Release Date: November 24, 2020
Texas cowboy Shea Montgomery has plans. Big plans. Still mourning the loss of his beloved father, he’s ready to sell the Forget Me Not ranch. He’s finally dusting off his boots, packing up his cowboy hat, and moving to New York City. Maybe he won’t have his horse to ride or a place to call home, but he’s taking his modeling career to the next level and making his dreams come true. First, though, he has to deal with a bunch of corporate types who don’t know the front end of a horse from the back.
Especially this one guy who can’t seem to stay out of trouble.
Or out of Shea’s mind.
Jake Axelrod’s perfect family is shattered when his daughter stops speaking and his husband ends their marriage. Two years later, she remains locked in silence and Jake has closed himself off. His life is structured to the minute, and Jake is convinced he’ll be alone forever, until he’s forced to attend a company retreat at a dude ranch in Texas where he meets a cowboy who sends him spinning out of control.
Jake can’t help falling…off his horse, out of a rowboat, and into Shea’s arms.
And Shea is more than willing to catch him.
Neither man wants to let go, and the time they spend together—whether in New York City or Texas—only makes it harder to be apart. A decision needs to be made: work it out or say good-bye. Jake’s life is in New York, but he can’t walk away from Shea or the ranch, and Shea must decide if the dream of a lifetime will lead him right back to the place where he started, where his heart belongs.

Felice Steven's Forget Me Not is a beautiful romance. As much as I was excited to read this, it's so much better than I could have ever anticipated.
Shea and Jake's romance is amazing. Shea's working on the ranch when Jake attends a work retreat there. And the attraction is instant.
From the start, we see the two sides of Shea's character. He loves the ranch and the work involved. But he's always planned on living elsewhere and making his career as a model full time.
And then there's Jake. He's a businessman through and through who can't resist the handsome cowboy. His experiences on the ranch are anything but impressive. I both felt bad for the man, and delighted by him.
And then there are Jake's issues with his daughter, which is heartbreaking. She hasn't spoken in a couple years and she's the motivation behind every action he takes. When you get to know her, you will love her. She's is a delightful character and her resilience is fantastic. Most of all though is the way she and Shea bond. It will make your heart happy.
Shea and Jake are so perfectly sweet together. I couldn't ask for more from these men. Their relationship develops with many little moments upon more little moments. It's all perfectly natural and charming.
The ranch itself is a character, fully developed and playing a large part in the story. The atmosphere is wonderfully described and the ease Jake and Stacey feel there is beautiful. As well, the author also brings NYC to life, with the many places they go and the busy pace.
The writing is fabulous, with two well developed main characters, and plenty of lovable side characters. I enjoy the obstacles they face, as well as the decisions that have in front of them.
Forget Me Not is a mesmerizing romance. I love every moment of this Felice Stevens tale. And the ending couldn't have been any better.
