Loving Her Crazy by Kira Archer

Iris Clayton is supposed to be on a tropical island, soaking up the sun and a few dozen mojitos. Instead, she’s snowbound in Chicago overnight, holding out hope the morning flight isn’t cancelled. Good thing there’s a hot cowboy to keep her company. And it doesn’t hurt that Mr. Tall, Calm, and Sun-Streaked can make her tremble with one sultry look from under his well-worn hat.

Montana rancher Nash Wallace sucks at ice skating, has no clue what a selfie is, and may be a tad averse to breaking and entering, but being with Iris makes him want to bend a few rules. Or, hell, throw them out the window altogether. She’s fun, spontaneously crazy, and can rock a Muppet fur coat like no one’s business. He’s falling hard and fast, but wanting to spend his life with someone after one night is insane.

Except, nothing has ever felt so right, and neither of them wants the night to end…

When a snowstorm strands two strangers in Chicago, they decide to spend a fun, passion-filled night exploring the city and each other.

Honestly, that sentence pretty much sums up the book. Iris is funny and adventurous. She definitely knows how to push boundaries and she has fun doing it. Nash was her complete opposite. He’s a serious rancher that plays by the rules so it was fun watching Iris bring out his wild side.

While this book wasn’t horrid, I found it to be a tad bit boring in spots and had a hard time getting into it at the start, which surprised me considering how much I loved the second book in this series. I spent most of the time questioning the believability of the plot—a snowstorm was so severe it canceled their flights but they decided it was fine enough to go trampling through the city during the middle of the night. If the snowstorm cancelled their flights, why would these things even be open? Also, how did they not freeze to death tramping around in frigid weather.

Their sex scenes in the book also had me rolling my eyes. The first time was in a planetarium and the second was on a Ferris wheel.

As this book took place in just one night, their relationship went from instant lust to instant love. And while it was obvious they were attracted to each other, I would have liked to have seen a bit more development.

Overall, if you’re looking for a fluffy instant lust to love book that’s reminiscent of a cheesy romantic comedy film, this is the book for you.
