This quick-and-dirty "choose your own romance" is quite fun and funny, and I enjoyed this break from my norm. While I wouldn't recommend this if you are looking for a plot or even a villain and problems to solve, you will enjoy this if you are looking for a quick getaway and a few laughs. Lauren is you and is visiting a ranch for a week. There are guys to choose from, midnight strolls, dances, skinny-dipping, all choices that will lead in different directions … unless you flip back and choose differently! I grew up on Goosebumps and choose-your-own adventures so I was expecting a bit more choices, and more plot, but for what it was, it was fun, and I recommend it for anyone looking for a bit more personalization in their men and romance.

i really enjoyed this! Choose Your Own Adventure books were a huge favorite of mine as a kid, and now that i've moved almost entirely into reading romance, a CYOR was right up my alley.

the options were all too tempting, the sex was hot, and some of the choices took me into surprise endings. the best part was that i just went back and picked an alternate and went on a whole new 'trail'.

i used adobe digital editions to read this on my computer, and the formatting got messed up a couple of times but i think it was the program rather than the upload.

now i can't wait to read the other two in the set!

This was another interesting book from MIMA--a "choose your own adventure" style romance. I liked the ranch themes, and the dozens of different storylines it would take you based on where you decided the story should go.

Not all of the links for some of my storylines worked, but it might be because I received an unproofed copy from Netgalley, which made some of the storylines difficult to follow or find the next part. Otherwise, it was fun and a quick read.

Cute adult version of a "choose your own adventure/which way" book. Parts were really funny, but it didn't work really well with the Kindle app. Some of the links did not work on second read through or when going back to change the choice via the menu at the end of the book
