Description

Can Love Bloom in the Dusty Trails of Drylanders' Hope?

Isabelle "Izzy" Montgomery has achieved everything she dreamed of - a high-powered career, big-city penthouse, and financial success. But when she's sent to tiny Drylanders' Hope, Texas to restructure a failing cattle ranch, her perfectly cultivated world turns upside down.

Ethan Walker, a ruggedly handsome widowed cowboy, is convinced this corporate city-slicker has come to destroy the community's beloved ranch and their entire way of life. He's prepared to fight for the traditions and faith that sustained his family for generations.

From their very first encounter, the spark between Izzy and Ethan cannot be denied. But it will take insurmountable courage to bridge the vast divide between their clashing worlds. As Izzy adapts to life on the ranch, an unexpected romance blossoms, challenging her to rethink her priorities.

Ethan is drawn to Izzy's tenacious spirit, but he refuses to risk his heart again. When corporate greed threatens to shatter their budding relationship and tear the community apart, Izzy and Ethan must confront their pasts and take a leap of faith. In a race against time, they'll need to rally the townsfolk and fight for not just their love, but the very future of Drylanders' Hope itself.

With a colorful supporting cast, plenty of downhome humor, and a swoon-worthy cowboy romance, Romancing the Drylander will inspire you to believe in the redemptive power of love.

Romancing The Drylander is the latest romance novella from author Remy Sinclair. It’s a clean cowboy romance perfect for anyone wanting a short and sweet romantic read.

Remy Sinclair has a really descriptive writing style and her vivid descriptions made the Texan setting come alive on the page. Our story is told through a third person dual POV narrative and it was nice to see both Izzy and Ethan’s stories explored. Ethan’s story was particularly interesting as we explore his grief after being widowed at a young age when his high school sweetheart lost her life following a cancer battle. I quickly warmed to Ethan’s character and it was great to see him grow over the course of the book from grumpy cowboy to someone open to love again. Izzy was another brilliant character and I enjoyed the exploration of her reconnecting with her roots and finding a true home in Drylanders' Hope. There is also a fantastic cast of supporting characters in the Drylanders' Hope community, all of whom were really interesting to read about.

As you can expect with a romance novella, this is a very fast-burn story and Izzy and Ethan’s relationship progresses very quickly over the course of a few weeks. We do still get a good amount of relationship building scenes though which was nice to see. I perhaps would have liked even more, just to get us really rooting for their relationship, and it would have been nice to also have an epilogue exploring their relationship later down the line.

There is a heavy Christian element to the story which I wasn’t expecting. Although as someone who isn’t particularly religious I clearly wasn’t the target audience, I’m sure this will appeal to anyone who likes to read clean romances with Christian messaging. This is a clean romance with nothing more than kisses.

Overall, Romancing The Drylander is a quick and easy read, perfect for anyone who wants a cowboy romance without any spice.

I received an arc from NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.

This book was a light easy read and one you can get through pretty quickly. A ranch is on the brink of bankruptcy and a City girl is tasked with bringing it back into the black.

The ranching community embraces her and welcomes her but her efforts may not be enough to save the ranch. The dilemma she is under may not keep her new found relationship afloat either.

Nice read and a message of Hope with a Christian perspective.
3.75 stars

This novella was a fast read. It had a city girl versus country ranch trope.
It was upbeat and a bit cliche, but good for a summer day on the beach.
It has heavy christian themes to it, good for those looking for a clean romance. The story is told through third person dual POV.
