Country Gold (The Wilders Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 2,609 ratings

She's worth more to him than more country gold...

A second chance at true love...

A scandal ended the careers of the Wilder Sisters, the chart-topping country-rock band. When Lexi Wilder's celebrity imploded, Luke Wyatt's took off. Lexi hasn't seen Luke once during his year-long national tour but now he's back to their coastal hometown of Whistle Cove. They once had a special connection, and he was her first love, but Lexi isn't sure she can forgive Luke for choosing fame over her…

"Luke’s unwavering loyalty to Lexi and her family gives this sweet romance unexpected integrity ...Readers looking for a tender romance that leans more toward the emotional than the physical will find this very satisfying." ~ Publishers Weekly

"Country Gold is a chart topper! Heatherly Bell two-steps her new series onto the stage with a sweet but realistic love story. The juxtaposition between Lexi and Luke is unique, as she has spent most of her life on stage and his fame is almost a fluke. Lexi's burn-out is palpable, as if her heartbreak, dimming Luke's hopes of patching things up between them. You don't have to like country music to love this couple and their happily ever after. " ~ 4 stars, In'Dtale magazine, November 2018 issue

"If you love Alphas, you will LOVE Luke." ~ Goodreads reader

"Bell writes romance that will capture your heart." ~ Marina Adair, New York Times Bestselling author

"Bell's romances are the perfect escape." ~ Jamie Farrell/Pippa Grant, USA Today bestselling author

    I love country music and this story shows all the pressures and heartbreak that can be connected with life on the road. A real family story about a family that looks out for each other. Well worth reading

    I found the plot repetitive - the same arguments over and over.
    I liked the characters but ‘the heat’ rose far too quickly and at times there was very little substance to the story.

    This is the first book in Heatherly Bell’s new Wilder Sisters series. The country music backdrop– with a girl group that disbanded after a major scandal and the rising star of the roadie-turned-singer – evokes high-concept, and author Bell puts her own unique twist on this fun plot mash-up. It’s the Dixie Chicks meets A Star is Born, with heartache, tons of roadblocks, and a satisfying happy ending for main characters Lexi and Luke.

    I really loved the relationship growth for Lexi (the oldest Wilder sister, who is trying desperately to keep her family together while she mourns the loss of her relationship with a man whose career has skyrocketed on the back of her band's implosion) and Luke (the roadie whose fortune changes massively by going to work for the Wilders – and who realizes his priorities and goes on a journey to win back the love of his life). It’s a small-town story of going home, and the two people who mature, forgive, and find their way back together.

    If you love alpha males, you’ll love Luke, btw. Both the protagonists of this story and the side characters were developed nicely – loads of humor and heart throughout the story. This book stands alone, but I also look forward to reading the other sisters’ stories.

    The story I had hoped for was lost in a bunch of adolescent cravings. Didn't bother to finish this book.

    With the first book in her new Wilder Sisters series, Heatherly Bell brings us Lexi’s story. We see her come face to face with her old boyfriend and get a front row seat as he tries to rekindle their flame. The premise of the story is interesting and the characters were quick to grab my attention. I would have preferred a little more depth to the backstory of their relationship and the timespan, etc. to give me a deeper picture, but overall a satisfying read. Looking forward to the sister’s stories!

    Country newcomer Luke Wyatt is coming down off of the high of his first big country-wide tour, and he’s exhausted. His body aches, his mind is burned out and his heart hurts from the empty hole she left behind. He knows he needs to get on the songs everyone is stressing him to write, but his first stop has to be home. Whistle Cove, California … and her. He has to make her see she’s everything … and then he can get back on the path of his future.

    Lexi Wilder was once part of a big country sensation herself … until scandal brought them down faster than they could turn around. Now running her Gran’s B & B is keeping her busy while she pretends not to notice all the headlines about him … the one that was too busy to be bothered with her once she wasn’t there by his side anymore … the one who with all of the women clamoring for his attention.
