Book Review | Southern Comfort – Natasha Madison (Southern Series, Book Two)

Buried secrets never stay hidden in the South.

Olivia
When you find out that your fiancé is arrested for swindling over ten million dollars from his clients, you do what any sane woman would do. You escape reality and go undercover, trading in your city-girl Louboutins for country-pumpkin cowboy boots.

It wasn’t a forever change—it was temporary. I only had to stay here until things back home got straightened out, or so I thought.

Casey

I was riding horses before I was walking, or at least that was what they told me. I always knew I would take over the family farm. It’s in my blood.

Country boy at heart, the minute I saw her dragging her luggage up the gravel driveway I knew she was out of my league.

I shouldn’t have started anything with her, because I knew she was just passing through.

I couldn’t stop it, I fell in love with her. Even though I knew, in the end, she would leave me.

Southern Comfort is the second book in Natasha Madison’s Southern Series. This novel is told in both Casey and Olivia’s point of view.

Olivia is on the run from her past, but as we all know, eventually your past has a way of finding you and biting you in the ass. Now Olivia has some seriously dangerous people after her, all thanks to her ex fiancee and his money laundering skills.

All Casey wanted to do with his life was run the ranch, but when he was younger he found that wasn’t going to be a good enough life for him. After uncovering a hidden talent and finding out he’s pretty good with a computer and has some serious hacking skills, Casey found himself living a double life. He’s now not only the rancher everybody knows, but he also owns his own security business.. and that’s a side of him that nobody will ever know. Or so he thought.

Now it’s a mission of life or death. He has to find who’s after Olivia or risk losing his heart for the second time in his life. The stakes are high and Casey and Olivia are all in.

My Thoughts:

When I first started reading The Southern Series by Natasha Madison, I was most intrigued by Casey and Olivia’s story line. While reading Southern Chance (book 1) I found myself wanting to get to their story as soon as possible. I had to know if Casey would put his heart on the line and I had to know if these two would have their epic happily ever after!

My adrenaline was flowing! I feared for Olivia and fought right alongside Casey while he was trying to protect the girl he loves while trying to also save her from the person who wanted her dead! It was definitely a sit on the edge of your seat type read.

I loved the “city girl falls for a country boy’ trope!

The romance between Casey and Olivia was just as epic as I was hoping it would be. Olivia grew up with perfection as the main focus of her life, thanks to her mother. I loved the fact that she was thrust into a true down home southern family. She experienced first had the way a family should be and should act with one another. And that is what I loved most about this novel. I loved the strong family sense. I loved the fact that Casey’s mom and dad opened their arms and their home to Olivia. And I loved watching Olivia adjust to the strong family vibe that she was missing out on with her own family all along. My heart glowed during the moments with Olivia and the Barnes family.

Now onto Casey. I loved the fact that this country boy was living a double life. He was way more than just a rancher and a farm boy. This man is a serious genius! But that’s a side he keeps hidden from everyone else. This man was swoony as hell and sexy as sin. I loved his vibes throughout this whole novel. I especially loved how he was with Olivia right from the first meeting.

Olivia and Casey could not be more opposite on one side of the spectrum. But if you cross over to the other side of that same spectrum, you’ll realize these two couldn’t be more similar if they tried. They both had past situations disrupt their outlook on life. This fact alone caused their chemistry and bond to be so much more than it initially was. And in the long run, caused me to fall for their characters so much more than I initially thought I could.

Overall, I loved Southern Comfort! I loved the romance, I loved the suspense, and I especially loved the strong sense of family. I’m a sucker for novels that incorporate tight knit family vibes!
