I loved this one so much! The slow burn was EVERYTHING and this was the perfect ending to such an amazing series🥹🍂
Juliet and Archer were so much fun to read about. I loved watching their relationship develop, and Archer’s story was so touching. The way Juliet understood him, and understood the reasons behind his past many actions was beautiful🥹
And Archer himself?! Easily one of my favorite characters😂 I loved everything about him, and his rivalry with the Mayor had me laughing SO much. The man had entirely too many ideas😂
And after following the Mayor’s mysterious dating life throughout the entire series, FINALLY finding out who he was dating was so much fun!!! I’ve been waiting for that reveal😂
Overall, this was such a sweet and satisfying ending to the series, with plenty of moments that had me swooning, kicking my feet, and giggling. I’m genuinely sad to say goodbye to these characters🥹🍂

BLURB: The good news? My five-year crush finally noticed me. The bad news? My dad noticed, too.
I told myself I’d outgrown my crush on cowboy Archer Kade—somewhere between braces, pimply skin, and writing his-name-plus-mine on every page of my diary.
Turns out, I was wrong.
I’m back from college for the fall, and that old crush is back, too. But this time, Archer’s not the young, ex-rodeo star I used to dream about. He’s a man making me laugh, walking me home, and trying to get my attention as much as I used to want his.
The only person who isn’t thrilled with this development?
My dad, the mayor of Autumn Ridge.
He says Archer’s trouble. I say I know he is—but I just can’t help myself. Especially when Archer’s suddenly everywhere. Helping with the fall festival. Running Horseshoe Holler Stables. Looking at me like I’m not that teenager who used to wear too much sparkly eyeshadow to catch his attention.
I left Autumn Ridge to get over him. This autumn, Archer might prove I never really did.
