When Dr. Winter Hamilton finally decides to leave her husband, Rob, she goes back to Chestnut Springs where she hopes to make amends for years of problems that she caused for her sister, Summer. What she doesn't expect is to be welcomed, especially by bullrider Theo Silva, close friend to Summer's newly created family. Sassy Winter is a challenge for Theo, who takes full advantage of her newly single status, but things change for everyone when Theo returns to Chestnut Spings 18 months later.

Reckless is a light accidental pregnancy romance. Both protagonists have lots of baggage, but Winter especially seems unable to shed the insecurities that have shaped her life. Theo is a bit of a caricature of the persistently sweet bullrider that balances well with Winter's personality that screams, "Stay away from me because I'm broken." The plot stretches believability, but contains so much well written dialogue and cute moments that it's still very entertaining. Overall, Reckless is another enjoyable entry in the Chestnut Springs series.
