BOOKWORM REVIEW: Rushed by Aurora Rose Reynolds


RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
STEAM: πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯.5

This read takes you on a wonderful journey with two strangers brought together by fate. You get romance, drama, spice, snark, and even a little bit of suspense.

Cybil was supposed to be on a couples retreat with her boyfriend. Correction: he is now her *ex-boyfriend.* After he broke up with her with the whole "it's me, not you" spiel, Cybil was stuck with a nonrefundable trip to Montana with a bunch of couples.

Not before she has a run-in with the charming Tanner only to turn him down for being an inconsiderate jerk. It turns out that she will meet him again...as her guide at the wilderness retreat, and since she's joining the trip solo, he's also been assigned to her partner. Will Tanner be the key to fixing Cybil's broken heart?

I loved Cybil and Tanner's meet-cute. Their banter just makes for an entertaining introduction that will have you impatiently anticipating the moment they both realize they are meant to be. Until then, Aurora Rose Reynolds builds the tension through their snarky exchanges and interesting adventures during the retreat.

Their relationship was definitely a slow burn (despite the insta-lust/love), but the pay-off was a hot, sizzling fire. 

I love the interactions not just between the main characters, but the shenanigans of their fellow campers were entertaining also. There was a moment of action/suspense that was a nice shot of adrenaline during the read. There was a little bit of a lull after the retreat was over. It does pick up again during the climax, and it was great from there, but the slow pace did take me out of the story a bit.

The ensemble of characters is fantastic. This works well as a standalone, but I am looking forward to the other stories. I especially would love to see love's retribution on Blake for being a ninny.

ABOUT THE BOOK

New York Times and USA Today bestseller Aurora Rose Reynolds turns up the heat in this tale of new adventures, dangerous decisions, and undeniable attraction.

Cybil is the queen of bad timing. First, her fiancΓ© breaks up with her days before their wedding. Next, she’s stuck going on a couples retreat in the Montana wilderness alone. And worst of all, now she’s fighting a growing attraction to the wilderness retreat’s rugged owner, Tanner.

Tanner has built his wilderness adventure service on a few key principles: never take unnecessary risks, never put anyone’s life in danger—and never, ever sleep with a client. The arrival of a beautiful new visitor, however, might mean bending the rules.

Two people looking for anything but romance may have just bumped into their soul mates. In the Montana wilds, any misstep can spell danger. Cybil and Tanner just have to decide if they’re brave enough to face their next adventure.
