Book Description
She’s a fiery, smart-mouthed city girl and world-class swimmer – Small town intolerant, pepper-averse and allergic to unsolicited cowboy charm – about as cuddly as a cactus.
She looks about ready to set me on fire instead of saying hello.
It’s adorable. It’s a challenge and I accept.
Because I live for the challenge. Heck, the Rodeo world calls me the main event.
The town calls me trouble, but they don’t know my big ‘ol smile, hides a past that's got me rooted to this land.
Mia might be here by mistake and can’t seem to leave my town soon enough.
Too bad fate keeps shoving us into the kind of situations that make it real damn hard to keep a straight face or keep my hands off her.
She keeps telling me this is temporary. That she’s leaving.
But I’m a man of action.
I keep showing her exactly why she should stay.
About Ellie Wilder
Ellie Wilder lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, with her outrageously sassy daughter (wonder where she gets that from?), one overly dramatic bulldog with undeniable main-character energy, and a very patient husband who lovingly refers to the shirtless cowboy trailers she makes on TikTok as cowboy porn—and honestly, he’s not wrong.
After spending the last decade fully committed to her dirty-mouthed, pulse-racing, action-taking cowboy era, Ellie finally did what every romance-loving woman should: she wrote the damn books and turned them into a series readers can’t quit.
She writes small-town cowboy romances packed with laugh-out-loud family chaos, fierce heroines who give as good as they get, and rough-around-the-edges men with big hearts, bigger hands, and a habit of keeping readers up past 2am for “just one more chapter”.
Her books are a cocktail of steam, sass, and side-splitting comedic relief. Expect sizzling tension, filthy-sweet devotion, banter that bites, and kisses that linger long after the final page.
If you like your romance hot, hilarious, heartfelt and impossible to put down, then saddle up sugar—there’s always room for one more at Portree Hill Ranch.
Ellie Wilder—making cowboy porn classy since forever.
Warning: May cause unrealistic cowboy expectations and sudden urges to move to a Ranch.
My Thoughts
Wild Love, Cowboy by Ellie Wilder is such a fun, small-town romance that immediately pulls you in with a chaotic and charming meet-cute. The story kicks off with Mia, a fiery, smart-mouthed city girl and world-class swimmer, landing in the right town but the wrong state. She’s small-town intolerant and allergic to unsolicited cowboy charm—about as cuddly as a cactus—which sets a perfect, fate-driven tone for everything that follows.
Then there is Grant, a slightly arrogant bull rider and the local "main event" who crosses her path at just the right moment. Their dynamic is a perfect mix of tension and charm; the banter between Grant’s filthy mouth and Mia’s sass is absolute perfection. From the moment he finds himself in a store aisle holding her red lacy underwear and offering his best cowboy drawl, the chemistry is "chef’s kiss." Grant keeps finding reasons to be around her, and even when he isn’t fully honest about his intentions, it feels like he simply can't stay away.
The small-town atmosphere really stands out, with a nosy, close-knit community that makes the romance feel immersive, like the whole town is quietly rooting for them. Beyond the humor, both characters are working through past experiences that have kept them guarded. Grant’s big smile hides a history that keeps him rooted to the land, and watching them both slowly open up and move forward adds a genuine emotional layer to the story.
The found family element is another highlight, and the Taylor family will officially steal your heart. Although Mia keeps insisting her stay is temporary, Grant is a man of action who consistently shows her exactly why she should stay. It is a beautiful journey of two people fighting for each other, leading to a truly satisfying conclusion.
The audiobook experience, narrated by Andi Eloise and Thomas Oakley, brings these characters to life in a way that makes the story even more engaging. Their performances capture the grit of the rodeo world and the heart of the town perfectly. Huge thanks to the author for sharing this ride—I’m fully obsessed and can’t wait to dive into the rest of the family’s stories.
