CLICHES
She can't stand them.
Hates them.
Refuses to be one.
But...
Tessa Brooks is strong-willed, sassy, and determined, on the brink of dominating in the testosterone-fueled sport of horse racing. She’s spent her life avoiding the norm, staying true to herself to achieve her ultimate goals.
Her relationship with Jace Hitchen, her brother's best friend, just might be the biggest cliche of all. Over the years, he’s been her protector, her annoyance, her confidante, her crush. But giving in to what she's really wanted for the last ten years could be the very thing that destroys everything she's worked for and wanted. Can Tessa achieve her dreams for the future, but still hold on to the past?

I loved, loved, loved the premise of this book! The heroine being a jockey was so unique and unlike anything I've read before. Throw in the childhood friends to lovers trope and I had a feeling this one was going to be a winner!
I loved how the author built the relationship from childhood to adulthood. It was the perfect set up for the relationship and feelings developing between Jace and Tessa. As much as I sometimes hate drama I felt this book just needed something more. But it was a good story, don't get me wrong.
I will definitely look forward to reading more from this author.

CM Foss is a hopeless romantic with a love for the written word. When she was little, her mom would ration her books so she wouldn’t go through them too quickly. It didn’t matter, she would just re-read. She’s always been an avid equestrian, competing in the top levels of Three Day Eventing by age seventeen. CM now resides in Northern Virginia with her husband and kids where they own and operate their own equestrian business, as well as raising grass-fed, sustainable meats. She doesn’t have this thing people call “free time”, but she does spend a weird amount of time writing, reading, playing with her kids, milking goats, and drinking wine, while avoiding bananas at all costs. Other books by CM Foss include Shiver, Swoon, and City Beautiful.
