! Cowboy/ sheriff, drunken marriage and close proximity. You don’t just see Ginger fall in love with Cade but with Mabes as well.

Cade is so fiercely protective of his girls, he cares so deeply for both of them even if he does try to fight his feelings for Ginger.

This whole book had me falling in love with them as a couple and as a family. To top it all off Cade as a dad had me glued to this book.

I simply cannot get enough of Paisley Hope and Silver Pines AHHHH!! 🤠👏🏻

Firstly I want to say a huge thank you to NetGalley, Random House and Paisley for accepting me for this ARC - my first ever one. I’m beyond grateful and can’t believe I got to read this early! 🥹

Right let’s get into it…

After getting glimpses of Cole and Ginger in the first two books of the series I couldn’t wait to get their story. I’ll admit that After Training the Heart I didn’t think they could come close to how Wade and Ivy made me feel… but THIS. BOOK. SLAPPED. I absolutely adored both of them and I just don’t think Paisley is capable of writing a bad character, they hit every single time! I laughed, I cried and I was definitely sweating on a fair few occasions 🥵

Ahhhh I loved it and I need more Silver Pines right now! I wonder who’s next 👀 Ginger’s sister Cassie? Olivia and the guy that works with Nash? Who cares, if/when it drops I’m going to eat it up no matter what 👏🏻

LOVE LOVE LOVE. I am OBSESSED with this one. Paisley Hope is the next big thing in romance mark my words. This whole series has been great but this last one was just a step above. I have always had a soft spot for a good single dad romance but ugggghhhhh Law Daddy can GET IT
100000 stars no notes.

What a great read. This book is sexy, and full of friendship and cute six year old girls who want to make mud pies and wear pretty dresses. This book is full of hope, there is a bit of intrigue and a nasty ex wife, but also fabulous friends, and a wedding and birth which made the book fly by. The epilogue was a great last few chapters that just made the whole book work.

WOW PAISLEY HOPE DOES IT AGAIN. I knew Cole and Ginger's story was going to be a good one and this did not disappoint - incredibly steamy, but also heartwarming and with no major third act conflict (we love to see it). Gorgeously written as always and the perfect third instalment to the Silver Pines series. Absolutely fantastic!

This book was everything I hoped it would be! I have been anticipating Ginger and Cole’s story after loving the previous two books in this series and this didn’t disappoint!
Mable was an adorable character in the book and I loved watching gingers relationship with her blossom. As a step mum myself this was a highlight of the book for me.
What I love about Paisleys writing is how she manages to find the perfect balance between spice, plot and creating the most lovable characters. This series has been an absolute masterpiece.

I’ve been waiting for Cole and ginger’s story since I started this series and it did not disappoint. It was fun, flirty, these two had great chemistry and sexual tension. Cole went from being a sweetheart to having a very dirty mouth. ginger gave it to him just as good with her sassy comebacks and teasing. I loved watching the relationship between ginger and Mabel blossom and the little team of 3 they created. I just adored being back in silver pines with the Ashby family and seeing all the characters again.

the only things I didn’t love were that at times it felt similar/reminded me of another popular small town, single dad romance I’ve read. although in general I’m just not the biggest single parent trope fan and towards the end some things did overlap with the previous books but this is just me being picky. I still really enjoyed this book and cannot wait to continue the series!!

thank you to NetGalley & Paisley Hope for the arc 🫶🏻

tropes:
- sheriff x teacher
- single dad
- best friends brother
- accidental vegas marriage
- “my wife”
- dual pov

Having read the two previous books in the series, I knew Cole and Ginger had some sizzling tension, did I think it would end up like this?! Absolutely not!

I was blown away by the story, a cheeky drunken wedding in Vegas forcing them to face their feelings - yes please! It was the perfect beginning to the budding romance between them.

It was so lovely to see how their relationship developed, and to see Ginger develop as a character too rather than the slightly wild best friend to the main character who has so much depth and love to give, it’s simply beautiful.

Cole is everything a MMC should be (*swoon* phwooooooar! what a man?!), not only is he a cowboy, he’s the sheriff, and a doting dad? Swoon, just swoon.

I have been WAITING to read this next book. I don’t think I have requested a book quicker than I did this one. Ginger and Cole’s story has been my most anticipated book out of all of them. I have loved the snippets we’ve seen through the other books and was so excited to get to read their story.

I loved their relationship and really enjoyed all of the flashbacks so that we really understood their history. Ginger and Mabel’s relationship was just adorable and I always found myself rooting for them. Cole as a dad was just perfection though!

Although I enjoyed this book, I didn’t think there was as much depth as the storylines in Ivy and Wade’s book. I do wish we saw a little more interaction between Ginger and her friends and Cole and his family. I also thought we’d get more of Granny Dan, as she was such a character at the beginning of the first book. These are only minor points though.

I absolutely loved this book. Ginger and Cole’s relationship (along with Mabes) may be my favourite of the series. The way it was written, you can tell that they’re in their own world and it’s always been each other for them both.

I am so grateful to have received all of these as arcs and I’m so glad I requested the first one when I saw it. What a fantastic series!

Returning to the world of Paisley Hope's "Riding the High" feels like reuniting with old friends. The characters are so familiar, it's as if we've never left their side. This latest installment brings back all the charm, warmth, and excitement that we get from small town lives and Im glad this installment was all about Ginger.

Straight away it all feels familiar, in a good way. Comfortable and with characters where you just want thinks to work out well for. Cole, Mable and Ginger make a perfect trio to follow through life and enjoy the way they approach some challenges - even Mable is a good example to us all on how to deal with things.

Cole as the OG F**kboy finally acknowledging and owning his feels feels more modern man that what we're used to, and his selflessness makes him even more attractive - without Ginger even knowing it. When the whole group take a trip to Vegas everything changes - and its chaotic enough to really match the personalities we've come to expect from Ginger and Cole - Id have been disappointed if it went differently!

The plot is engaging and filled with twists that keep you thinking will they wont they even though you know its end game for them; Yet, it's the moments of quiet reflection and heartfelt interactions, the brutal honesty of their thoughts and fears that truly shine. The relationships between the characters are beautifully developed, making you root for their happiness and success.

I am dying to know how much is in Mables College fund though - We see all the money go in but never know how much is in there. Trival thought but the time we spend 'watching' someone put money in the jar makes me feel like i have a right to know!

It was us. We were the tornado.

🌻 Accidental Marriage
🌻 Best friends brother
🌻 Single dad x nanny
🌻 Small town romance
🌻 Secret friends to lovers

In the first two books we see Cole and Ginger’s relationship from the outside and how snarky they are with their love/hate relationship. I wish we’d got to see more of that before we learnt of the softer side they share for each other.

But half way in, I was hooked and didn’t stop until I was finished. Cole and Ginger’s need for each other, Gingers blossoming relationship with Mabel. Cole being all sweet and mushy seeing them together. Their little team and family falling into place was an absolute joy to read.

I did feel that we missed out on the actual ‘accidental marriage’ part of the plot. The Vegas plot seemed rather short lived, they wake up one day and find they got married while drunk and then go home. I want juicy details of their drunk escapades, to getting married and even their first time together 🤭🌶️

There’s a lot of different family situations explored and how it affects each individual. Reconciliation was also brushed upon.

I really felt for Cole as feel nobody really knew his true self other than Ginger, he was considered playboy or sheriff even by his family and friends who thought he was a non-commitment type guy. Cole’s revenge era was HOT, that backwards baseball cap, law daddy was doing bits🥵

Ginger is strong, fierce and sassy. Never one to back down from a challenge. I enjoyed the moment she stopped letting her dad make her feel small and her maturity and willingness to accept his apology and to improve their relationship. I loved her Italian family and sharing their roots with Mabel, was so sweet.

But together, even as friends, they know each other down to every last flaw and I loved that. The Brooklyn 99 references has been laughing out loud and I enjoyed the realism it bought to the book! They’ve always had each others back or know when something is wrong, their communication was strong enough to avoid the third act breakup that I thought was coming 🤣

Mabel was a fantastic character in this book, she is prominent in Cole’s life (obviously as his daughter) and we’re shown how important she is throughout, never forgotten and always considered when decisions are made. She’s an absolute gem, always brutally honest and has some amazing lines! The funniest and sweetest little girl.

I also loved the involvement of the previous book characters and seeing how their stories have grown and developed 🫶🏼

Both Cole and Ginger had some great lines and inner monologues that had been laughing out loud or feeling all mushy!

Cole - “Stunning, tempting, exquisite, sinful, mine.”
“Do you drip down your thighs like this for all your friends?”
“Now, I want to taste my wife,”

Ginger - *on a scale of one to ten—with one being a responsible adult and ten being a total fucking slut for Cole Ashby—I’m sitting at about a one hundred and one*
*Hot Sheriff Daddy, big dick energy*
“You’re always the only thing I see, Cole”

STUNNING. OUTSTANDING. OBSESSED.
Every book in this series gets better and better and DAMN I did not think I had a thing for police officers but Cole had proved me wrong! I loved him and Ginger, they were so cute together and just darn right sexy. Loved every second!

I adored this book so much! The relationship development was soooo good, and I love how fiercely protective Cold and Ginger are over each other. I love the friendship that Ginger has with Coles daughter, and I love that she is close with his entire family. I love the Not Angles, and their friendship is what everyone needs in their life 🫶 This book is so perfect for fans of small time romance, and series's like the chestnut springs series ❤️

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for granting me an arc. I have loved this series so far, and Riding the high was just as good as books one and two. I loved Cole and Ginger so much I loved their relationship the banter was great and they were best friends to lovers, they had such good chemistry! I loved the mix of the single dad and fake marriage trope I think that they were done very well. I feel there was much more stakes in this book. I loved Mabel I thought she was adorable and the steamy scenes oh my god they were soooo good I think the best steamy scenes in the series so far! I had such a great time with this book and I can’t wait for the series to continue and see who the next couple is! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ please pick up this series if you love chestnut springs and Elise silver this will be be your new favourite small town romance series! Paisley Hope has become a new favourite author for me!

WOAH. That was just 🥵🥵. I am so beyond grateful to have received an ARC for this book. Anyone who knows me knows how much I love Paisleys books and this one did not disappoint (even with it being friends to lovers)!! I absolutely adore the relationship of Cole and Ginger from the very beginning you could feel the tension between them and I loved it so much!! I loved how it built up throughout the book too. Absolutely loved the accidental marriage part of this book and it really was perfect for these characters. Mabel is an absolute little angel and the sweetest child ever I literally couldn’t get enough of her! Let’s just say the handcuffs 🥵 I adored that we got to see the characters from the others books and loved that we got to see snippets of their lives too!! I will literally devour anything that Paisley writes!

I’ve been waiting for Cole and Ginger since Holding The Reins and they did not dissapoint.
Feisty FMC? Check.
Single Dad Sherrif aka Law Daddy? Check
Best friends brother but also secretly your. best friend too who you’ve been pining for since you were a teen? Double Check
Oh and a secret wedding! Check check check!!

The slow sideline banter of these two has been building for two books and somehow it only got better and better. Cole and Ginger have danced around each other for years, in public they are snarky but In private they are each others confidants and partners in crime. One drunken night in Vegas it comes to a head with them getting married and dealing the deal. To avoid public scandal they decide to keep it on the DL until the end of summer when they assume they can secretly divorce. Only fate has other plans for them.

I’m such a fan of the way Paisley Hope is able to blend the most sweet sentimental beautiful relationships with some of the most toe curlingly hot spice!

5⭐️ easily. Cole and Ginger have taken top spot in Silver Pines.
🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️


Thank you to Net Galley, Random House and Paisley Hope for the advanced copy.

🌶🌶🌶 - muuuuuch spicier than a korma 🥵

Q - I couldn't decide between the pink or blue text edit - which one do you prefer? 🩷💙

Right, cuff yourselves in, there's a new Sherrif in town! 👮‍♂️🥵

Before I get stuck in, thank you so much to Netgalley & Random House UK, Cornerstone | Penguin for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for honest feedback!

I could share SO many quotes, but I don't want to spoil anything (or get in trouble from Instagram) 🤭

If you're looking for a forbidden romance, forced proximity through a drunken night that ends in marriage with some steamy small town cowboy / sherrif romance thrown in, THIS is gonna be the book for you!  🥵

Oh my DAYS, this book?! 💜 I loved Nash & Cece's story and I really enjoyed Wade & Ivy's story, but Cole & Ginger's story is officially my favourite! 🫶🏻 The banter, the slow(ish) burn, the friendship, the spice - ugh, everything! 🌶 It's up there as one of my favourite romance novels 🥹🩷 I was definitely blushing whilst I was reading this 🤭

I loved hearing from Mama Jo, Nash, Cece, Wade, Ivy, Liv & Papa Dean again, but the real star of the show was Mabel! 🎀 She's SUCH a wee sweetheart & adds a wee bit of innocence to the story.

The ending definitely made me a wee bit teary but warm & fuzzy inside when I was reading it 🥹

Riding the High will train your heart to hold the reins and just ride the high - this is so cheesy, I may delete it later 🤣 If you know, you know, Silver Pines friends 🤭

I loved everything about it (apart from Brent & Gemma 🫠 I'll say no more on those meanies) and highly, highly recommend it!

Ginger & Cole ❤️
🌶️🌶️🌶️. 5
Paisley Hope is definitely in my top 5 authors! Her books just get better and better. And every book I've read has been ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for me.
I was so looking forward to reading Ginger & Cole's book and it did not dissapoint! Daddy Cole is just 🥵
I absolutely loved the relationship between both Ginger & Cole and Ginger & Mabel and obviously the relationship all 3 of them have. Mabel is just the cutest kid!
This book had everything I love from banter and spice to really cute heartwarming moments. There is also no third act breakup which is a bonus!
It's great we get to see snippets of everyone else's lives. From Cece & Nashs wedding to Ivy & Wade having their baby 🥰
The epilogue is set 7 years later which I really appreciate.
I will 100% be recommending this author to anyone who will listen! And I am so looking forward to seeing what's next.
Beyond grateful for the opportunity to receive and ARC for this. Thank you!

Thank you Paisley Hope for blessing us with Sheriff Cole Ashby better knows as Law Daddy.
Silver Pines Ranch has made it to my S-tier cowboy romance series’ and some of my favourites to recommend. When I heard this was Ginger’s book and how our impulsive queen married her best friend’s brother drunk in Vegas- I just knew this was going to be a great one. Ginger’s relationship with Mabel was so adorable. I loved their little gardening dates and OMG Cole and his daughter bloody precious. For those who need further convincing to read this novel we have: forced proximity, friends to lovers, accidental marriage of convenience AND single dad x nanny. These are like all of my favourite things. I read this book in a sitting because I loved it so much. I cannot recommend it enough and I can’t wait to see what else Paisley Hope comes up with!!!
