Rylee Adder is a struggling college student desperate to reconnect with the only family she has left. She finally has her chance when a late-night phone call sends her rushing to Eden, West Virginia—a small mining town with a veiled past.
She arrives ready to console her grieving sister, but instead discovers a distant, secretive woman she hardly recognizes, and Colton Archer, a tattoo-covered troublemaker with a knack for pushing her buttons.
As Rylee battles her growing attraction to Colton, who is as infuriating as he is handsome, she comes face-to-face with a shocking discovery that has her questioning everything.

Review
I received September Doves in return for an honest review from the author as part of the book tour hosted by R&R Book Tours.
Rylee has been hunting for her sister and when she finally get's the call that her sister needs her she leaves her boyfriend and drops everything to rush off the grid to her. She learns that her sister's husband has been murdered and someone is hunting for her. Arriving at her sisters house she encounters a small town with a torture past that's still struggling to survive. She's instantly drawn to Colton even though he sets her off as the pair spend more time together they can't fight the connection.
I love Rylee and Colton together they have this instant chemistry that just sizzles and it works so well together. I had a feeling that at the first meeting that he was just what she needed. I'm so glad she ditched her loser boyfriend when she left. I loved getting to know the rest of the MC crew. Some of the supporting characters are some of my favorites. The marigolds connection hooked me so hard my mom always planted them every spring in the yard. I almost rushed out to find some but I kill all plants.
I haven't read a lot of Robin Hood retellings so I knew I needed to sign up and I'm so glad that I did. September Doves is a captivating, action packed, steamy romance that captures the heart as well as the imagination. I devoured this book in one session it was beautifully written the author has done a amazing job creating characters you can't help falling in love with.
I truly enjoyed every moment of September Doves till the very end. It's a cliffhanger and I was left wanting to throw my kindle across the room. I need more I wasn't ready for it to end. I loved September Doves so much that I ordered the paperback for my shelf. The cover is beautiful it matches the stunning story that it contains. Highly recommend if you enjoy Enemies to Lovers, banter, and steamy connections.
